The park was formerly known as 'Hansaland' when it first opened in 1977.
The hypercoaster 'Der Schwur des Kärnan' features a 73-meter tall tower, making it one of the tallest roller coasters in Europe.
The park is built on the grounds of what was originally the first Legoland outside of Denmark, which closed in 1976.
Some coasters are integrated into the park's maritime architecture, such as the 'Fluch von Novgorod', which combines a dark ride section with a 90-degree drop.
The park is a member of the European Hanseatic League's cultural associations, maintaining historical references throughout its theming.
Hansa-Park is Germany's only seaside amusement park, uniquely situated directly on the Baltic Sea coast in Sierksdorf. The park is themed around the historical Hanseatic League, featuring architecture and motifs inspired by medieval trade cities. Its flagship attraction, 'Kärnan', is a hypercoaster featuring a unique vertical lift hill and a beyond-vertical drop. The park spans 46 hectares and organizes its rides into themed zones such as the Hanseatic Fair, Mexico, and the Land of the Vikings. It utilizes its coastal location by offering sea views from several high-altitude attractions. The park emphasizes family-oriented shows, a dedicated water-themed area, and indoor play zones. It is divided into 11 distinct themed worlds, each reflecting different aspects of European history and maritime culture.
