King Arthur Carrousel, Historic carousel in Fantasyland, Disneyland, Anaheim, United States
The King Arthur Carrousel is a carousel in Fantasyland featuring 68 white horses arranged in four concentric circles, each hand-painted with ornate decorations and golden accents. The horses display varying decorative styles and traditional carousel design elements.
The carousel was originally built in 1922 for Sunnyside Beach Park in Toronto and relocated to Disneyland in 1954. The Arrow Development Company later modified it for its new location.
The carousel displays medieval design elements with decorative panels showing scenes from Arthurian legends and plays Disney film musical arrangements. Visitors see hand-painted details that visually tell classical stories.
The carousel operates continuously throughout park hours and can be enjoyed by children and adults, with safety belts and modified seating for visitors with mobility needs. Access is straightforward and the ride lasts just a few minutes.
Each of the 68 horses has its own name and specific decorative elements, with the lead horse Jingles standing out with bells and Mary Poppins-themed ornaments. These individual details make each ride a small discovery.
