Fränkisches Wunderland, Theme park in Plech, Germany

Fränkisches Wunderland was a leisure park by Plech in Upper Franconia, reachable via the Plech exit of the A9 between Bayreuth and Nuremberg. It grew from its Pentecost 1976 opening into three areas: a fairy-tale forest with an electric fairy-tale display, a summer toboggan run and a mini railway through a dinosaur land; the western town Kansas City with the Kansas-City Express roller coaster, a ghost town, a mine with gold panning and a Ferris wheel with western gondolas; and an action area with a climbing mountain called Himalaja, a dragon tower with slides and a 3,000 m² play hall.

The park opened at Pentecost 1976 and was continually expanded over the following decades. Three themed areas emerged: the fairy-tale forest, the western town Kansas City and an action area. The first roller coaster, the Kansas City Express, arrived in 1993; a Ferris wheel with western gondolas followed in 2001 for the park's 25th anniversary. The park closed in 2013, and Robert Dahl bought the site in 2022 with plans to reopen it as Karls Erlebnis-Dorf Plech in 2027.

The park's name refers to the Franconian region around Plech in Upper Franconia. Its shows included "Geisterstunde in Tombstone", an electric ghost show, and ritual dances of Aztec Indians performed in an original Mandan earth lodge. The western town was called Kansas City.

The park lay by the A9 motorway between Bayreuth and Nuremberg, reachable via the Plech exit. It was closed in 2013; from September 2016 it opened only for individual events. Robert Dahl bought the site and plans to run it as Karls Erlebnis-Dorf Plech, with opening planned for 2027.

The park's last big addition came in 2012, when the WaterShots water-bomb slingshot opened in the western town on the spot of the former Sling-Shot, a ride that had operated from 2004 until 2011. In 2014 the gates stayed shut for the whole season and some rides were dismantled.
