Rügenpark, Miniature park in Gingst, Germany

Rügenpark is a leisure park on the edge of Gingst on the island of Rügen, covering 40,000 m². It combines around 15 rides included in the admission price, among them the Luna Loop that turns passengers upside down, with roughly 100 scale models (1:25) of international landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty, the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Reichstag. One section reproduces Rügen itself with its main buildings; a train called Emma circles the grounds.

The sources do not record when or why Rügenpark was founded.
