Steam Carousel, Indoor carousel in Efteling, Netherlands

The Steam Carousel features 22 wooden horses, 2 carved pigs, and 4 gondola coaches rotating in a clockwise direction inside the Carousel Palace.

Built in 1895, this carousel traveled through Dutch fairs with the Janvier family until 1956 when Efteling purchased it for permanent installation.

The carousel maintains one of five remaining Gavioli organs worldwide, playing traditional Dutch fairground melodies during each two-minute ride.

Children under one meter tall require adult supervision, and wheelchair users need to transfer from their mobility device to access the ride.

The original König steam engine from 1895 remains on display, although the carousel now operates through modern electrical power systems.
