Toverland sets a new benchmark in the Avalon theme area with the construction of an extraordinary magic clock named Pendulus Magicus. Standing at an impressive height of 8.5 meters, this clock will not only be a visual highlight but also the musical centerpiece of the Garden Tour attraction’s station building.
Pendulus Magicus: A Masterpiece of Magic and Technology
Avalon, known for its medieval-inspired design, receives a unique attraction with Pendulus Magicus. Originally scheduled to debut last summer, this magic clock enriches the theme area, which has already been expanded with four new attractions, including the popular Garden Tour. Visitors can look forward to a tour through a herb garden, now made even more impressive with the musical spectacle of Pendulus Magicus chiming every quarter-hour.
Design and Inspiration: Between Challenge and Art
The design of Pendulus Magicus posed a special challenge. The concept, crafted by Patrick van Meijl, features an unusual shape: narrow at the base and widening towards the top. This structure made integrating the technical equipment challenging and complicated the planning of maintenance access. Deviating from the original design, the clock’s roof is made of reed instead of grass, giving it an authentic and unique appearance. While the clock’s concept reminisces of the famous It's a Small World clock at Disneyland Paris, it boasts individual adjustments that make it a special highlight in Toverland.
Anticipation for the Commissioning
The commissioning of Pendulus Magicus is planned for later this season. With its inverted design and moving elements, such as opening shutters, the magic clock promises to be a captivating spectacle. Anticipation among visitors and fans of the amusement park is growing, as Toverland is known for delighting its guests with innovative and magical attractions.
Avalon’s Latest Sensation: Pendulus Magicus
Toverland adds to Avalon's attractions with Pendulus Magicus, a magical highlight that is unique in both form and function. Designed as a musical spectacle, the magic clock will captivate visitors visually and acoustically. With the upcoming commissioning of Pendulus Magicus, Toverland once again sets a milestone in the world of amusement park attractions.
