Prince Albert II and his family opened the Monaco section of Hamburg’s Miniatur Wunderland. The Regent (66), his wife Princess Charlène (46) and the nine-year-old twins Jacques and Gabriella started the first Formula 1 race in the mini version of the dwarf state on Thursday evening. The Prince’s Palace, the harbor with luxurious yachts and the casino can also be seen in the detailed, 36 square meter exhibition. The operators had been working on implementing their ideas for years.
Regular visits are not permitted on Royals Day
The miniature wonderland in the historic Speicherstadt has been attracting millions of visitors since 2001 and is the largest model railway system in the world. The model area is currently more than 1600 square meters. The exhibition, with a track length of around 17,000 meters, will continue to grow in the coming years. Before the official opening of the Monaco part, the Monegasque royal family was able to get to know the popular tourist attraction in detail on a private tour. It was closed to regular visitors that day, but you can see the new part from Friday.
The couple was then expected to attend a cocktail reception with invited guests. The short trip to the Hanseatic city was supposed to end in the evening.
