    'Europa-Park Children's House Little Heroes'

    As a central charity project to mark Europa-Park's 50th birthday, a new building and guest house complex at the Silver Lake City will be home to a special children's house for ‘Little Heroes’. 

'Europa-Park Children's House Little Heroes'

Since 2025, a new place of life and joy has been emerging at the Europa-Park Resort.

As a central charity project, initiated on the 50th anniversary of Europa-Park, a children's home for ‘little heroes’ is being built in Silver Lake City. With this children's home, the Mack family wants to create a place where families can regain strength and lightness and a sense of normality after their child has suffered from serious cancer. The children's home is being realised with the support of the 'RTL – Wir helfen Kindern' foundation, the German Children's Cancer Foundation in Bonn and the non-profit association Stelzenmännchen in Karlsruhe, as well as many generous donors.

Together with their parents and siblings, the ‘little heroes’ can enjoy a week at Europa-Park, the Rulantica water world and many other attractions, leaving the stressful everyday life of the clinic behind them. The children's house can accommodate up to five families at a time.

A place of rest and joy for families in difficult times

For the children and their families, the stay at the Europa-Park Children's House Kleine Helden is completely free of charge and lasts five days. From the diverse attractions and offerings of Europa-Park to the Rulantica water world, excursions to the Taubergießen nature reserve, a visit to the Europa-Park TALENT ACADEMY or YULLBE, the region offers countless opportunities to rediscover the joy of life.

Find new paths together

The families of retired Europa-Park employees are supported on a voluntary basis. A close partner is the German Children's Cancer Foundation in Bonn, which is responsible for the professional selection of families.

For Europa-Park owner Roland Mack, this is a project very close to his heart:

"For our 50th anniversary, we decided to create a permanent facility for families facing serious challenges, in addition to the many large-scale social initiatives we have. The target group are children with cancer who are slowly returning to normal life after their serious illness. A week-long stay with their families at Europa-Park and the Rulantica water world is intended to restore their zest for life and help them return to normality. Family cohesion is particularly important after the severe stress of cancer. Not only the sick child itself, but also its siblings and parents have been through a great deal. Our goal: to further support healing through the joy of life."

Foundation RTL – Wir helfen Kindern e.V.

The new Children's House is being built in close cooperation and with the support of the foundation ‘RTL – Wir helfen Kindern e.V.’ (the RTL children's charity). The main aim of the foundation is to provide sustainable help for hundreds of thousands of children and young people in need. Since 1996, the foundation has donated more than €287 million to thousands of selected children's aid projects in Germany and around the world.
‘Together with Europa-Park in Rust, DJ BoBo and the Mack family, we can achieve a great deal. At the Little Heroes Children's House, families with seriously ill children are given a new joy of life, which will make a decisive contribution to the healing process of these children. The Mack family has not only created an incredibly entrepreneurial life's work, but has also shown a huge heart for so many children for many, many years. The foundation ‘RTL – Wir helfen Kindern e.V.’ foundation is planning a long-term co-operation with Europa-Park. This will be a fantastic alliance of help,‘ says Wolfram Kons, Chairman of the ‘RTL – Wir helfen Kindern e.V.' foundation.’
