    “It is the oldest merry-go-round in Europe that is still working. It was built in 1890. Today it is a listed building,” says Hrabalek proudly. Proud above all because it now belongs to him. In 2016, the now 74-year-old found out that the carousel was going to be sold: "I fulfilled my childhood dream and bought the carousel that I drove with for the first time when I was five."

        The merry-go-round with the twelve wooden horses is Europe's oldest merry-go-round. It was built in 1890. At that time, the carousel and organ were driven by hand by staff in the basement; a motor was installed later. In 1984 the merry-go-round was listed as a monument due to its uniqueness and extensively renovated.
