Efteling Map and Brochure (1986 – 2025)

Centered on a circular courtyard that draws guests into its gothic concert hall, the Efteling Danse Macabre map guides you through one of the park’s eeriest corners. The new land coils around its show building like a stage set—narrow alleys, candlelit façades, and that chapel-turned-ride at the core.

With this layout in hand, it’s easier to track dining tucked behind the organ loft, find the nearest tram stop back to Symbolica, and dodge the evening crowd that clusters for the overture’s finale. Think of it as Efteling’s waltz with the weird—half fairytale, half fever dream.
