EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and experience the thrilling charm of Copenhagen's Tivoli Gardens with this photograph of the iconic Rutschbanen, also known as the Helter Skelter Ride. Circa 1905, this image transports us to a bygone era of Danish entertainment. Tivoli Gardens, established in 1843, is the second oldest amusement park in the world and a beloved cultural institution in Copenhagen. The park's rich history is reflected in the vintage attractions that continue to delight visitors, including the Rutschbanen. The Rutschbanen, or "slide" in German, is a classic wooden rollercoaster and one of the oldest operating rides in the world. Its distinctive red and white stripes and intricate carvings have captivated generations of thrill-seekers. The ride's name, "Helter Skelter," is believed to have originated from the Danish phrase "helte skilte," which means "healthy signals," a reference to the ride's safety signals. As you gaze at this photograph, imagine the excitement of the crowd gathered around the Rutschbanen, eagerly awaiting their turn to climb the ladder and slide down the twists and turns of this wooden marvel. The laughter and joy of the riders, the vibrant colors of the surrounding fairground attractions, and the festive atmosphere of Tivoli Gardens all come alive in this image. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of Tivoli Gardens and the Rutschbanen, which continue to captivate and entertain visitors from around the world.
