About Madurodam
Dutch heroes and highlights
On July 2, 1952, Princess Beatrix officially opened Madurodam. From day one, it has been more than just a theme park showcasing the best of the Netherlands: it was founded as a living tribute to war hero George Maduro, and as a fundraiser for charitable causes.
Through miniatures, hands-on activities, and indoor attractions, visitors discover the heroes and highlights that define the Netherlands.
