Germany to get Asterix theme park

French leisure company, Compagnie des Alpes, is to transform Germany’s Belantis theme park near Leipzig into an Asterix and Obelix theme park by 2031.

According to Theme Parks EU, the park will be developed in phases and will open as Idefix’ Abenteuerland (Dogmatix Adventure Land), inspired by Obelix’s white terrier dog, in northern spring 2026.

By 2031, the park will include multiple themed lands, attractions and immersive experiences, based on different locations in the world of the Gauls, and will be named Asterix Park Deutschland.

Compagnie des Alpes currently operates Asterix Park in Paris, the only other one in the world. The new site in Leipzig covers about 80 hectares, with roughly 41 hectares reserved for future developments.
