With the works at Paris for the Olympic Games from 2024, the merry-go-round had to leave its location with a view of the Tour Eiffel.
And it is the Pontellois-Combalusiens who can now benefit from it.
“If I listen to myself, I would go for a little ride on this pretty merry-go-round, it is too beautiful. Thanks to the town hall of Pontault-Combault for the happiness of small children and older children, ”said Martine.
” Very good initiative “
“This merry-go-round is not the original,” Moustapha said. The original, an Italian, dated from 1800. The horses were made of wood, it took 4 people to carry them! The current ones have been redone identically but in polystyrene ”.
And in addition to taking care of the ticket office, “you have to come 30 to 45 minutes before the opening for cleaning and maintenance,” he said.
And the success is there, the inhabitants are delighted to have this attraction.
And even non-residents, like Magali and Rémi, from Tournan-en-Brie with their two children:
“Very good initiative, especially since at the moment there is nothing. The possibility of giving an activity for children is great to keep them occupied. “
And his wife adds: “It entertains the children and it’s a very nice ride as well. “
You have all the school holidays to come and enjoy it by paying 2.50 euros for a ride!
