How many buildings are in the park?
About 350 models of buildings from EU countries at 1:25 scale. Many move: trains run, windmills turn and Vesuvius "erupts" at regular intervals.
What happened to the British models after Brexit?
The UK models stayed in the park but their presentation was updated, and the change is explained openly as part of the park's educational content.

Each is built by hand from the original building's plans, and some use stone from the actual site. A single model can cost hundreds of thousands of euros.
