Hey students! Did you know that Tivoli Gardens opened way back in 1843? Georg Carstensen convinced King Christian VIII to let him build this amazing amusement park in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was named after the Tivoli gardens in Paris and Rome. Even today, it's one of the oldest operating amusement parks in the world!

During World War II, when Denmark was occupied by Nazi Germany (1940-1945), Tivoli Gardens remained open. However, some parts of the park were damaged by Nazi sympathizers in 1944. The Danish people's love for Tivoli made them quickly rebuild it - showing their strength and resistance against the occupation.
