Legoland
June 7: the first Legoland opens in Denmark

1968, 45 years ago, the first Legoland Park opened in Denmark – called Legoland Billund. This park was right across the street from the Lego factory. It featured expansive cityscapes modeled in Lego bricks. 625,000 will visit the park within the first year.

The rich story of LEGO is a Pixar Video I talked about on Dorkazine
