Campanopolis is a must-visit for families looking for a unique and educational escape into a medieval-themed world of recycled artistry and history.
About This Place
Campanopolis is a unique, eccentric historical theme park on the outskirts of Buenos Aires in González Catán, created over 30 years by Argentine artist Herman Van der Heide. The sprawling estate features full-scale replicas of iconic European and pre-Columbian structures — Spanish castles, European chapels, Mayan temples, and Egyptian pyramids — all handbuilt from recycled materials. Truly one-of-a-kind, it is a remarkable family attraction and local cultural landmark.
