About Us
read moreAlton Towers Resort has been a world-renowned haven of fun and adventure for almost 200 years! Despite what you may think, the castle-like structure in the heart of the theme park isn't fake and isn't a castle - It's 100% authentic and was once the stately home of a wealthy family. Inspired by Disneyland, the modern park was designed to be home to multiple, other-worldly spaces, grounded in English Heritage. The theme park opening at Alton Towers included the Corkscrew - Britain's first double loop rollercoaster - plus the Pirate Ship, Cine 2000 and the Wildlife Museum.
