Since opening day back in 1955, Sleeping Beauty Castle has called Guests of all ages to its gates-standing tall as a symbol of the dreams and magic of Disneyland Park!

From the time Walt Disney began his plans for his "magical little park" called "Disneyland", he had dreams of building a fairytale castle as its centerpiece. With help from his trusty Imagineers, and influences from palaces like Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria and the Château de Chenonceau in France, Sleeping Beauty Castle began taking form. And although it's seen its share of additions and re-imaginings over the decades, it remains an iconic landmark of Disney Parks around the world.

Throughout the year, you may come upon Sleeping Beauty Castle undergoing a transformation-whether shifting for the season, getting ready for a celebration, or simply adding more magic to her sparkle. But no matter how the castle may change, you can rest assured it will always be a beloved piece of Disneyland Park, welcoming one and all to make their dreams come true… even you!
