"Drachenjagd" is German for "Dragon Hunt". |
The Drachenjagd was originally built with a jousting LEGO Knight occupying the first row of the first car. This was removed years later when the train's restraints were changed from a shared t-bar to individual lap bars. |
Based on information obtained from the park's preview center, this roller coaster was originally planned to open with the park in 2002 and be called Bergwerkbahn (German for "Mine Train"). The ride did not appear until the 2003 season and is located in a different area than originally planned. |
