Paul Bunyan Land

Paul Bunyan Land is an amusement park in Brainerd, Minnesota, founded in 1950, which is today located on This Old Farm.

[2] In 1963, during the 20-week season it was open, the park had 200,000 annual visitors, and was pictured in Holiday, Redbook, and National Geographic magazines.

[3] The park grew over time to include over 40 rides surrounded by 30 buildings, among them the train depot built by Disney for Iron Will, a movie filmed in Duluth.

However, This Old Farm was interested in keeping the entire park and bought the statues of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox as well as the rides.

The family-owned business moved the park onto its land six miles east of Brainerd on State Highway 18.
