Children's dream
A children's carousel at Allerheiligenkirmes
Kindertraum is part of the children's attractions at Soest Allerheiligenkirmes. Amid the big rides, historic façades and colourful funfair stalls, children's carousels offer a dedicated area for the youngest visitors. The official site map for 2026 also lists the attraction under the name Kindertraum.
This mix is especially important for families: while older funfair fans try out the fast rides, small children can enjoy a ride at their own pace. Kindertraum is therefore a possible stop on a shared walk through the old town.

Kindertraum at Allerheiligenkirmes
Allerheiligenkirmes turns the whole of Soest city centre into a large fairground. Alongside family attractions, there are roller coasters, round rides and numerous stalls. Kindertraum adds an attraction for young visitors to the programme.
The name Kindertraum is used by several showmen. The rides may therefore differ in design and theme. For your visit to Soest, the current location on the funfair map is the best guide.
Kindertraum: The ride experience for children
This is one of the classic children's rides. The focus is not on chasing speed records, but on a carousel experience where children can feel the movement at close quarters. The ride becomes a personal highlight when they can choose a seat on a children's ride for themselves for the first time.
The design is especially important for rides like these. Different seats, vehicles or figures can make a carousel ride appealing. The best way to see exactly what the Soest ride offers is to look at it in person. You can also get a good sense of how it moves.
Background: Children's carousels as funfair classics
Children's rides have been a fixture at German fairs for generations. They make the funfair enjoyable even for visitors who are not yet ready for the bigger rides. In a historic place like Soest, they provide a lovely contrast to the tall, fast rides.
Whether it's the first ride of the day or the end of a funfair stroll, Kindertraum represents the part of a fair where small experiences often stay in your memory the longest.

Who is Kindertraum suitable for?
A children's ride is especially suitable for families whose children are just starting to discover funfairs. It's a good idea to watch a ride together before getting on. That way, your child can decide whether they are ready to ride or would rather watch a little longer.
The rules on minimum age, height and required adult supervision are displayed at each ride. So check the information at the ticket booth and ask if you are unsure. You can find more attractions for younger visitors in the attractions overview.
