History
The park's name is derived from that of a local legend, "Lieu-dit des Trois Curés", which tells the story of the park's locations between three communes; Milizac, Bourg-Blanc, and Coat-Méal. The legend says that the resident Priest of each jurisdiction wanted to meet at an inn, but couldn't, as they were unable to leave their parish's territory. To overcome the said obstacle, a triangular table was built at the crossroads between the three municipalities, and each could sit on one side of the table while in the company of the others. During their meetings, they could be served by the local inn. In the late 1980s, park co-founder Jean-Pierre Bonnefoy worked as a nighttime Taxicab, taxi driver, and had grown tired of the job. In 1989, Jean-Pierre and his brother Francis established a small Campsite, campground, which at the time had only 25 pitches. At first, business was slow. However, in order to attract and keep potential customers, the brothers began to install various games and playground utilities. As attendance increased and the park began to gain a solid reputation among park-goers, a go-kart track was installed, and 2001 saw the addition of Grand Huit, the park's first major roller coaster. The roller coaster was attributed to be the cause towards a 20% increase in park attendance, from 80,000 to 100,000 visitors. La Récré Des 3 Curés continued to invest in new attractions while maintaining the park and campground. In 2011, the children of the Bonnefoy brothers began to share park management and director duties. The park began to create and run live shows starting in 2017. For the 2019 season, La Récré invested €2.5 million into a brand new reception building, which would contain park offices and ticket sales. The work was carried out by 24 different firms, 22 of whom were from the Finistère region. In recent years, La Récré has also begun implemented thematic areas around the park; Celts, Celtic and Maya civilization, Mayan culture has since found itself integrated with various attractions. This effort began with Vertika, a major €5 million looping coaster from German manufacturer Gerstlauer, which opened for the park's 30th anniversary in 2020 and represented their largest investment to date. Targeting an annual attendance of 300,000 visitors in 2025, La Récré followed this up with the €1.2 million Valley Of Dinos precinct for 2024, featuring their third permanent roller coaster Jeepo' Dino. Plans were announced in July 2024 to build an tall drop tower from Funtime (manufacturer), Funtime, which is intended to open in Spring 2025 as the third-tallest of its kind in France.Attractions
