Erich von Dänikens "Mysteries of the World" is an ambitious project. It is a project which is full of opportunity for you and future generations. Of course it is also a business opportunity for companies, the tourist industry, and private individuals. Needless to say, in the planning phase, there are also business risks.
"Mysteries of the World" is a one of a kind adventure park in Interlaken. Integrated into the natural beauties of the region, the park presents the wonders and mysteries related to such questions as where our civilization came from and where it is going. It is a dynamic, young, and international undertaking which asks questions and looks for answers to the inexplicable, yet real phenomena on our planet.
If you are interested in sharing in the enthusiasm about this project; if you want to seize an opportunity, are willing to take a calculated risk with an investment, if you want to take part in the process of opening the door to a "fantastic future" for yourself and the young people of the world, then why not participate in "Mysteries of the World" through small contributions to the Erich von Däniken Foundation "Erich von Däniken - The Mysteries of the World"?
The Foundation was set up in Interlaken in October 1997 specificially for the realization of this project. The initiator of the idea, Erich von Däniken, has not only invested his own money but also donated a part of his immense archives of manuscripts, slides, films, books and research papers. After his death, the remaining part of his lifes work will also go to the Foundation. The Foundation maintains a wide-range of contacts in Europe and overseas with similar organizations such as the "Archaeology, Astronautics and SETI Research Association (AAS RA)" as well as with sponsors and donors. The Foundation is the guiding force behind "Mysteries of the World." The Foundation trustees ensure that the ideas, the knowledge and the wealth of research that the Foundation has in its possession are maintained even after the death of Erich von Däniken and that the education and theme park remains true to the statutes of the Foundation. The trustees therefore participate in the decisions of the Board of Directors of the operating company "Mysteries of the World."
An independent research institute "The Great Mysteries of the World," founded by the AAS RA (Archaeology, Astronautics and SETI Research Association) and their scientific directors, Ulrich Dopatka and Giorgio Tsoukalos, will ensure that the theme park is constantly renewed and kept fresh. The institute will introduce new mysteries into the park and will constantly check the topicality of existing themes with the help of experts. Contacts with other research institutions will be made and developed to help establish "Mysteries of the World" as a centre of popular science which is worth supporting. Archiving and information for the media about relevant, exciting scientific news is another task of the institute. On the educational level, the institute can initiate research exercises based on the themes at the park. It should also provide a forum for greater interdisciplinary research. The institute can also sponsor projects such as promising excavations thus turning the institute into a kind of patron. And finally, it will organize meetings and conferences. The institute will support itself financially through the evaluation of research results, through publication rights, TV programs and donations. The headquarters are at the theme park.
Thanking you for your support, we remain
