The The Emperor's new Clothes is one of the storytelling fairytales in the Fiarytale forest like most of the most recent depictions are instead of the more static ones (Hans en Grietje, Doornroosje, Kabouterdorp).

De Nieuwe Kleren van de Keizer

The Emperor's new Clothes is a fairy tale about an emperor who is too vain to admit that he is put on his number by two tailors, and therefore, assuming wearing beautiful clothes, walks naked in a parade. It was written by the famous Danish fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen. With the original title "Kejserens nye klæder" it was first published in 1837 as part of Andersens third collection with fairy tales.

 

In the Efteling it is the twenty-sixth representation on the route in the Sprookjesbos. It was opened at the end of the jubilee year 2012 on a new route between the Girl with the Swordsticks and the Fairytale Tree. The fairy tale is put into rhyme by the voice of Paul van Vliet, while against the backdrop of a tall palace wall, built in a mixture of baroque and rococo elements, a tea dome and a graceful gate, a performance is given by moving dolls. and shadow play. It was designed by Pim-Martijn Sanders. The music is an adaptation of the Musette in D major by Johann Sebastian Bach. Previously, the fairytale was present in the Fairy Tale Museum, where since 1963 an empty clothes hanger was on display in a display case.
