The European Federation for the Education of Children of Occupational Travellers (EFECOT) has launched a five-language website for adults and children on the roots and history of 'the Kermis,' which includes the cinema, the circus, the zoo, the amusement and theme park and the waxworks. Four organisations, the Markt-und Schaustellermuseum in Essen Germany, the Musseo della Giostra e dello Spettacolo Populare in Bergantino Italy, the municipal museum Het Markiezenhof in Bergen op Zoom Netherlands and the National Fairground Archive in Sheffield, England, have worked with EFECOT to submit the website as a project in the European Commission's Culture 2000 programme. The website was designed to educate people about the history of fairs. The website is located at www.fairsarefun.net.
