The project began several weeks ago and is expected to continue through September 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Sleeping Beauty Castle, officially known as Le Ch\u00e2teau de la Belle au Bois Dormant, remains one of the most photographed locations at Disneyland Paris. While the work is taking place, white scrim and themed construction walls have been installed around the front of the castle and now wrap around the bridge area. The walls are designed with castle-inspired artwork to help maintain the setting for guest photos while the refurbishment continues.<\/p>\n<p>In a post shared by Instagram user DLP Works, we got our first look at the project and the temporary walls surrounding the work.<\/p>\n<p><a data-fslightbox=\"1\" data-type=\"image\" aria-label=\"Open fullscreen lightbox with current image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DLR-DLPWorks-Castle-Bridge-Update-May-2026-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DLR-DLPWorks-Castle-Bridge-Update-May-2026-1.jpg\" alt=\"In a post shared by Instagram user DLP Works, we got our first look at the project and the temporary walls surrounding the work.\" class=\"wp-image-1429317\"\/><\/a><br \/>\n<a data-fslightbox=\"1\" data-type=\"image\" aria-label=\"Open fullscreen lightbox with current image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DLR-DLPWorks-Castle-Bridge-Update-May-2026-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" data-id=\"1429321\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DLR-DLPWorks-Castle-Bridge-Update-May-2026-7.jpg\" alt=\"In a post shared by Instagram user DLP Works, we got our first look at the project and the temporary walls surrounding the work.\" class=\"wp-image-1429321\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a data-fslightbox=\"1\" data-type=\"image\" aria-label=\"Open fullscreen lightbox with current image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DLR-DLPWorks-Castle-Bridge-Update-May-2026-4-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" data-id=\"1429324\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DLR-DLPWorks-Castle-Bridge-Update-May-2026-4-1.jpg\" alt=\"In a post shared by Instagram user DLP Works, we got our first look at the project and the temporary walls surrounding the work.\" class=\"wp-image-1429324\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The castle is partially closed during the project, though guests are still able to reach the interior through alternate routes. Access remains available from behind the castle in Fantasyland, as well as through the cave entrance near Adventureland.<\/p>\n<p>Several castle experiences remain open during the refurbishment. Guests can still visit La Tani\u00e8re du Dragon, the cavern beneath the castle featuring the Sleeping Beauty dragon, as well as the castle\u2019s boutique and walkthrough areas.<\/p>\n<p>The construction walls are expected to stay in place through September, meaning guests visiting Disneyland Paris over the summer will likely encounter the refurbishment work and temporary construction walls and scrim during their trip.<\/p>\n<p>Will the bridge work impact your visit to Disneyland Paris this summer?
