* "La Fontaine de Cendrillon" (or Fountain of Cinderella),is a bronze statue located in the central of Fantasyland is named after the fairy tale heroine who became popular in France in 1967, and served as the inspiration for Disney's 1950 animated classic, "Cinderella. This fountain is known as "Rags to Riches" because if you stand (actually, you may have to kneel) in front of Cinderella and look at the painted mural behind it on the Castle wall, a painted image of a crown appears to be sitting on top of the princess' head. Although an adult may have to get low to see it, this was designed intentionally so that when children look at the fountain, they can clearly see the crowned princess. The Sword in the Stone Ceremony takes place several times daily in the area behind Cinderella Castle and in front of Cinderella's Golden Carousel in Fantasyland. Presided over by Merlin the Magician, a child is chosen from the audience to pulling the magical sword, Excalibur, from the stone. He or she is then appointed "temporary ruler of the realm."
*The opening day attractions in Fantasyland were, Dumbo the Flying Elephant, It's a Small World, Snow Whites Adventure, The Mad Tea Party, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, The Mickey Mouse Revue and Cinderella's Golden Carousel.
