It is believed that the first Roller Coasters were built in the late 18th to early 19th centuries in Russia and France. These coasters were based on "Russian Mountains", sled rides on hills of ice.

The first modern roller coaster was patented in 1872 by John G. Taylor. A ride based on his design was built at the now-closed Savin Rock in West Haven, CT
