Best Answer

It was opened in 1940, when Walter Knott built Ghost Town to give folks waiting for the Chicken Dinner something to do. It started in 1920 as a roadside stand selling berries. A coffee shop and small store were open by 1927. A dining room was added in 1934 and by 1941 it had expanded to a 600 seat restaurant. By then several shows and attractions had been added and in 1947 the farm was officially named Knott's Berry Farm. The first ride was a narrow gauge railroad opened in 1956. Between 1968 and 1975 the first thrill rides were built, including the world's first 360 degree roller coaster.
