History The London Eye was originally owned by
Tussauds Group, British Airways, and the Marks Barfield family.
Tussauds bought out the other investors to gain 100% ownership of the wheel in 2006. In 2007, Merlin Entertainment bought the Tussauds Group and now maintains full ownership of the London Eye.
Слайд 4 The formal opening ceremonies for the London Eye
were held on December 31, 1999 as part of
