If I were building a Disney Park in Germany, where would I put it?

[MagicKingdom4Ever]

So I'm going on a European vacation in a few weeks, and in hype of it, I have ideas to build a new European park. Of course, this would never come to reality what with Disneyland Paris already being the major resort in the area, but I still think it would be fun to design. I was originally thinking to have it in Munich, but I'm wondering if it would be the best location or not. (I'm not going to the Paris area on the trip so I won't be seeing Disneyland Paris, even though I will still be seeing parts of France. I had a friend of my mother's go there, and she brought me back some French candy as well as the most exclusive pin to the park, which is of Phantom Manor.)

While the location is still being discussed, I would like to talk a little bit about this resort. In a way, this is an alternate version of Euro Disneyland, except it was done better. I've been told that Germany is the crossroads of Europe, so that would make it a perfect place for travelers across the continent. Also, Germany seems to be pretty westernized as far as cultural aspects go, and they are not as anti-American as France was. Third of all, it will be where I am spending most of my time on my trip, even though I will be visiting parts of France, Switzerland, Austria, Czechia, and the United Kingdom. Although it would have lots of similarities to the French park, it will still put lots of focus on Germany. I would say that Germany would be easier to work with than France because Disney has more of a history there (Their first animated movie came from a German tale and Walt himself had German ancestry.)

Before I tell more about what this German Disneyland will be like, I need a location.

Berlin, I‘ve already done it

I've also been seriously considering a park with German as one of the main languages (Portuguese is another), but in a made-up location, although it went nowhere fast, because I can't come up with a name for this fictitious location.

In any case, according to William Silvester in his book on the history of overseas Disney parks, when they were choosing locations for a Disney park in Europe, Germany was nixed as a possible location because "it was found that most Germans preferred to take their vacations in other countries." If not for that, I'm sure that Paris and Barcelona, the two finalists for a location would have faced some competition from someplace in Germany. I'm not sure where, though.
