Wildpark Pforzheim was a wonderful surprise, definitely a "hidden gem"! It's free entry and very easily accessible from the city center, whether by bus or by car (very affordable parking). The park is a fantastic experience for both kids and adults, offering the chance to get up close to the animals in a peaceful setting. One of the highlights is the opportunity to feed the animals — just remember to bring €2 coins for the food dispensers, as this also helps support the park. Beyond the interactions, the park’s tranquil atmosphere, especially along its quieter edges, makes for a soothing escape into nature. Overall, Wildpark Pforzheim is a must-visit if you're in the area, offering a mix of fun, relaxation, and a chance to connect with wildlife.

A paradise for family no matter for old or young. Only pay for parking (maximum €5 for whole day) and near entrance you may get the food to feed animals ,+ €2 per cup and refill is available in the park.

Really nice and relaxing weekend treat for families. This is the place where you do not need to spend so much so your kids can have fun and learning to love nature.

Great wildlife park. Such a surprise to see it here and visit all the beautiful animals. Fun for Adults, not just kids 🥰

Very green and spacious. There are animal feeding options, but fenced. Only the goats can be visited within their pen and of course be fed. Still a very nice stroll in the park.

The park itself is free, only for parking you need to pay on public holidays and weekends it coasts 5€ for 3 hours, you need a mobile app or coins to pay for it in blue automata. Silver ones you can pay with cash or card. When you use the app you can buy either for 3 or for 11 hours straight away or prolongate your parking time when you’re still inside the park. Some animals you can feed and touch, some not, there are red signs with no feeding. Inside is also a nice tree climbing experience coasts 26€ per person max. 120kg.

It's an incredible place for children, making it a true paradise for families. It depends on the person, but we as a family of four with two small children aged 2.5 and 1.5, we wanted to truly experience the beautiful, clean air and the animals without the crowds. I must say, it was a 10/10.

An amazing concept, previously functioning as a gas storage unit, this has been converted into one of the most gorgeous panorama displays. There's a theme every year, this year being the Amazonian forest. With a combination of lights and sound effects, you feel like you're in the forest experiencing nature in its truest forms. Theres also a beautiful display of different species indigenous to the forest. Tickets are at 13 EUR per head.

It was an impressive installation in 360 degrees with the light changing during a day and a night's cycle. The eay the photos and paintings were mixed is very skillful and in some places of the landscape it seems to be a 3D photo. Just the story of the place is interesting enough to merit a visit, then the contrast between its previous use and this defense of the Amazon is an interesting conceptual contrast that screams with the spirit of these times.

The exhibition was very good, yet there was plenty of space. There were all sorts of animals and plants to discover. If you have them, just bring your own binoculars and save yourself the €2 rental fee. I was really impressed by the animated day/night cycle and would have liked to stay on the observation deck even longer. Definitely worth a visit! We discovered a lot of new things the second time around, too. Highly recommended!

The reef Panorama was boring and it took us 5min to want to go out. Only thing that kept us in was the big price for the entrance. Update: the new antic exhibition is much better especially the sound.

This is an amazing place and a must visit if you are living in Pforzheim. The cost of the ticket per person is 11 Euro. You can see an outstanding 360 panorama work inside with different day timing effects. At the end you can also see a video of the creator which explains how they made this amazing place. I enjoyed my time here, I recommend it.

We went for the exhibition about the Amazonas. It was beautiful and nicely put together. We came with children and sadly for them it was not very interesting.

Very nice place, a huge space where you can admire the wonders of nature and realize how human species is destroying it. It is really a must visit when you are in Pforzheim !!! There is a lift too and the building can be accessed by people in a wheelchair too. There are many ramps and a lift that takes you where you have to go !!!! Prices for entry are fairly low. There are discounts for students or small kids.

The museum itself is very interesting and worth a visit. The exhibitions are engaging and definitely recommend!! but the ticket counter experience felt like stepping into absurdity. When we asked if there were any special exhibitions, the lady replied with a patronizing: “Of course, this is a museum.” She also assured us that one ticket covered everything… until we crossed into another section and were told to pay again. The highlight? Asking if there was a section for local artists. She looked at us as if we’d just asked for UFOs and lost her mind: “There are no local artists here.” Well, in a city of 300K+ people, I’d bet otherwise. Karlsruhe, keep nurturing your own artists. we’d love to see their work shine!

We loved every second here and spent 3.5 hours walking the museum. A very kind docent named Emily spoke English with us and was very knowledgeable about the art in the room! We loved the interactive exhibits and that they had English placards beneath them as well. What a magical museum to bring a child! Those, too, who are children at heart!

A bit disapppinting. Lichthof 1 and 2 appear to be in redecoration or setting up of New exhibitions. Lichthof 8 and 9 were better and interesting, but there was a lot of reading involved. The setting is spectacular. It has been almost 20 years since I last visited and the contents have changed considerably. I will be back, however, at some point.

Visited the wonderful art gallery consisting of paintings dating back to the 10th-11th century. There is a very interesting modern art exhibition as well along with other seasonal exhibitions.

Surprisingly engaging and interesting display of media, artifacts and traditional artwork. My expectations were mixed but the displays exceeded them more than I can describe. I highly recommend the ZKM Media Centre for a well-spent afternoon.

The Heinz Mack exhibition was amazing! $6 euro ticket for students - takes about an hour and half to experience it. But the museum it’s self is huge

I loved this place! Everyone finds something interesting! 2-3h can be spent easily! Medialounge is fantastic for work/study and is accessible to everyone! Electricity and games exhibitions are top for kids and adults!

We visited the zoo on a weekday so it wasn't too crowded. The nature is beautiful, lots of plants and flowers, especially now in spring when the flowers are blooming. Perfect fun for children, lots of animal species, well-maintained play parks for children. The zoo is really big and you need a whole day if you want to visit everything, so it's great for a full-day trip with the family. We really liked it and will definitely come again. We loved the Gondola ride on the lake. We had a really nice experience and memories. Admission for children under 6 is free, a day ticket for adults costs €15 if you buy it at the box office.It's cheaper if you buy the ticket online because then you pay €14.

Located right in front of the main train station, this is a relatively small zoo that packs a big punch. Sure, there aren't lions or tigers, but the polar bears, elephants, hippos, chimps and many other charismatic animals make up for it tenfold. And while some of the exhibits could be on the older side, there are brilliant modern facilities, like the wonderful tropical house, that make a big difference!

Staff were friendly and nice. Beautiful gardens and promenades. Nice displays of flowers. Amazing birds and animal varieties. The full leaning seats were so ergonomic and comfortable! The view from the hill is fantastic and you’re able to see in all directions for miles. Tranquil areas that were peaceful as well as like paintings with the fall colours. Disappointed that the polar bears were not out and wonder if there are any. The water for the bears wasn’t clear or clean. Lots of trash in it lead us to believe there may not be any bear or bears. One of the nicest and best zoos I have been to. Thank you from Calgary, Alberta, Canada

A great zoo, with lots of animals – elephants, giraffes, parrots, seals, owls, penguins... Also a central location, easy to reach after getting off the train. Quite a good place to have a stroll with your friends. Be aware of the weather because in good weather you can see more animals.

It's ok, nothing more, nothing less. Sure, it's nice with kids, but the enclosures are way too small. The polar bear has no ice, the cheetahs no privacy, but they do have room for countless food stalls and giant grass fields. The enclosures are way too small. We shouldn't be funding this.

An unforgettable family-friendly experience!" Karlsruhe Zoo is one of the best places to spend a day for both adults and children. From the moment you enter, there’s so much to see and do. One of the absolute highlights is the polar bears — they are active, playful, and their spacious enclosure makes it fascinating to watch their behavior up close. It’s truly a sight that stays with you long after your visit. Another standout feature is the rose garden. Walking through the beautifully maintained gardens is a peaceful and colorful experience, perfect for taking photos or just enjoying a quiet moment surrounded by flowers. It adds a lovely contrast to the excitement of the animal exhibits. For families with young children, the petting area is fantastic. Kids get the chance to interact safely with friendly animals, which is always a big hit. The children’s play area is equally impressive — spacious, well-designed, and full of activities that keep children entertained while parents can relax nearby. The zoo itself is clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate. Informative signs and thoughtfully designed enclosures make it both educational and fun. Whether you’re coming to admire the animals, enjoy the gardens, or let the kids run around and play, Karlsruhe Zoo offers a complete and memorable experience. I highly recommend it for a family outing or a day spent exploring nature and wildlife.

Visited the Karlsruhe zoo with friends and their kids which was an amazing find. The place is very nice, interesting, well maintained with lots of activities for kids of every age as well as adults. The exibits are well curated and the animals seem to be very well taken cared for. The ticket is 15€ per person which may sound a bit pricey but you have a tons of things to do. Overall this was a great find that I highly suggest to everyone, especially parents. If you don’t know what to do about your kid and feel a bit drained, take them to the zoo to roam around!

Amazing! I absolutely loved this palace, it has a very beautiful architecture and is very beautiful. It has a beautiful museum that can be visited for free and also a very beautiful tower where the entry is only 4€, where you can go and have a very beautiful panoramic view over Karlsruhe. It is deffinetly a must-visit, if you visit the city of Karlsruhe!

Since palace’s interior museum was under renovation I have only strolled around it and checked out the park surrounding palace. Great landscaping and architecture, palace looks grand even on cloudy overcast day. The palace and city got under construction at the same time on 1715. Palace was built in French Baroque style by architect Jacob von Batzendorf for Karl Wilhelm, ruler of Baden-Durlach and founder of Karlsruhe in 1718.

We visited on Sunday. It was crowded, but since there are plenty of areas to explore, it didn’t feel overwhelming. The venue is designed across three floors with five different rooms, offering spacious areas for visitors. The entrance fee is €8 per person for the museum only, or €12 for the museum and turm(visit point). We opted for the museum + turm package and highly recommend it. The view was beautiful from turm.

Excellent place and view. A lot of locals excercising, playing and chatting, tourists taking photos. Many people are around . Parking is safe and lots of parking slots. Highly recommended.

Baroque 3 wing building from 18th century. past residence of the Baden dukes. notable in seat afterwards and witness of multiple history stage. today it serves as a museum and events Hall.

lovely park and buildings. we did not bought the admission ticket and merely took a walk in the park and the surrounding areas.

Simply breathtaking watching the SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE Light Festival one evening. You can't begin to comprehend the way this captures you. An absolute must of you come this time of year.

It was a nice experience for the kids, especially the introduction of the tarantula and the snakes, you are allowed to touch them and to take photos. The place is quite small but well maintained and the staff are nice. The downside for me is the price, 54eur for 2 adults and 2 kids is significantly more expensive than all zoos we have been to, incl. Wilhelma, Frankfurt zoo, Heidelberg zoo.

Was awesome and the tierpflegerin doing the small programs was superb. We are going to visit again. You even get to hold the snakes, spiders and tortoises and my 5 year old son loved it.

Very nice animals and shows for children to watch. We let snakes wrap around our neck :) The only thing is that is too hot inside and a little small for the price of the ticket.

Recommendable for kids and adults. Great walk around and also the shows are interesting for everybody. Prices are quite steep but reasonable. Definitely going there again.

The nicest reptile zoo I've ever been to. Perfect for anyone interested in seeing such animals of diverse taxa. The animals seem to be kept in very good conditions. They participate in European conservation programs. Probably the best attraction site in the vicinity of Landau.

Great collection of reptiles. Not very Common in Germany.. so I recommend to visit.

Bit small, but therefor very personal. Great way to challenge your phobias :)

I had fun here :) it’s not very big so 2 hours or so would be enough for adults. I saw some animals I’ve never seen before. It was a very educational experience. And it is definitely kids friendly!

Great little zoo. My grandsons loved it. Takes just a couple hours to leisurely see everything.

Nice place to bring the children. This place has a plethora of exotic wildlife to experience upclose. You can notice the staff here intensively maintaining the area and caring for the animals. I utilized Google Maps and searched this place while getting glass repair done in the area. It was well worth the visit highly recommended.

We visited the zoo today and found ample parking in front of the zoo. My son and I had a great time seeing the animals and only a few exhibits were empty, which may have been due to the cooler temperatures. All of the animals looked well taken care of and all of the enclosures were clean. My son loved all of the goats that he could pet. I highly recommend this zoo to anyone in the area.

Get ready for a wild ride at this mini-zoo! It may be small, but it packs a punch when it comes to well-kept animals and healthy-looking creatures. The staff takes great care of the animals, and the zoo is spotless clean. But the real highlight of this zoo is the downtown area where you can grab a bite to eat after your visit to the zoo. It's like a safari adventure, but instead of lions and giraffes, you'll find delicious sandwiches and ice cream cones. Overall, it's a great little zoo that's perfect for a quick stop, but don't expect to spend the whole day there. With that being said, I highly recommend it!

Lovely little zoo. Beautiful animals that looked well cared for.

for such a small town, it has an amazing zoo. can reach in and pet some of the animals, like the sheep ! we had the honor of accompanying our friend Ronja who works at this zoo, and enjoyed a detailed tour of the whole place.

10/10. This is great for groups or solo explorers. Tours are also available.

The entire complex is definitely worth to visit (for free). However, I doubt in value of visiting the monastery building (with entry fee).

One of the most authentic and beautiful monastery I've been. If you're hesitating to go here with less accessible location, I definitely recommend to visit here. Beautiful architecture, high-quality preservation of medieval arts, authentic atmosphere. You can also visit the whole area, which is also full of medieval timber-framed houses. For tickets - you can go to the information center at the south of the village.

Nothing special. If you are an experienced traveler, it could be just a nice getaway for a couple of hours, to enjoy the good weather and tranquility of the place. However, no need to go there deliberately. Wheelchair accessible outside only, all in paving slabs. You can get inside with a push chair.

What a fantastique village style place. Outer parts can be visited for free and the remarkable monastery itself offers tours and audioguides. I recommend these to get more spoken details as signposting is limited to German and rather short. The place is of stunning architecture and an unbelievable relaxing quietness. Heavenly silence on earth with a dribbling fountain 😉

Beautiful, tickets are only needed for the inner area. If possible, visit on weekdays to avoid crowds

Well kept and explanatory guides

We can say that the place was rebuilt and took its current shape because it received a lot of damage in the Second World War. Rather than being historical, it has many places that are still actively used. In the central location of the district, one-way traffic is provided around it. We would also like you to visit the rose and tulip gardens.

A wonderful castle, extremely beautifully painted, has a huge collection of musical instruments, music boxes.

Would be good if the guides actually knew some English ... the attitude needs work as well. Luckily, the architecture makes everything better

Beautiful place! Recommend visiting.

A nice short trip. You can walk around it and see all the surrounding buildings. There is also a small Cafe Bar on the premises. Take your time a make a visit. After a year, we visited again with our dog. A very nice place to come with your dog. The Park is big enough for all of the visitors. Come and enjoy a warm day.

One of the Castles in Germany. Nice landscaped park, entrance fee to inside the castle. But most of all I was impressed by the museum of musicalautomates. It is definitely worth seeing for everyone.

Oh wow. Totally worth the trip. Be sure to pay to get the audio tour. Amazing how much work has gone into restoring this palace. Also check out the music museum to see all the old automated musical instruments. Great, great 1/2 day adventure

Great experience. Amazing rides, great quality and not super crowded. The longest wait we had was 45 minutes and rode over 10 rides with 5 people in our group. The youngest being 4 and she only skipped 2 rides for being too small.

Tripsdrill is one of the oldest amusement parks in Germany, and it really has a very special atmosphere 🎡. It offers both modern roller coasters (like Karacho and Mammut) and nostalgic, family-friendly play areas. Since the park is set among vineyards, the natural scenery is very enjoyable 🍇. There’s a wildlife park and water play areas for kids, while adults can enjoy adrenaline-filled rides. You can also feel the cleanliness, organization, and German efficiency everywhere. In short, it’s a place that offers a full and fun day for both families and thrill-seekers.

Went to Tripsdrill with my Kids and we loved it. We slept at the nature resort in a wooden tree house, visited the animal park upon arrival and the roller coaster park the next day. We were very lucky with the weather as it was sunny and around 27 degrees. We visited on a Thursday and the waiting times were always around 5-10 mins only. The park itself is beautifully decorated and the staff was friendly. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Wonderful place to bring the family.. great price for tickets and Fiod and drinks.. very affordable and fun.. the only downfall,,, is they should stay open later than 6 o'clock. Kids are on vacation and and If you dont get there when they open then if its busy you won't get to do a whole lot.. so plan to get there when they open..

Tripsdrill is an incredibly well-designed amusement park with a great mix of attractions — from fun and gentle rides for kids to more thrilling ones for adults. The park is clean, charming, and full of character, with a really friendly and helpful staff. There’s so much to see and do, you can easily spend the whole day here without getting bored. A perfect destination for families and anyone looking for a fun day out!

A nice park with attractions for all kind of people enthusiasts of roller coasters or not. At many attractions the waiting time gone faster due to the nice decorations of the path to embarking zone. Very kids friendly. However, no English markings and employees don’t speak other language than German. I get it we are in Germany however if you want to attract more ppl from all over the world you should train your ppl to be able to have at least a basic discussion in other language. Pretty expensive services.

Tripsdrill, from a thrillseeker's perspective, is only worth a day for, and even half a day to hit all the major thrill rides, however rerides are advised if you ask me. Hals über kopf and volldampf should be done at the start of the day and come back to at the end because the STC really warms up, make sure you get the front and back. You can choose whichever row you want on all coasters apart from a few which have dedicated front row Queues. All Queues stay under half an hour so you don't need to rush about. There's also plenty of rides for the family Food, drink and merch are not insanely overpriced which is a breath of fresh air from merlin. The theming in the toilets is really odd and the general vibe of the park is very german, many odd animatronics and even a full blown zoo off to the side with a collection of European animals. I'd say it's worth coming to witness and experience the odd collection of rides here.

Incredible experience! It went way beyond my expectations. I didn’t think there would be this much to see. My main reason for going was the Buran and Apollo exhibits, but I ended up really enjoying the other sections too. There are dozens of cars, motorcycles, and airplanes on display. You also get to see flown items from Apollo, Gemini, Shuttle, and ISS missions. Capsule parachutes, Shuttle parts, astronaut gear, and even a Moon rock from Apollo 15… Such an amazing collection. The Lunar Module looks almost exactly like the real thing, and the lunar suits are just as impressive. Absolutely a must-visit!

What can I say as an american?I walked into this museum and I seen the biggest space shuttle.I ever seen in my life and just blew it off like any other tourist would come to find out.It's russian.I was amazed the space displays.Were incredible. Not to mention all the other airplanes, the cars, the trucks the trains.This place has everything for the enthusiast.I seen multi million dollar cars.I seen multi million dollar airplanes.I've seen the average guy walking around.I've seen people that were loaded with cash and prestige walking around it is a beautiful museum. One of the best that i've ever been in.

Spent total of 8 hours in museum but not completed seeing everything. Worth visiting. Most impressive is the B747-200 with interior cutaway.

Just a great to go with family and friends today had Sci-fi as well. So Go to see everyone dressed up. Amazing place and food was great as well. Super place for kid's and there Dad's so many hig boy's toys

Amazing display of land, water, air and space vehicles. I did not expect the huge collection of well-displayed artifacts that allowed up cloce inspection. The Lufthansa 747 is mounted high in the air, can be seen from a distance, and still allows interior visits. Worth a special trip.

It may take more than a day or two to see all this museum has to offer. The wing walk is a must, dont forget to grab your carpet to slide down afterwards.

An extremely well-curated museum that has a little something for everyone. We had an amazing tour guide who was clearly very passionate about the collection. Space, air, road, sea, plus a unique collection of musical machines.

The Speyerer cathedral exudes a sense of grand history and architectural significance. The intricate details in the stonework and sculptures reflect a high level of craftsmanship and religious symbolism. Inside, the soaring vaulted ceilings and massive columns create a powerful feeling of awe and reverence, while the richly decorated doorways and statues add a sense of solemn dignity. The atmosphere is both majestic and serene, offering a space that invites quiet reflection and admiration for its monumental design.

Visitor's note: there is currently restoration work ongoing. As such there is scaffolding in place. Be aware. What an amazing attraction for any and all visors. The cathedral it's absolutely magnificent. Completed and consecrated in 1051 le Cathedral de Spire is one of the last cathedrals built during the time of the unified church. Historically and religiously, this is incredibly significant, but the site doesn't stop there. The architecture of the space is world class. With no choir as you enter you are drawn to the east, to enter the space fully and encounter the light of Christ. The crypts below the cathedral are worth the visit alone. Hapsburgs lie interred next to other emperors, kings, and ancient leaders of both church and state. Whether you are looking for a tourist site, a historical adventure, or a pilgrimage site in western Germany, the dome has all of that and more.

This is a little town that is tucked away.Nicely off the autobon. One of the most beautiful churches that you'll ever see. I was told it was older than notre. Dame..

Spectacular views at the top of 330 steps up a spiral staircase. World's 6th tallest. Beautiful inside too!

Speyer cathedral, while not being able to compare to Strasbourg or Cologne is still worth a visit. If you have a good tour guide, you will hear some interesting facts and stories.

Spectacular Cathedral! Stunning architecture! This is an amazing church with astonishing size.

Fantastic history surrounding this cathedral. Beautiful, as are almost all the cathedrals you will come across in Europe. It is 307 steps to the top of the tower, but the views are worth it.

Nov24: LONG Review: heavily overpriced, too tiny place with few things to offer. It’s a very small aquarium/oceanarium that is very pricey for what it offers - 57€ tickets fee for 2 adults and 1 kid..it was very sad seeing how a big turtle stuck in aquarium and no one helped her. They offer some lectures about particular fish/animal, you can touch a starfish, see a few sharks and a turtle..you can also watch some shallow water aquarium with rays and reef sharks, glass is very scratched and dirty. Amazonian section has only 3-5 aquariums with piranhas a highlight. There is a sort of underwater tunnel..Fair price would have been 5-10€ per person max for this sort of a tour. They have dirty snack bistro, no options on healthy food..paid parking onsite 7€/day, or 4€/day parking on premises (if you turn right while driving towards aquarium and are lucky enough to get a parking lot). There is only one WC next to the shop and cafe, along the halls you have no toilet. We were done with the visit in 40 min. It could be suitable for kids up to 6 years old, but sorry not for that price. Not recommended to visit, please consider all the low star reviews.

Lovely experience. I did find the habitats a bit Small, but I'm no fish specialist. Absolutely not traversable if you're in a wheelchair. Maybe if you go in the middle of the week and there is NO ONE there.

It is a very interesting place for children to visit and enjoy sea life. Also for adults who are really interested in under water life. I recommend it but only once since the ticket price is too high even for the children

So, disclaimer* we had 2 free adult tickets, only paid for our 3 kids (€40?). That being said, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here, but we did walk through the whole thing in under an hour. Now, our kids do tend to run to each exhibit as fast as the next (excitement). It really is what you make it, if we had spent over €70 for our family of 5, we may have lingered longer. It does seem a bit pricey for the size and exhibits, but, we have been to many aquariums and this (in our opinion) was one of the neatest atmospheres! The whole aquarium is just one big exciting exhibit in itself. Our kids absolutely loved it and we thoroughly enjoyed watching them! Also, many people commented regarding the food. We didn't eat but did look at the menu, we thought the prices were reasonable. However, we didn't eat, maybe the foods not good lol. We had a good time, it wasn't crowded at all, and the balcony where you can sit and eat if you wanted had lovely views! *side note* You should update your website for ticket purchases. When entering the billing address for cc info, there is no option for the US or even the UK. I was unable to purchase tickets online because of this. Just a recommendation if that can be fixed!

I was there yesterday, not too busy. Paid 19€ for entry, was done seeing everything in less than 1 hour. Nice but too small comparing to the entry fee, i agree with other comments its a bit disappointing for adults.

We went on a rainy Saturday and the place was crowded. If you have the chance get your tickets in advance and try to avoid the usual visiting times. The place itself was quite small but really well designed and family friendly. Plenty, of fish and even a little interactive area where you are allowed to touch some starfish. All in all a nice place to spend an hour and continue to visit Speyer.

It was good. Small space. Good collection of fishes. Washrooms for kids as well. Small eatery. But not worth 22euro per person.

This is a beautiful ruin with plenty to explore, as well as a restaurant in/adjacent to it. We came here thinking it was only accessible by dining there, but we weren't even able to due to a concert and a wedding happening that day. Nevertheless, there was still a ton to see and appreciate on the outside of the abbey and the inner courtyard of the abbey, though I would have loved to climb the tower if that's still allowed at all, as well as go into the crypt. We parked immediately next to the abbey, though the walk from the nearby town seemed like it would have been fairly easy and beautiful, as well as well shaded and stroller accessible. Highly recommend, and may come back again to see if we can explore more on a week day without other events happening.

After a long hike through the forest, we stopped here to look at the ruins of the abbey and stumbled across the little restaurant. Most excellent! We felt immediate hunger. So, in we dug. Coffees were excellent while we waited for the food to arrive. The soups were delicious. I had the beef broth with a sliced liver dumpling (Leberknodel); others (without the refined palate required for liver), had the potato soup. We then tucked into the spatzle with cheese and onions. We were well looked after by the staff and, re-invigorated, set forth once again into the woods.

Very good restaurant to enjoy good food outside under old remarkable place

Cool place to check out. Nice lawn on the back side to picnic. Resturant and separate drink stand during Non COVID times. Public restrooms on site as well.

Very tasty, but took quite some time until served

Beautiful medieval Abbey with the grave of Gunhilda of Demark, consort queen of Germany that died in the year 1038. Lovely view and tall walls. Currently the crypt is closed as the repairs of the restaurant building are being repaired from a fire a few years ago but should reopen sometime in around June of 2020!

Quiet, relaxing atmosphere with excellent food and good views to boot!

I had an absolutely fantastic experience at Badewelt Sinsheim. The facility is impeccably clean, well-maintained, and everything is organized with great attention to detail. From the moment you step in, you notice the high standards they maintain across all areas. The facilities are world-class — from the relaxing palm paradise and themed saunas to the crystal-clear pools and quiet zones. Whether you want to unwind, swim, or enjoy a full sauna session, everything is available and of top quality. A big plus is the restaurant, which offers surprisingly fresh and flavorful food. The menu is varied, the ingredients taste fresh, and the service is quick and friendly. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a luxurious and relaxing spa experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!

I absolutely loved my time at Sinsheim Therme! From the moment we arrived, everything felt well thought out , the lockers, the comfortable seating areas, the spacious changing rooms, and the neatly organized showers made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. The food was fresh and tasty, and spending the day here with my family was such a joy. We booked one of the beach-style chairs, which made relaxing even better, and I loved how organized everything was — no chaos, no confusion, just pure relaxation. It’s the perfect place to unwind, have fun, and enjoy a beautiful day together.

I had a great time visiting this place. There's truly something for everyone, both adults and kids. I appreciated their focus on privacy and ensuring everyone follows common decency rules without making customers feel uncomfortable. However, the prices are a bit high for what's on offer, and it was a bit crowded for my liking. We had to wait in several areas to enjoy the different pools. I also wish the wristbands were a bit sturdier. The ones we got dissolved in water, making it nearly impossible to remember your locker number after a full day of swimming, visiting the saunas and steam baths. Another area that could use some improvement is the front desk customer service. Apart from giving us our wristbands, they didn't spend much time explaining what there was to do or where everything was located. They just assumed we knew our way around.

It was my first time at the Sinsheim Badewelt. The prices were to high and didn’t really offer much. The Therme in Bavaria has more to offer for almost the same amount … overall it was a nice experience though I wouldn’t be going back with the high prices … I’ll better go back to Bavaria 😂😂 I enjoyed the restaurant , good service. One of the reception ladies was not friendly…

I had very high expectations of this thermal bath but my experience was slightly disappointing. I've been to many thermal baths in Germany and other thermal baths were way better on several aspects. Vital and Sauna area: This area has been the most disappointing so far, there is only one crowded pool bar and an even more crowded tiny salt pool. Textile area: This area has one large pool and a few tiny overcrowded ones that we couldn't try because there was never any free space. Loungers availability: We had to book a double seat for 13 EUR, but for most other days only some outrageously expensive loungers were available (150 to 300 Eur). I've been to better thermal baths in Germany where such a lounger is only around 30-40 EUR instead of 200+ If you don't have a reserved seat, it can be difficult to find a place to sit. One thing I liked is that they have a few non reservable seats and they would clear your towels and belongings if you leave them on it while you're away. Food: Food can be a hit or miss, the chicken Thai curry was nothing like Thai curry and was barely edible. The chili con carne however was quite delicious. They do have some delicious dessert options and the food was not expensive and very beautifully plated. Water temperature: Water temperature was quite cold in my opinion, because a large part of the pool is outdoors and that probably affects the temperature of the water inside. It wasn't uncomfortable though. Air temperature was very pleasant and warm. Parking: Plenty of free parking spots were available. Showers and lockers: There very few showers so waiting times were quite longs and queues of 5-10 people were forming at times. Water temperature was good and the facilities were very clean. Sauna: One thing I loved was the cinema Sauna, you can watch a small documentary projected while inside the sauna. I didn't join any of the activities because the lines were insanely long which made the saunas fully packed. The steam bath was also really nice and the peeling options are amazing. Massage: Massages must be booked ahead of time. They also have some automatic massage beds but I couldn't find the cost mentioned anywhere. I think that's quite misleading. There thousands of real orchids and beautiful plants all over the pools, which was really nice. I'm not sure if I would come back again.

I’m 34 weeks pregnant and drove an hour to the pool, only to find that main pool is closed for renovations – with no notice online or anywhere else. This was a huge waste of time and energy. The indoor pool was uncomfortably warm and not refreshing at all. The outdoor pool area has nowhere to sit or relax, which makes it difficult to enjoy. Poor communication and poorly thought-out facilities. Not coming back. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE!

Absolutely LOVED spending one of our first days in Germany here. We went on a Friday afternoon and probably will be back during the week when it won't be as busy. Would definitely recommend booking a private bed there for the day if you go as you're not allowed to reserve your own. The pool bar is super cute with delicious drinks and it's just a vibe. We also did the sauna part and that was by far THE BEST saunas we have ever been to. Each Sauna has a different theme. Absolutely recommend 👌

Amazing museum to get lost. Plan plenty of time to be there. We stayed the whole days. The museum conditions of w giant halls, planes the roof trops, outdoor exhibition of tanks, planes, playground and amusement parc. We liked best : slide down of one of the planes, Concore& Tupolev, fastest car in the world " Blue Flame" Monstertrack, car of " back from the future".... In hall 1 you can find the IMAX cinema, museum shop, American dream cars, military tanks, planes, helicopters and other vehicles, aircraft hangar, organs and bicycle racing. Hall 2 is allabout motorracing, formula 1, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Ralleycars, automobile from the beginning, 20s 40s 50s and modern automobile. On the rooftopyou find the Concord, Tupolev and the submarine.

What an incredible place. It's mind-blowing the exhibits on display. Wild, varied and so many !!! You can view it all in a few hours but for sure take a day out to go to this mind bending place. The Concorde and the Kondcordski Tuplolv tu144 are magnificent. Scary climbing up the stairs and the tilt is a bit steep but well worth going. The cars also , so many cool cars, from supercars, to pre war to hot rods. Exhibits on race cars, a cool display of F1 cars. They also have a Great shop . Deffo pace yourself and take time !! They also have another museum called technik Speyer ... That has the Russian Space shuttle the Buran !!!

Absolutely amazing experience, with the U-boat, Tupolev and Concorde as the major highlight. Do not miss this if you have the opportunity. Expect to spend between 2 and 4 hours. Good - experience some of the most amazing vehicles from up close. - build as an experience - there is actually too much too see - themed areas and some paid interactive displays.

One of the most fascinating museums l've ever been to because of its absolute mint condition of trains, planes and automobiles :) Expect to spend a few hours to a whole day to fully enjoy this huge museum! Very special to see in person was the supersonic airplanes …Concorde and Russian tupolev (Tu-144) and a real U-boat !! (Line ups may vary from 10min to 1hour) Great collection of Lambo’s, Ferrari’s and of course every classic German sports cars. Lots of outdoor parking (5.00€ ) Bonus: some of the special collection exhibits are interactive by putting 2€ coin fee which gives you a great real life example of a steam locomotive wheels in action with sounds, very impressive so just do it !

We've been wanting to go here for a few years as we passed it on the way to someplace else. So much to see and really loved walking inside the Concorde jet and the U boat. We went on a Saturday afternoon and it was busy but not too bad. Parking is 5 euros. Lots of cars, tanks, motorcycles and more. Great for a family to spend a half day and the playground was fantastic with rides too.

Great, but it could be so much better. There are some amazing exhibits here, but they're displayed in a ramshackle and random manner. Having the planes at stage angles must have seemed like a good idea (maybe after a beer or two), but I think they'd be better level allowing people to walk through easily and concentrateon looking at the interiors fully.. Information on some of the exhibits is sparse or cut-and-paste from others. It is certainly worth a visit, but it has the potential to be absolutely amazing.

Most fascinating museum I've ever been to. To actually enter a Concorde was a blast. Definitely spending a whole day the next time. Absolutely a family experience. Very nice staff. So much to see and explore.

The last time we came to Bad Durkheim the gradiation tower had been destroyed by arson. Seeing this fully repaired and working is fantastic.

Well preserved ancient place. More to learn for me. Fresh air, gardens, past irrigation systems. Well maintained. Kudos to the team maintaing. Bring level 8 reviewer in Google that too from India, this is outstanding.

One of my favourite places in the region to chill out either alone or with a friend! The „sea- like“ breeze is great and fresh! The entrance fees costs less than 2 Euros ( 1.50) and no time limits which is reasonable.

Very beautiful and healthy area. Also recomended make a promenade in park and city. Already 5 visit and still enjoy it ;-)

This was my second visit to the Salinen wall. We were here in 2017. So this time, we made sure to visit. The wall is about a mile walk all the way around. The water off the salt grass is good for your lungs. Highly recommended

Intetesting place, nice suroundings. Worth for a short visit. The village is not something special

What a great area. Tons to do and loved the relaxed atmosphere. Stopped to stretch our legs and let the dog out. Went for a little walk and explored the area. From a stream to the work out area and a pool, pretty much everything you need and could want. Interesting seeing how the water is filtered. Can’t wait till everything opens back up and we can go in and see how it works.

All the things were used there. Shampoo, toilet paper etc

Dating back to the 13th century, this castle is impressive and has a unique architectural character compared with other castles. Several sections have been carefully restored, while others are intentionally kept as ruins, which adds to its atmosphere. You can visit a fascinating pharmacy laboratory museum inside, though access to the other interior areas is unfortunately restricted. The grounds include an enormous garden and provide breathtaking views of the city. Entrance fee is 11,00 € for adults. Walking through the castle and soaking up its centuries-old history was an unforgettable experience.

Very beautiful view over the whole city including the hills, the river, and a breathtaking sunset in the horizon. The garden is sooo big and “instagrammable” with many spots for selfies and photos. The castle is not big but has a beautiful winery, restaurant, small museum, beautiful facade, but most importantly an amazing high terrace overlooking the city. The tickets include a ride on the cable tramway taking you all the way to the tip of the mountain. A beautiful ride and nice view.

Absolutely beautiful place! The views over Heidelberg are stunning, and the castle itself is full of history and charm. Great mix of ruins and restored areas, with lots to explore. A must-see if you’re in the area! The bergbahn is really close by too if you have tickets to go back into altstadt

This castle truly has a mystic vibe to it! The red-brick theme, and the fact that its in ruins but still very well maintained adds to its appeal. Highly recommend visiting in fall/autumn as it looks super aesthetic with the green-yellow-red-brown leaves all around the magnificent castle! We didn't go inside but just taking a stroll around it and outside was super beautiful and makes for a good outing in Heidelberg!

Visiting Heidelberg Castle felt like stepping into a storybook. The walk up is a bit steep, but completely worth it for the stunning views over the city and the Neckar River. The castle itself has a beautiful mix of grandeur and ruin, which gives it so much character and history. I especially enjoyed wandering through the gardens and taking in the scenery. My recommendation is to take your time and just enjoy the atmosphere as well as to go before the sunset. Highly recommended!

Highly Recommend 👌👌👌 Heidelberg Castle is absolutely worth a visit! The views over the city and river are breathtaking, and the mix of old architecture and history makes it special. Don’t miss the giant wine barrel or the Pharmacy Museum. Go at sunset for amazing photos. The only problem is parking especially on the weekends, this place is crowded with visitors.

I didnt go into the palace(entrancee fee was around 20EUR) but it was so beautiful even only outside. I saw the panoramic view to the city. It was perfect.

Within Heidelberg Castle is this museum, which in great detail tells the history of medicines through the ages. Many visits would be required to take it all in. The sheer number of exhibits, set out as Apothecary shops is amazing

This is museum, that you can find in the Heidelberg castle. It has a couple big rooms, where you can find a lot of shelves with apothecary glass. It interesting. But it is a pity that you can’t buy some glass like in museum. Only one bottle there was.

The museum is quite small so there's a traffic light system at the entrance in an attempt to keep it from overcrowding but, in my experience, it didn't work. Perhaps people just ignore it. I found it far too packed inside to see even a fraction of all the interesting exhibits, let alone stop to read the labels. A shame, because it's a really well curated museum and fascinating subject.

It’s not very big, but it’s full of fascinating displays including but not limited to old jars, herbal remedies, antique tools and entire reconstructed apothecary shops. It gave me a real sense of how medicine was prepared centuries ago. I loved how detailed everything was and it made me appreciate how far science has come while still being connected to old traditions. If you are already at the castle, it’s definitely worth stepping inside. Quite informative & unique.

I found this museum very interesting as it traces the history of medicine through the ages. It's a small and well organized museum. There is verbiage that guides you though the history. It's housed inside the Heidelberg castle. The crowd management is good

I think this Apothecary Museum is good place to look around because it displays old days interiors of historic apothecaries. Furthermore admission fee is included in the castle ticket so that it is better and easier, no reason not to see this. With jars, herbs, powders its antique atmosphere was good and it was also a little fun to find things or medicines that I know of. It’s good enough, but may be a better place when visiting with kids.

No additional ticket required - it is included in the 9 Euro entry ticket. It was very interesting to see the history and evolution of medicine in the region. Would have been great if the information was in other foreign languages. You can also buy some unique products there

I am walking on the Old Bridge in Heidelberg. The views are amazing and there are many spots to take photos. The bridge has a beautiful historic charm and you can see the river and the old town from here. It is a perfect place to enjoy a peaceful stroll and capture memories.

The Old Bridge in Heidelberg is simply stunning. Standing on it feels like being right in the middle of all the beauty — the river, the castle above, and the charming old town around you. It’s such a picturesque and peaceful spot, perfect for soaking in the atmosphere of Heidelberg

The Old Bridge in Heidelberg is simply stunning, no matter the weather. I visited on a cloudy, rainy day and it still took my breath away — the views of the Neckar River, the castle on the hill, and the Altstadt are just magical. The bridge itself has so much charm and character, with its stone arches and historic vibe. It’s a perfect spot for a quiet walk, photos, or just taking in the atmosphere of the city. A must-see if you’re in Heidelberg — it really captures the spirit of the place.

This bridge looks good and walking on the also give good view for your eyes. Not crowded. River view is really good from the this bridge. It’s paved with stone. Entrance has big towers that add on to good view. But this only on south side of the bridge. Really worth to visit this bridge. In autumn season will get nice view of castle.

Old Bridge in Heidelberg is a popular tourist spot and a great place for photos, especially near the famous monkey statue. From the bridge, you get beautiful views of the Neckar River. You can enjoy boating on the river or take a walk along the nearby garden on its banks for a relaxing experience.

Since I was a little child (and watch “Hallo Onkel Doc”) I wanted to come to Heidelberg and see this bridge and enjoy the view from there towards the castle. And it did not disappoint! Although it is covered with tourists, it spoils one with history, stunning architecture (the bridge itself as well as buildings around ) and amazing views across the Neckar.

The Old Bridge is one of Heidelberg’s most iconic landmarks, connecting the Old Town (Altstadt) to the Neuenheim district across the Neckar River. Built in the late 18th century (1788), it offers a picturesque setting with a rich history and spectacular views of the city, castle, and hills. ✅ Highlights Architectural Beauty: A classic Baroque-style sandstone bridge with nine elegant arches. Heidelberg Castle Views: Offers postcard-perfect angles of the castle perched above the town. Statues & Gate: • Karl Theodor Statue: Honoring the bridge’s builder. ▪︎ Old Bridge Gate: A medieval-looking twin-tower gate, part of the former city walls.B • ridge Monkey (Brückenaffe): A famous bronze sculpture; touch it for luck or photos. 📸 Why People Love It Photography Heaven: Especially at dawn or dusk. Romantic Setting: Popular with couples and wedding photographers. Cultural Symbol: Represents Heidelberg's charm and resilience — the original wooden bridges here were destroyed multiple times before this stone one was built. 📝 Visitor Tips Best Times to Visit: Early morning or evening for light and fewer crowds. Nearby Attractions: Just a short walk to the Old Town, Marktplatz, Heiliggeistkirche, and Philosophenweg (Philosopher’s Walk).

A lovely walking path up the side of a hill that overlooks Heidelberg's old town. It is steep in parts as it winds up the hill but with places to stop along v the way to admire the view, it's not difficult. The views are worth the walk.

The initial climb can be quite strenuous but eases off when you reach the top. Great views of the castle and old city

This is a great place to relax and enjoy the beautiful view. The atmosphere is peaceful, making it perfect for unwinding. Highly recommend visiting if you're looking for a calm and scenic spot.

A beautiful trail with absolutely stunning panoramic views over Heidelberg and the Neckar River – perfect for photos of the old town and castle. Parking at Parkhaus Nordbrückenkopf (P16) cost me €7.50 for 3 hours, which felt a bit pricey, but honestly it was worth every cent. There’s also a small kiosk along the way, which is convenient for a quick refreshment. Highly recommended if you want to experience Heidelberg from above.

It's a tough walk up and need one to two hours. Views are very nice and we meet many other young and old people on the way. If you like hiking great Walk.

A lovely forest walk. I recommend going all the way up to the monetary ruins, the view is lovely from the tower

Beautiful view, especially at night, but very difficult to access. The road up is very narrow and old, with deep rutts. There are stairs up to the area after the drive. Definitely not disabled accessible.

Somewhat mysterious place. Guarded and protected against morons. Think have something on your head. Oldest gravestone is on the end of this cemetery. Is from year 1100. Description is in German language so does in English. Rather without a backpack.

At just under an area covering nearly four acres this is purportedly the oldest Jewish Cemetery in Europe and holds UNESCO World Heritage Status. In a nature setting abundant with trees and lush long grass, many graves with Hebrew epitaphed lichen encrusted headstones blend alongside more recent elaborate similarly time worn obelisks. The cemetery suffered vandal damage during the pogroms of 1615 and 1618. Although not in use since 1911 a final interment took place in 1940, ironically during the Nazi Holocaust. This is a site conducive to deep spiritual reflection in recognition of the Jewish presence in Worms since the 10th century. Whilst visiting, gentlemen are required to wear a head covering in accordance with Jewish tradition.

Entrance only with a hat for men. Solemn and serene atmosphere in this Jewish cemetery.

Solemn and peaceful. Make sure to bring a head covering if you're a man.

The oldest Jewish Cemetary in Europe with garves dating back a millenia. Also the final resting spot for several prominent German Jews from history. It is a place for quiet reflection. The cemetery is very sombre and well maintained. The old gravestones are especially fascinating and make for great pictures. When you visit Be respectful All men are expected to cover their heads.

Kever Of baal aderes eliyahu, mahril. Cavas yair. Amongst others. קבר של מהריל. קבר של חוות יאיר. ושל אליהו בעל שם (אדרת אליהו). Walk into the gate (as pictured) either take the path immediately on the left for about 4/5 min (over grass a bit right before the chelkas harabonim) and then little hill downwards into chelka. Or u can continue straight down the main path till steps on the left (pics inclu) continue that path for about 3 mins till u see path going down into small hill (ditch) on the left (next the big wall of cemetery).

A historically and emotionally important place

Lovely 12th-century catholic Church, built in Romanesque style. Inside, one can see Gothic reliefs from the abandoned cloisters, gravestones and grave plates of bishops.

Dom St Peter is a beautiful cathedral in Worms. The exterior is very impressive and there are many stunning stained glass windows to view as you explore the inside of the cathedral

It’s an impressive cathedral that is the major sight of this town. It’s free to enter, so take your chance to go inside and walk around. Part of it is under reconstruction now.

Amazing cathedral with huge towers. The stained glass inside was spectacular. The front is being restored so go around the back for great photos.

Didnt get to enjoy the views inside, just outside and it was just beautifull

Huge internal space like hangars for Zeppelins. View inside with shadows and sunbeams looks like from Angels and Desmond , da Vinci code or Diablo game. Large and Colourful window racks make it even more hypnotic. Description in German and English language. Is bit visible how was it he cathedral constructed, modified during centuries, Something looks older, something new. But look’s better than in Regensburg or Heidelberg. Parking for cars and bikes is outside, you can have probably some paid guide, old Jews cemetery near.

I was so excited to explore and just be I. The same city as this church. The architecture and history here is just stunning. Every area is very detailed and since being built around 1120 it has been maintained and kept in impeccable shape. I would suggest seeing this church. And don’t forget to check out the street filled with monuments and statues of some of the most important figures of the cathedrals/cities history.

I was a guest in the hotel but can not recommend staying here, while the location is excellent, there is little sense of hospitality. When we arrived we asked if we could get a table for dinner. We were told they were all booked out. We did not find anything else we liked in the area, and we had our eyes on the pepper steak on the menu here so we tried our luck again at the restaurant. There was a table free outside, which said it had been reserved for 19h but at this point it was well past 20h and the table was still empty. We said we were guests at the hotel and we were promptly told we can not be seated at the table. We ended up ordering food elsewhere and sitting on the bench in the square, to eat on our lap. The entire time, the table at the Goldener Engel stayed EMPTY. Very inhospitable!!! The rooms are clean and spacious, few extras not even water. Breakfast was sparse if you could even get to it - unfortunately it's tucked into a tiny corner and there's room for one person at a time. Not an ideal stay. I expect more welcoming service from a hotel really! very unfortunate.

Traditional German Gasthof. Comfortable rooms, though the bathrooms are on the tiny side. Good food in the restaurant. The tables outside, on the central marketplace, are the BEST you can choose for a drink.

Excellent suite (aqua) and super lush breakfast. Friendly relaxed staff. Lovely location in middle of old town. Highly recommend.

We called in our desperate need Hotel Goldener Engel, explained our situation (no Tesla Destination charger in the nearby booked Michel Hotel, while google said it was), if we please could charge a few % (we said we wanted to pay ofcourse) but the Goldener Engel Hotel said no: it was only allowed if we booked a room. While we walked around, with our two tired little children, to look for help from anybody, we saw outside that the Tesla charger at the Goldener Engel Hotel wasn't used at this moment.

Absolutely adored this hotel. Romantic and quiet location, clean rooms, loved the vegan breakfast options. 10/10

Wonderful dinner and wine with my corporate team here. Never eaten in a building from the 1700s. Surreal experience. Made the food and drink that much more enjoyable.

Nice location and very friendly staff. Room is nice and very clean but quite small. Restaurant is excellent, food simply delicious!

Beautiful townhall building! Nice and cozy environment

Michelstadt is indeed an old town and well worth a visit it goes back to the medieval days, it has a synagogue that you can visit, the once a thriving Jewish community but not since the 1930s , the town pavements are covered in Stolperstein which little cobblestone with the name of the people arrested, deported, and murdered by the Nazis I would recommend a visit to the town

This lovely 15th century building is the main landmark of Michelstadt. Located in the old town area, this building housed the town administration until 1920.

We always bring visitors here. It is 'gemütlich' and there are good restaurants around it

This was during the Eastern market that they have on the weekends around Easter. It's fun they sell some food it isn't big like a Christmas market. But it is a fun place to go and has a festive atmosphere and all the shops are open even on Sunday. They sell some brats and some snitchel some ice cream and things like that

Absolutely gorgeous town. Specially in the snow!! The Christmas market is also magical. Get lost in its streets and discover beautiful building and friendly people

As a Filipina who loves Fairytales Cartoons movie, I always dreamed to see tmreal Castle. But then I Started to love old culture Cities. This City is one of my favorite in my list, which I was so inlove in this town and dreaming to have my next home here. Middle age is here to found! Rathaus was built on 1484 which facinated me that until this Generation this house still standing after many years!

That was the best museum that I've ever seen. Fossils, ancient Egypt, Knight armours, various minerals and stones, amazing tiffany glass examples, stunning old jewelleries, ancient Rome miniatures and more... It was absolutely amazing. 3 floors took my 3 hours and I could've stay even more.

It is a huge museum having 7-8 sections ranging from science, arts to history. The hardwork of workers in preserving the biological samples is admirable. You can come with kids to give them a good insights into different subjects. It is fantastic museum.

Absolutely wonderful place. Everyone should be visit this museum when gone to Darmstadt.

Excellent natural history museum with interesting mineralogical and zoological collections in addition to a range of works of art from both the ancient and modern world. In my opinion the heart of the museum is in the collection of fossils from the nearby Messel site, as they are incredibly well prepared and presented.

A surprisingly fulfilling museum with interesting exhibits in all areas ranging from art and history to the natural world. Be sure to reserve a good three or more hours for this place if you want to get round everything, as it has a vast collection - especially of art. The Max Liebermann exhibition was on when I visited. This was one of the best parts and was a well put together exhibition with interesting pieces. Most of the descriptions of the pieces are in German but this didn't reduce any of the entertainment for me. One kind employee even had a nice chat with me about the permanent collection. Entry is cheap and discounted for students so I undoubtedly recommend a visit as I believe it's one of the most interesting places to visit in Darmstadt!

We came for the art deco section and especially the jewelry part. This is the best display of jewelry I have ever seen. And the rest of the museum is also excellent. Beautiful pieces and excellently displayed. A must see for everyone. Very helpful security, especially in the art deco section where we were pointed towards the available drawers with even more jewelry.

Very interesting exhibits in an amazing beautiful Museum Hause in the heart of Darmstadt town... Enough time is required for visiting every exhibit with no rush, at least 2 to 3 hours. A café is also here to sit and enjoy a pause in between or after the visiting... A good museum for adults with children ....

This is a small zoo in Darmstadt, where suitable for a short visit of 2-3 hours. this zoo provide friendly space for children and family activities.

Went for couple hours and I was actually pleasantly with the diversity. Very good park and nice place to spend a day with kids. The internal restaurant is too expensive. Pretty cool activity to do in otherways mostly boring city.

It was very nice experience, not too many animals but at least the prices were reasonable and conveniently little people and walking.

This is a small Zoo but with heart and soul. The animals are treated good, there was enough food and space for each inhabitant. Some animals were lend out to other zoos so not all areas were filled. Entrance fee is really good compared to other zoos I have been to. The prices of the small cafe were too high (~4€ for fries) and it took way to long (~20 mins waiting time for fries...?), queueing excluded. The area is accessible with a wheelchair and the parking lots are close. Will be back for sure.

Not much to see cause not such a big zoo, but very nice and appealing for kids. Benches. Playgrounds. Clean. The crocodile hides and sleeps and not green.... Some listed animals missing. This was very nice for me and the kids.

The small animal park is a great day out with small children. We love the otters and the monkey house! Presently (October 2025) they are doing quite a bit of maintenance which means some of the enclosures are not available. Our family has had a membership since 2010 and highly recommend it.

It's lovely experience to see all those animal. There where a lot of young people looking after them. It was nice spend time and moment for learning about animal world.
