Great place to buy quality Mephisto leather products.

Mephisto a -50%

(Translated by Google) Large shoe store with a huge selection. I often come back to buy the same type of sandals for summer. Mephisto shoes are so comfortable and lightweight that I can't live without them. They look great, giving the impression of walking around in slippers. 😉 Courteous and efficient welcome. (Original) Grand magasin de chaussures au choix immense. Je reviens souvent pour acheter le même type de modèles de sandales pour l'été. Les chaussures Mephisto sont tellement confortables et légères que je ne peux plus m'en passer. Look extra avec l'impression de se promener en chausson. 😉 Accueil courtois et efficace.

(Translated by Google) Wednesday I was on the site, I came across very friendly and welcoming staff. I wanted a very specific pair of shoes, they were able to guide me and give me shoes that were not even on the shelf, it was series one from what I understood or a premium choice. (Original) Mercredi j’étais sur le site, je suis tombé sur du personnel très sympathique et très accueillant. Je voulais une paire de chaussures bien précises, elle su m’orienter et me donner les chaussures qui n’étaient même pas en rayon, c’était série une d’après ce que j’ai compris ou un choix premium.

(Translated by Google) A jaw-dropping selection, huge, clear, men's and women's leather jackets at truly attractive prices, given the quality and fit. High-quality men's and women's clothing, something you won't see much of elsewhere... As for shoes, thousands of models for women, though minimalist for us men... But a wide selection of sportswear. And regarding the staff, I just want to say THANK YOU for your patience, for your attentive listening. How many kilometers you travel in a day... Honestly, this place is well worth an hour's drive, or even more... Honestly. You'll definitely make a wonderful discovery. (Original) Un choix a tomber par terre, immense, clair, des blousons cuir homme et femme à des prix, vu la qualité, et la coupe, vraiment intéressants . Des vêtements hommes ou femmes très qualitatifs, et que vous ne verrez pas beaucoup ailleurs... Quand aux chaussures, des milliers de modèles pour femmes, par contre minimaliste pour nous les hommes... Mais beaucoup de choix en modèles de sport, Et concernant le personnel, simplement vous écrire MERCI, de votre patience, de votre écoute bienveillante , que de kilomètres vous parcourez dans une journée.... Sincèrement, ce lieu mérite largement une heure voir plus de route... Franchement. Sur, vous ferez une belle découverte,

(Translated by Google) A store I frequent regularly. For the first time, I bought a green sweater, Marina V brand, which pilled after 3/4 uses. I brought it back just to show it to a manager and point out that it did not correspond to the quality displayed in the store. The two cashiers did not want to listen to me, did not give me the name of the manager and told me that "that's the quality now and I can still wear it." This is not a professional response. I was just waiting to be listened to and for them to report it to the manager so that other customers do not have this mishap. More than disappointed! (Original) Magasin que je fréquente régulièrement. Pour la 1ere fois, j’achète un pull vert, marque Marina V qui peluche au bout de 3/4 utilisations. Je le ramène juste pour le montrer à un responsable et signaler que cela ne correspond pas à la qualité affichée de magasin. Les deux caissières ne veulent pas m’écouter, ne me donnent pas le nom du responsable et me disent que « c’est comme ça maintenant la qualité et que je peux encore le mettre ». Ce n’est pas une réponse professionnelle. J’attendais juste d’ être écoutée et qu’elles le signalent au responsable pour que d’autres clientes n’aient pas cette mésaventure. Plus que déçue!

(Translated by Google) Huge selection of high-quality shoes and accessories. Large, well-organized sales area. Very friendly staff. Highly recommended. (Original) Enorme Auswahl an hochwertigen Schuhen und Accessoires. Große gut gegliederte Verkaufsfläche. Sehr nettes Personal. Absolut zu empfehlen.

Incredible selection of hand made glass sculptures, wine glasses and ornaments. Been here twice and love it. Frustrating the cafe never seems to be serving food when I turn though!

Live demonstration of glass blowing, both production and artistic. Beautiful shop, some really nice work. Very affordable, I would have bought more if I didn't live half way around the world.

Lehrer crystal is a glass blowing centre with a wide variety of products in crystal. They are artistically crafted and affordable, especially the glasses and cups. They also have attractive jewelry and plenty of X'mas tree decorations. Definitely worth a visit.

Look, it is super impressive and interesting to watch those artists work. So, if you are in the neighbourhood, it is worth dropping in for a minute. If you like kitsch, you will certainly find it in the huge store. Lamps, glasses, jewellery, ornaments... everything you want in crystal they have. It's impressive to see how it's made, it's not necessarily beautiful according to me. But I assume if you like crystal, this place is a palace.

On the way to "Plan Inclined" we stopped there and was surprising but the big huge of glass choice. Can see glass making in progress. Range prices reasonable unlike many other tourist shops. Big showroom with included a cafe/pizzeria. Free parking and toilets.

Beautiful Cristal with good value for money! However, their choice doesn't include many modern designs. I hope this will change in the future.

It was very nice and interesting . You can also live see 👁️ how they make the products. All you can buy 💶 there is handmade 🤚 and its made of crystal the price 🏷️ is also good 👍. You can buy 🛒 in the shop cups 🥃, personalized crystals, figures 🪆, lamps 💡and more.

entrance wait 0 mins, nice staff, literally no one. nice parking lot. entrance costs medium, entering the museum rn I'll give yall an update. update: very nice museum love the glass statues etc... recommended

The museum is nice, there's no wait, and it's not too expensive. I like how most of the things are written in French, English and German, its nice to be able to understand something once in a while. The crystal pieces were immaculate, they look amazing. I just think there's something that you could add to it to make it even better. If i would rate it out of ten, it would be a seven, but i cant rate it out of ten.

What a lovely museum! It's light and spacious with friendly, knowledgeable staff. Learning about the life and fabulous work of Lalique was very interesting and the exhibits are breathtaking! There are some activities for children and adults to make the visit more engaging if you wish. A lovely place which isn't stuffy like many museums.

If I could give 3.5 I would. Museum is alright, not too big. Friendly staff, niche subject matter, nice little store. Not that interesting to me personally, although the glass did look really cool.

This museum was wonderful. So many lovely things to see and so much to learn. Wonderfully curated and beautifully displayed works.

Opened in July 2011, the Lalique Museum is unique in Europe. Situated in the village where master craftsman René Lalique founded his factory in 1922, it pays homage to this genius of a designer. More than 650 pieces are on display, embracing all aspects of the Lalique creativity : designs, jewellery and items of glassware and crystal ware.

Museum was interesting, nice glasswork! The bistro manager lady was very unfriendly, she was sending other People away, we left as soon as possible... 🙈

I wish the guide was more interested in the tour he gives us. Sorry I was disappointed. Expected more stories historie than facts I could read on the panels.

It's nice, but it's COLD. Make sure to pack an extra jacket or a sweater. Do not underestimate it, it's like being in a really big freezer. The tour is quite nice though, it's really in depth! There are some stairs which you need to conquer but I think they also have a wheelchair accessible route! Would recommend.

Well preserved bunker with many exhibits and details. Unfortunately the guide spoke only French, so we didn't receive enough information. Maybe audioguides or signs in english could save the situation. The excursion is long, be ready to walk a lot, as well as cold temperature inside all year around, so better to take a coat.

From the people running the visitor centre to the guys conducting the tour, it was excellent. The walk up to the entrance is quite arduous for us oldies and then you have to walk down wet stairs, to get to the tunnels. The tour takes quite a while and is a fair bit of walking. Loud noises abound as some of the ventilation and engines still work, and they are demonstrated! Super interesting, a unique experience. The English tour was at 1500, French and German language tours are also available.

Very interesting and well presented by the staff.

Amazing glimpse into the Magniot Line fortifications - the bunker system is incredibly well preserved and huge in scope! The 3 hour tour is great value at 12 euros, although if you want it in English you have to book ahead (I jumped on a German tour but knowing some WW2 background helped me understand most of it through context). Bring something to keep you or kids warm as it's about 9 Celsius in the bunker and you quickly chill! Info in English is essentially nonexistent, but to see some of the above-ground structures and tank/infantry defences you'll need to follow the red and green trails (no charge). I just drove slightly north and parked on the E85 road which has easier access - you can't miss the tank defences! All-in-all a great attraction and great value - I highly recommended the tour.

Amazing.

The Citadel of Bitche is an impressive sight perched above the quiet town in northeastern France. With its massive stone walls and commanding views, it tells the story of a town that has withstood centuries of conflict. Though less famous than other French fortresses like the Citadel of Carcassonne, Bitche still offers a solid, if more understated, experience for history lovers. Unlike Carcassonne, which is packed with shops, medieval streets, and a castle-like atmosphere, Bitche’s citadel leans more toward a focused historical visit. There’s a multimedia experience inside that takes you through the sieges and military importance of the site, and it’s well done; perhaps not as extensive or immersive as some might expect. Facilities are modest but convenient. There’s a small gift shop and a café for a snack or coffee after your visit, and parking is no problem at all. There’s plenty of space, including designated spots for camper vans, making it a great stop for road trippers exploring the region. While it may not be a full-day destination like some of France’s better-known citadels, the Citadel of Bitche has a unique, quiet charm. It’s a worthwhile detour if you’re nearby and interested in military history or off-the-beaten-path landmarks. Just come with measured expectations and you’ll find a well-preserved monument with stunning views and a dose of French history without the crowds.

Interesting history inside, but particularly loved the garden of peace outside (additional entrance fee of 3 Euros) which was a joy to be in on a sunny day.

Nice stop while camping nearby. There is a tour with audio option available which is roughly two hours. Fantastic structure.

The citadel is very nice, historical place with nice panoramic views from the citadel and to view Bitche city from above

I would like to give it four stars or more because it really was thrilling. However, it was scary and the woman at the ticket office did not help me very much It was so long of walk up on slippery cobblestones so be careful. I was a bit afraid of slipping, because I am older. Also, the fort is huge and you walk through rooms in the dark fortunately, there is another room and another room. When I got to the end a woman made me a good panini. But be careful if you ask for a glass of water and your French isn’t good. She offered. L’eau de Mirable which is a Schnapps!

A remarkable place. On a fine and clear day you can enjoy fantastic views from up there, even as far as the Black forest in Germany. The war-torn history of the citadel can be relived during a tour of the interior, with various episodes presented on film in various rooms within the citadel. Headphones for the tour are available in several languages.

Citadel was cool to see. The audio tour was kind of disappointing - it’s more of walking while watching a movie. There’s no background given so unless you know the history it can be confusing. The grounds are nice - we finished the tour too late so we were unable to check out the gift shop or cafe.

A striking example of Vorarlberg Baroque, a style brought from Austria by architect Peter Thumb when the church was completed in 1727. Vorarlberg Baroque is a strain of Late Baroque style that originated in Austria’s Vorarlberg region and was spread across central Europe by craftsmen from the Bregenzerwald area. It blends Italian Baroque with Alpine traditions, emphasizing bright interiors, colorful frescoes, and coherent spatial layouts. Built on the ruins of a medieval abbey destroyed in the Thirty Years’ War, the church stands out in the Alsatian landscape with its twin onion-domed towers. Measuring nearly 70 meters in length, it is unusually large for its rural setting.

An old place to see

Beautiful abbey, the interior is stunning.

(Translated by Google) A real gem for this abbey church, yet even if from the outside it is pretty without artifice, when you go inside the wow effect is guaranteed. We can only recommend taking a detour if you are passing through the area, you will not be disappointed! (Original) Un vrai bijou pour cette église abbatiale , pourtant même si d'extérieur elle est jolie sans artifices , quand vous rentrez a l'intérieur l'effet ouahhhh est garantie . On ne peut que recommander de faire un détour si vous êtes de passage dans le coin , vous ne serez pas déçu !

(Translated by Google) For those who love Baroque, this place is sumptuous, although away from the tourist routes. (Original) Pour qui aime le baroque, ce lieu est somptueux, bien qu'à l'écart des routes touristiques.

(Translated by Google) Parking nearby. I love visiting places of worship for their serenity, and here, I'm spoiled. A pure marvel, thanks to its decor, its furnishings, its paintings, and its statues. The moment you walk through the door, you're amazed. In perfect condition. Truly worth seeing. (Original) Parking à proximité. J´aime visiter les lieux de culte pour leur sérénité et là, je suis gâté. Une pure merveille de part sa décoration, son mobilier,ses peintures, ses statues. Des que vous franchissez la porte, vous en prenez plein les yeux. En parfait état. Mérite vraiment d´être vue.

(Translated by Google) There is a parking lot next to it. There is not much around, but the church is magnificent and the ceiling paintings are gorgeous. (Original) 横に駐車場があります。周りはあまり何もないですが、教会は立派で、天井画も豪華でした。

Amazing show for the kids, we haven't been able to keep our eyes off the stage where there was always something interesting happening. Looking forward for next year show and hopefully we'll try the adults only one as well

A parisian cabaret at la campagne. We went with family and friends to spend some time together. We had a wonderful dinner. The show and the artists were amazing. It is really incredible to find and to believe a such place exists, especially in the countryside.

Famous cabaret show, offers a complete evening and night of entertainment. We had a great dinner in the restaurant Versailles, very kitch decorations but good food and decent wines. Don't go there for a quiet dinner for 2 though, everybody is cramped on large tables. There is live music and possibilities to dance. The show was amazing (Flamboyant) with the acrobatic tours, the dancing nice and the singing ok. The lounge club is a very nice way to finish the evening since there is nothing else to do in the region. Service is quick and friendly, music is not too loud, still possible to have a conversation, and the dance floor was quickly filled with hits from seventies up to today.

Very very nice show, great place , loved it

Great food! Great show! A very nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon! Best value for money.

Amazing place for the Enjoyment.. must visit here. You will really enjoy your time here.. the artists are fantastic... Really enjoyed.

We had great time there. The show was incredible.

Very nice, the beer tasting was also very good

Great place to visit for beer lovers! Informative, very friendly people, cosy atmosphere, tasting of up to 8 beers included, and the croque monsieurs were also very tasty! Highly recommended!

The tour itself is OK but go for the beer tasting. Their White IPA was really good as was the amber. I'm not a flavored beer lover but friesaid the cherry beer was really good too

Tiny place, easy to drive past. But very welcoming and an interesting visit. Since they brew excellent beer, have been doing so since 1640 and remain independent and family owned it deserves your time. The tasting at the end of the visit is a real bonus.

We had a very pleasant and interesting of this local (and kind of independent) brewery... You'll know a lot about how beer is brewed, bottled and marketed, all of this in a lovely historical place... A tasting session can be enjoyed at the end of your visit (and before the shop of course).

Tour one of the last family-owned breweries, learn about how beer is grown and produced, participate in a tasting and browse through a charming gift shop.

Top 👌

Bad experience! They close the station at night and make you sit outside

We just bought two tickets for the train from the Gare Centrale to Innsbruck with two bikes, in total 232 euro. In the train in Basel it appears the two tickets we recieved are onle for persons and not for the bikes. So we had to pay an extra amount of 28,- euro for the bikes. We do have another transfer, so therefore we have to buy another ticket for the bike. The woman behind the counter didn't speak good English and she was very impatiant. She was also rude to my girlfriend.

(Translated by Google) The station is small, but looks attractive outside and inside. This is where the advantages end, there are few machines for buying tickets, the screens do not show the track number, only shortly before the train arrives. (Original) Вокзал небольшой, но снаружи и внутри выглядит привлекательно. На этом преимущества заканчиваются, немного автоматов для покупки билетов, экраны не показывают номер пути, только незадолго до прибытия поезда.

(Translated by Google) We arrived here in the evening. There weren't a lot of staff but the station was clean. (Original) Wir kamen abends hier an. Viel Personal war nicht da aber der Bahnhof war sauber.

(Translated by Google) Very small waiting hall, with insistent, heavy and heavy begging. They came to ask me for money no less than 4 times each in 1 hour of waiting, the SNCF agents came once, we had peace for 5 minutes max, then again. Little advice: don't plan to wait for your train in the station when you're early. Very negative point of my weekend in Strasbourg. (Original) Tres petit Hall d'attente, avec une mendicite insistante, lourde et pesante. Il sont venus me reclamer de l'argent pas moins de 4 fois chacun en 1h d'attente, les agents sncf sont passés 1 fois, nous avons eu de la tranquillité 5 min maxi, puis rebelote. Petit conseil, ne pas prevoir d'attendre son train dans la gare quand on est en avance. Point très negatif de mon week-end à Strasbourg.

(Translated by Google) The very pretty station, well, the old part, is hidden behind a horrendous modernist façade... The connections between tracks are well marked and signposted, and the trains are generally accessible. There are tables and chargers, shops of all kinds and fast food. The 3 stars comes from the fact that, at night they close the station, it is filled with drunk beggars (this is the fault of security, but above all of the city itself). It is the second time that we have to spend the night there, and it is impossible, we have to walk around the city at dawn. (Original) La estación muy bonita, bueno, la parte antigua, está escondida tras una fachada modernista horrenda... Las conexiones entre vías bien marcadas y señalizadas, y los trenes por lo general accesibles. Hay mesas y cargadores, tiendas de todo tipo y comida rápida. Las 3 estrellas viene en que, por la noche cierran la estación, se llena de mendigos borrachos (esto es culpa de la seguridad, pero sobre todo de la ciudad en si). Es la segunda vez que tenemos que hacer noche allí, y es imposible, toca dar vueltas por la ciudad de madrugada.

(Translated by Google) Arrival in the evening by tgv. Connection to Germany canceled. No detailed list of trains departing from Strasbourg. Just screens with the final destination. No one to find out. Heartbreaking. (Original) Arrivee le soir en tgv. La correspondance vers l'Allemagne annulée. Aucune liste détaillée des trains au depart de Strasbourg. Juste des écrans avec la destination finale. Personne pour s'informer. Navrant.

This is such a beautiful area with the bridges, water, historic buildings, cobblestone streets and flowers. It's a quiet area with some people walking or biking. The old historic buildings are charming and iconic. The photos capture the general area of Strasbourg.

Really nice place to either walk through and look at some of the stone sculptures that came from other places or to go to the top and enjoy the view. We came there at dawn when the purple lights were just switched on which was really nice.

Barrage Vauban in Strasbourg is a compact masterpiece of stone, strategy, and quiet beauty. Built in the late 1600s as a military defense structure, this fortified dam was once capable of flooding entire plains to protect the city. Today, it stands as a peaceful reminder of that past—welcoming visitors to climb up its stone stairs or take the elevator to a panoramic rooftop terrace. From the top, the view is breathtaking: the Ponts Couverts with their ancient towers, the gentle flow of the canal below, the half-timbered houses of Petite France, and the spire of the Strasbourg Cathedral rising like a stone sentinel in the distance. Down below, the cool, echoing corridor of the dam holds a quiet gallery of sculptures and cast figures—many rescued from the Cathedral and other monuments. The arches hum softly with the sound of running water, and the whole space feels like a walk through time. Though unassuming at first glance, the Barrage is deeply atmospheric. It invites lingering—people sketch, take photos, or simply sit and watch the light shift across the rooftops. Entry is free, the experience is rich, and despite its historical weight, it feels surprisingly serene. A brief visit here leaves a lasting impression, especially if you enjoy subtle places that blend history, architecture, and stillness so effortlessly.

One of my favorite places in Strasbourg. It offers a very beautiful view of the city! I recommend visiting!

Interesting histprical structure near the entrance to Petite France and old Strasbourg! Free to walk through and over. Great views of town and the covered bridges!

The Barrage Vauban was constructed in the 17th century on the River Ill, so it is one of the main historic attractions in Strasbourg. It is a great place to have a view on the city, the entrance is free (you just have to check the opening times before). Also a pleasure to have a view there at the evening. A must see not only for architecture lovers.

We went past on a boat trip round the isle of Petit France, run by Batorama. A very enjoyable and well run trip.

An interesting museum that presents the way of life of the old inhabitants of the Alsace area. Hosted by a group of old, interconnected houses. Beautiful inner courtyard! You need approximately one hour to visit it.

It is what I can call "a cozy museum." You would not like it if you are waiting for a huge museum with really old things and detailed information. It contains that, of course, but not to the extent of similar museums. Instead, and that is why I am giving it 5 stars, is the whole environment, it makes you feel like you are in a late medival house (till early moden) where you get to see how the people lived, and that is really cool

I visited this museum on the first Sunday of April—my second time here. Though it’s relatively small, the museum is thoughtfully curated, offering an engaging and informative look into the livelihood, beliefs, and culture of the Alsatian people from the 16th to 19th centuries.

A wonderful experience! One can see how people in Elsass have lived throughout the years. One learns about history and visits one amazing house which has been turned to the museum.

Such an interesting collection of exhibits in a beautifully restored building. The artifacts and scenes of daily life that have been reconstructed are well done and help to show what life was like in the area hundreds of years ago. The museum is right next to the river and only a few minutes walk from the other sites in old town. We arrived without tickets on a weekend and had no problem getting in immediately.

An absolutely amazing museum and highly recommended. Excellent reflection of history in the Alsace region

Well curated and anotated history museum. Could have used more english translation but french was largely understandable.

Strasbourg Cathedral is an awe-inspiring masterpiece of Gothic art. Its soaring spire and intricate facade leave you speechless before you even step inside. The stained glass glows with breathtaking color and detail. The atmosphere inside is both grand and deeply spiritual. A visit here is unforgettable—a true jewel of Europe.

Architectural wonders. I really surprised and wondered on this cathedral architecture. It amazing and look very nice. There is no entrance fee. But there is security and he will check your bags. Inside of the cathedral is also great. You will enjoy it. Everything about this cathedral is displayed on the screen inside the cathedral that really valuable. Not too crowded if you have patience you may get nice photos of the cathedral. In side there is clock and its make bell on specific time.

The overall experience is good but was busy. So many people always in the way. The history of it being built was very interesting. It's amazing that structures can remain in the same location basically untouched for such a long time. The clock in the back is a highlight that you don't see in any other churches.

The Strasbourg Cathedral is an absolute masterpiece of Gothic architecture and one of the most stunning landmarks in Europe. Its intricate stone façade, towering spire, and detailed sculptures leave you in awe from the moment you see it. Inside, the soaring nave, beautiful stained-glass windows, and the famous astronomical clock are simply breathtaking. You can climb to the top for a panoramic view of Strasbourg and the surrounding Alsace region — the climb is worth it, though there are sometimes long queues, especially on weekends and holidays. The cathedral is surrounded by charming squares and streets, making it a perfect spot to explore, take photos, and enjoy the city’s historic atmosphere. A must-visit for anyone in Strasbourg — whether you’re a history buff, architecture lover, or just looking for a spectacular view!

On a foggy morning in November we o pop aid a visit to the Notre Dame Cathedral in Strasbourg. We missed the morning opening time so we made sure we were standing in line for the afternoon opening hours. The queue, although long, moved quickly, and once inside we could see all of the stained glass windows and the mechanical clock in the far corner. We were there when the clock struck one o’clock - so not much movement on the animated figures at the top of the clock! The cathedral is worth a visit - even in winter!

Strasbourg’s iconic cathedral is truly breathtaking. From the outside, you can admire the magnificence of Gothic architecture in every detail. The massive towers and finely carved stone decorations are mesmerizing. Once inside, the peaceful atmosphere immediately surrounds you; the colorful light filtering through the stained-glass windows gives the cathedral a mystical feeling. Climbing up the tower is a bit challenging, but the view makes it absolutely worth it. You can see the rooftops of the city, the Rhine River, and the Alsace landscape stretching far into the distance. The astronomical clock inside the cathedral is also a must-see – both historically and technically fascinating. Whether during the day or illuminated at night, the cathedral offers a unique beauty in every moment. It’s not only a religious site but also a cultural and historical treasure. Anyone visiting Strasbourg should definitely make time to see it

We came for the Luminous exhibition in the evening. It was very beautiful, colorful and joyful with the show and the music in the background also was so beautiful. If you come for the show better come at least 20 minutes early to pick up the good seat. Totally recommend the show !

The park is beautiful and peaceful. There is a nice lake with ducks and a small white temple that looks very pretty. The grass is green and there are many trees for shade. It is a great place for a walk, a picnic, or to relax. The atmosphere is calm, and it is perfect for sunny days.

Sprawling well kept public park at the edge of Strasbugh. Easily accessible by tram, it was the perfect stop for a picnic. Well marked paths made the ponds easy to find and it was a nice quiet place to relax and unwind away from the hubub and touristy areas

A very nice park, beautiful flower arrangements and animals. The stork‘s are impressive and not only around their nest . A nice waterfall and if you have time rent a boat We will come back

we would loved to stay longer if not raining. it was a quiet garden to walk around to the lake and had to make a quick run when the rain starts pouring.

Big park for all family, some big space for playing and having children play ground. They grow different kinds of flowers at different places. There are free toilets. It is very good to spend relaxing time with family or friends.

Very nice large park with lots of trees, a small lake and nice paths. Great for running, walking or having a picnic. There are ice cream shops in 2 entrances, parking space and playgrounds for children.

Very nice park with the biggest books exchange spot I've ever seen. Tidy and well maintained.

Nice attraction for adults and kids. Nice views and tasks for kids to do. Would recommend visiting if in the area.

Family trip on weekday! Totally worth it! So many things to discover for kids and the views are amazing. Adults €5, kids €3.

Interesting castle ruins. For the kids there is a fun adventure leading through the woods to the castle with a story and assignmenta that include a slide, climbing, bouncy nets, making music and cool figures hidden in the woods. Accessible with a dog (mention you have a large dog when buying tickets).

Very neat castle with great views. The walk to the castle is rather easy, but walking around the castle would be difficult if you have mobility issues. The cost to get in was only 5 euro and the food at the cafe was great. I highly recommend visiting this castle.

Excellent place to visit! Kid and family friendly—this is a place you’ll be sad you missed if you’re visiting the area. There’s ample parking for whatever sized vehicle you’ve got. My minivan had no problems. From there, it’s a short hike to the welcome center—tickets, souvenirs, sitting area, and cafe. Fair priced and quick service! Then, you either go on the kid’s challenge trail OR head directly to the ruins. Visiting the ruins is included in the cost of the kids challenge trail. For my family of 5 (with a 4, 6, and 8 year old), we did the kids challenge trail. It engages the kids as the parents get to soak in the views, and it teaches everyone the history of the area. This ends up taking you on a nature hike thru the woods, and up to the actual ruins. The ruins are amazing—you can feel the history, and are granted some spectacular views. My kids loved it, and my wife and I noted how easy it was to get there, spend a day, and never think twice about much. It’s about an hour and a half from the Kaiserslautern area. The staff speaks German, French, and a fair bit of English. 100% recommend this place!

Very nice visitors center and cafeteria... Very cool ruined Schloss with an interesting history. Had a neat set up for the kids, an interactive tour from one section of the ruins to the next. Ruins are part of a large Forrest preserve with hiking trails that lead to several other castles. 👌

What a place. Came here on a Wednesday afternoon with one other adult and my three kids ages 5,3, and 1.5 years. I wore the baby and the other two walked (with some shoulder riding from parking lot for the 3yo). We entered the parking lot at the first entrance, not realizing (or stopping to read the sign) that you can drive all the way to the end of it and be a few minutes walk closer to the trail entrance. Once at the end of the parking lot, or after the sharp turn in the road after the beginning of the lot, you’ll see a trail in the woods that runs parallel to the road (which is at this point restricted to buses or staff only). The trail took us about 10 minutes and has some cool stuff about mining to see along the way. It might have been stroller accessible for an offroading stroller, but we didn’t bring one as there is no way to use it in the castle. Once you get to the information center, you’re in a small little courtyard of sorts, with the ticket and gift shop on the left, a restaurant at the far end, a kids feature on the right (an additional fee that we didn’t purchase), and bathrooms at the entrance on the right. We purchased tickets for us adults as the kids were free (€10 total I believe) and set off to the castle, which took another 5-10 minutes of walking. Once you’re at the castle, there are tons of staircases, both paved and uneven stony ones, in and out of the castle, to explore. It feels like you could get lost in such a good way, with secret staircases and little rooms hidden off the side of halls and stairs. There are fun stories for the kids to follow about someone named Hugo discovering the ruins, and they do a great job with sighs explaining what areas were used for and images showing how it might have been used. The best part of the castle, though, is the top, where it feels like you’re in a castle in the sky. Mind blowing to thing of how they made this castle so long ago, so high on this rock formation. The views are spectacular, even if all you see is forest and other rock formations. There are apparently a few other castles in the area, presumably on a hiking route, but we didn’t have enough time or energy to continue explaining. After the castle, we had ice cream at the cafe and bought toys for the kids at the store (I was pleasantly surprised at the prices). Most of the food was pre prepared quiches and wurst and whatnot which we didn’t want. Overall, this was an amazing afternoon trip that took about 2-3 hours total, for us with about 20 minutes of walking in shade on a forest path with tons of stair climbing once in the castle, for a very reasonable price for adults.

Fort Schoenenbourg is the largest and best-preserved part of the Maginot Line in Alsace. You can walk through several kilometers of underground tunnels, artillery blocks, and soldier living quarters, all still in excellent condition. The fort actually saw combat during WWII, and the traces of bombardments remain visible, giving the visit a very authentic feel. With guided tours, exhibitions, and restored equipment, it offers a unique chance to understand both the engineering and the daily life inside these fortifications. A must-see destination for history lovers and curious travelers alike

A truly massive underground fortress, be prepared for a VERY long walk, you will be walking 1 kilometre to the last gun emplacement. Fantastic achievement by the French. So much to see and all perfectly preserved, even more tunnels not yet prepared for visiting. Easily a half day to see it all, go by guided tours or, as I did, explore it all yourself. Lots of parking.

For the history and time it represents it tells the story. There is some long walking but information at almost every turn. It is far from an empty shell with displays, explanations and speaking’s with realistic sounds. The feel is that the fort is ready for action at a moments notice…very well done!!

Great experience of life fighting underground in the second world War and an insight into its astonishing construction. Able to see the dormitories the kitchens and the infirmary. My husband loved the visit to the gun turret that went up and down. We liked it especially as it is self guided and all the other forts are tour only .

If you are interested in military history you must visit. Self guided and the fort is huge. Give yourself more than two hours and there is a lot of walking. Fascinating structure and so well designed. Just brilliant, also wear something warm and good tread on your shoes / boots.

The Schoenenbourg Fortress, one of many sections of the Maginot Line, impresses everyone! Its size, grandeur, engineering, and organization. I use the term "fortress" wisely, as it is a huge, fortified defensive structure capable of functioning independently. We are not experts or military enthusiasts, and our visit to Schoenenbourg was intended to confirm and expand our knowledge of the Maginot Line. We fully answered these questions thanks to the fact that we were able to move freely around the fortress at our own pace. The tour trails are well-described, clearly marked to which bastion they lead. Along the way, there are numerous information boards, descriptions, historical posters, rooms, and equipment necessary for life and defense. Life-support equipment, military equipment, and transportation were important elements of the fortress. The infrastructure is incredibly impressive. I cannot help but express my respect and admiration for the people who conceived, designed, built, and served there. It's not important to us whether the building fulfilled its purpose, what matters is that it's a brilliant design. Seeing the rooms where soldiers served, the rooms where they rested and slept, and the everyday equipment, we realized how difficult service was in these conditions. After a four-hour walk, the lack of sunlight and blue sky was already taking its toll, sparking our imaginations of how difficult such service was. And if we add to this the sounds echoing across the concrete, bullets striking concrete, explosions, gunfire, ricochets, the smell of gunpowder and poison gases... it becomes an unimaginable nightmare.

Interesting historical WW2 moment, visited the outside first and then the inside. Then we had an idea about what it was. Remember a jacket as there is around 13 degrees celcius inside permanently.

(Translated by Google) You would think that authorities would know how and where to communicate that you are closed during normal opening hours during the summer holidays. Google says: open, only the sign on the entrance door of the citizens' office says: Due to the summer holidays we are only open on some Saturdays - please note. I completely forgot that things are made extra difficult for full-time employees without children during the summer holidays. Time and journey wasted. (Original) Man sollte meinen das Behörden wüssten wie und wo man kommuniziert, dass man zu den normalen Öffnungszeiten während den Sommerferien geschlossen hat. Google sagt: geöffnet, nur das Schild an der Eingangstür des Bürgerbüros sagt: Wegen den Sommerferien haben wir nur manche Samstage geöffnet - Bitte beachten. Hatte ganz vergessen, dass man es den Vollzeit Arbeitnehmern ohne Kinder in den Sommerferien extra schwer macht. Zeit und Weg vergeudet.

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately, I have rarely experienced such a bad authority as in Gengenbach. The administration is so rigid and terribly slow that it's really no fun. Other cities are much better, faster and closer to their citizens. The city should not be surprised that companies are looking for another location and are therefore losing out on significant trade tax revenue. (Original) Eine so schlechte Behörde wie in Gengenbach habe ich leider selten erlebt. Die Verwaltung ist so verkrustet und furchtbar langsam, dass es wirklich keinen Spaß macht. Andere Städte sind da erheblich besser, schneller und bürgernäher. Die Stadt braucht sich nicht wundern, dass Unternehmen sich einen anderen Standort suchen und ihr dadurch erhebliche Gewerbesteuereinnahmen entgehen.

Good hike up the hill - steep! Paths are well done. Viewpoint at the top. The lake itself is tiny, takes less than 5 mins to walk around. Shops/restaurant quite expensive for the quality. Bit of a tourist trap.

Easily accessed in May, via great roads. Watch the corners. Has a restaurant, a shop and a short walk around a little lake. You can boat on it. It's a stopover for an hour or 2, great views.

The place to be for an amazing and beautiful view. You will keep it in your heart forever ♥️ …amazing food, delicious breakfast buffet, clean and comfy rooms, kind people, the BEST “Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte” aka. Blackforest cake. Enjoy 💋

Beautiful place to stop and enjoy a break. Woodland and lake walks plus restaurant and various shops. The walks are great. Everything in the shops looks top notch but is a complete tourist trap with high prices. However, if you see something you like, you probably won't be disappointed with the quality.

One of a kind experience. Reached on a drizzly afternoon. Small pathway to walk around the lake. Grab a cake from shop nearby and find a cabin to enjoy the view.

A small lake in the mountains with a hotel and gift shop where you can get Black Forest ham, cake and original hand crafted cuckoo clocks.

If you’re around Black Forest, Mummelsee is a must. It’s eerie yet romantic — felt like a scene straight out of Raaz. Walk around the lake, find the mermaid statue at the far end, and soak in the legend. Had the original Black Forest cake there — totally worth it. Picked up some cute cuckoo clock souvenirs too. Loved the vibe. Would go again.

We only visited the store. The christmas part of the shop is very big. Even though prices are high, the quality is excellent. Fun to walk around. You can also eat there wich is very nice.

Confusing.... No production today. A sign on the door said it was due to a local theater production filming. The worker inside said it was because all the production workers called off sick today. One of the two was clearly a lie.... Really sad what has become of this place, it was amazing back in the day.

Great experience and lucky there was no tour group so we were first inline to get the full experience of flakes blowing and making our own vases.

Amazing to see how glass is manfactured in a traditional way. Worth a visit.

Had an interesting tour that covered the history of glass blowing and the production process, even got to blow my own vase! Got to see the professionals at work creating Christmas ornaments

We visited the Glass blowing factory! The show had some very pretty glasses and glass products. They have a museum and Glass blowing experience is a must do if you visit.

Amazing collection of glassware! They have a separate section for Christmas collection, which I found to be so beautiful and delicate. They also have a section for the Zeller ceramics and for woodworks. Can spend a good couple of hours seeing going through it all. The sales persons were friendly and very helpful.

Did the guided tour for 10€ less 1€ discount from our hotel. It really is worth doing. The casino is absolutely stunning with a fascinating history. The tour takes 40 minutes and you are allowed to take photos. A nice interlude on a cold day.

NOT GOING BACK. SERVICE NOT SO GOOD, ONLY 1-2 Tables (Roulette & something else). Didn’t see BlackJack and above all, no one there to provide any material gestures of guidance or hospitality. Actually saw the 2 tables at about 3-4PM, and was totally unimpressed. Baden-Baden yes, Casino pass it. The architecture is fantastic, and the inside quite clean. The coat-check lady was nice; but the Admissions lady was definitely not nice. I was well-dressed in a black-leather jacket, tux-white shirt and a gold-laced bow tie. The B forced me to drop €10-20 on an unnecessary jacket rental; and was a snot about it. Reminded me of my first encounters in East Germany when The Wall was coming down. They thought of everything, but the people and what they might need. Walking away, I saw the Illuminati of the Casio Bar. What could go wrong here? They had everything, but a bartender; because the 3 or 4 of them were kind of in the back corner talking. No attention whatsoever to customers. As an afterthought, a bartender appeared. WOW. For the $$$$ they were charging I worried about buying dinner. Service = 5/10. Real nice place if you want to hold your mouth open, but if you came to play Blackjack or another game—you’d have more fun by a long shot at the Tampa Seminole Hard Rock Cafe (at half the cost). Not so cool. They have a lot to learn about taking care of the client. When I turned in my Jacket, Ms. N. Admissions was supervising the coat check lady with a specious, down-the-nose look. Really Surprised as was my darling. The surrounding promenade OUTSIDE OF THE CASINO was filled with Baden-Baden interest, history, and adventure.

The Baden-Baden casino is truly stunning: an elegant, refined place full of history, definitely worth a visit. However, what a strange idea to force men to wear a jacket in the middle of summer, with the heat unbearable and the air conditioning not really up to the task. In the end, you end up sweating more than betting… A shame that such an outdated rule slightly spoils the experience in such a prestigious venue!

Absolutely beautiful and unique casino. We were just doing the guided tour, but I had love to go on night to see the atmosphere...

Cool building architecture and park in front of the building, one of the oldest casino in the world (designed in 1824) gained its fame in 1830s when gambling was banned in France.

Very nice lady at the front desk Paid 5 euros per person entrance fee There is a dress code for guys, you have to wear a blazer if not you can rent one for 10 euros We were given a locker to put our stuff inside. The interior of the casino is beautiful, majestic Highly recommend visiting

Absolutely gorgeous.. a must visit in Baden Baden!!.. it has a 200 yr old history.. the interiors are just amazing.. you could do a tour for a small fee earlier in the day or just soak up the casino vibes after 3pm. Even if you do not want to gamble you can always just get a drink inside 😉

A nice funicular (railway cable-car) leading to a lovely mountain top with amazing view and nice spots for a picnic. Theres ride takes a few minutes. The tower at the top offers stairs or an elevator (however even with an elevator there are a few steps to climb). There’s also a restaurant there.

An absolute must. We walked from central Baden Baden to the station which was initially very steep. It then levels out. (Regular buses & lots of car parking). The view and walking trails are great. The cafe is reasonably priced. Naturally we scoffed a Black forest gateau which was excellent.

Very accessible by public transportation. The railway itself is amazing, and the view of the Black Forest from the top is stunning. An absolute recommendation!

Great ride to wonderful views , walks picnic areas cafe bar restaurant worth the 7 euros adults family tickets also available

🚠 Merkur Funicular Railway – A Scenic Ride to Breathtaking Views The Merkur Funicular Railway in Baden-Baden offers a delightful experience, combining a smooth ascent with stunning vistas. For just €7 round-trip, visitors are treated to panoramic views of Baden-Baden, the Black Forest, and on clear days, even the Vosges Mountains in France. The ride is quick and smooth, making it accessible for all ages. At the summit, the Merkur Tower provides an elevated perspective, enhancing the overall experience. Whether you’re a nature enthusiast or simply seeking a unique outing, this funicular ride is a must-do in Baden-Baden.

The ride was easy, very little waiting time. The views from the top of vernicular railway were fantastic with cool breeze, sun and good clarity." I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles" came into my head! Can be fresh up there so wear appropriate clothes. Tried to cycle up to the begin point of railway but spent most of time walking with bikes so be warned!! It's steep!

Great way to experience the mountains of Baden-Baden. The day we went here, it was raining. So, the funicular saved our day. The ride to the top is fairly quick. Once you get to the top, the view from there is mind blowing. There's also a tower built there, which gives access to go further high up and the view keeps getting better. A must visit if you are in the area.

A special place to visit to see all the bears, wolves, and other rescued animals. The bears were out and about, but all the other animals were in hiding. The place has a nice cafe/restaurant at the entrance. It's worth the drive if you love bears (animals).

Wonderfully managed and do fulfil a great purpose - bears, wolves and lynx rescued from zoos, circus and private ownership, and allowing them to live cared for in a natural habit. Not a huge site, and won't take more than 1-2 hours to look around it all, but still worth a visit to see their great work.

We visited on a weekend arrived not long after opening and got straight in paid with card on arrival. It is not very well signposted of their os a particular route to take around the park and it seemed some enclosures were under maintanence. The welfare of the animals seemed good and they have space to remain hidden so will not always be possible to see them. A nice place for a walk around onsite cafe is reasonable for snacks. Organic options is good too.

A park for bears, wolves and lynxes rescued from despicable circumstances. Thus, do not expect the typical feed-till-they drop wild animal park here, but large areas for animals that can hide well from visitors and the expectation of absolute silence from visitors. Smoking is also prohibited, which makes the visit much much pleasurable.

a very beautiful park with bears, wolves and lynx. the animals have a lot of space and cover, but it's still possible to see them from the path. signs along the route give you information about each individual animal. when you're in the area, go take a look!

Beautiful area with beauituful view and nature!! Seeing the bears and wolfs was really incredible coming from a person who never seen them up front or in real life before, was delightful to light up my world with new animals, and seeing how they live get fed, being good taken care of 💕 and rescued from dangerous places! Loves meeting them all along with taking beautiful pictures along the way! The bear restaurant has nice ice cream too!

Outstanding environment, very peaceful and a beautiful setting for these incredible animals. Well done to all

A very large market square with shops and restaurants around the sides, we visited on Thursday and there was a good number of stalls in one corner of the space selling apparel

Lovely square of with the fountains. Easy to sit and watch. The flower displays are lovely.

Very large place with a vibrant atmosphere

The largest market square in Germany, very nice, underground parking available for a not so decent fee. Kinderplatz is also available, quite modern and well equipped.

Beautiful small town surrounded by Black Forest (dense pine trees forest). This is one of the place which most of European senior citizens will come for their vacation. Almost all building, old and new, have beautiful facade and decorated with beautiful blooming flowers. Have variety of shops selling good products. For moslems, there are several halal restaurants and cafes established by Turks and Indian moslems.

A beautiful square with shops and cafes surrounding it. There is no fee to go here. There are fountains which go off and on, great for a hot day to run in and out of if you dare! A great place to wander the time away

Every of Europe's city possess squares / platz.... for the citizens to gather and celebrate.... Marktplatz Freudenstad is one among them.... Decorated with spectacular floral gardens enhance it's beauty. The square is surrounded by numerous restaurants supplying the local taste.... and of course a church open all the time for the public for personal prayers...without which no European towns exist.

Great for young children, very educational. There is a 30 minutes walk to the peak, but with the activities along the way it could be over an hour. There are toilets at the end of the experience which is included in the price. Alternatively, there is one before entering which takes euro coins and gives no change back. I found this annoying as I hate to walk around with coins in my pocket. There are playgrounds at the end of the experience for children for which there is a separate fee. I would recommend it for or with children, for adults it is just okay.

Great educational and overall experience. From the entry way a walkway with education and activities for children brings you to the main area with the treetop walkway. Once at the top of the walkway you'll be able to see to the horizon in any direction and there are helpful arrows signposting significant locations and directions. For the adventurous there is a quick way down for only 2€ At the base is a extensive play area for children. Overall a really good experience and very worth the entry fee.

Good easy hike for the family. Fun nature facts are scattered throughout the walk (Kids 6yrs and 4yrs) though there’s admission fee and additional fees for the slide and the playground, worth it for the experience. Costs I’m sure go towards the upkeep. Everything is well maintained. Note: Bring 2€ coins to use the slide.

A very cool place! We visited the Treetop Walk in the Black Forest and really enjoyed it. Since the upper parking lot was full, we hiked up through the forest - a pleasant and scenic trail that made the visit even more rewarding. If you prefer an easier option, there’s a convenient cable car from Bad Wildbad that takes you right to the top. The treetop walkway itself costs around €10 per adult and offers beautiful panoramic views over the Black Forest. It’s an easy, accessible path suitable for all ages. At the top, there’s also a fun spiral tube slide you can take down for an extra €2 - a fun touch, especially for kids (or adventurous adults!). Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Absolutely wonderful walk through the forest. The Treetop walk is both stunningly beautiful and peaceful. If you are going on a weekend, try to go a little before or after midday (fewer folks up there). The views from the top of the tower are long and majestic. The Bergbahn runs up from Bad Wildbad every 30 minutes on the 15th and 45th minutes. Along the walking path are fun activities and some wonderful little bird box/people are hanging in the trees waiting to be discovered.

This is so much fun and a very easy walk from the car park. It offers stunning views and the slide back down is so much fun! Do not miss!

Great days outing in black forest region. Awesome views and activities along the walk and a slide down once you get to the top (extra cost). Parking was easy. Hint - take your own picnic or sandwiches before you head back down.

Reading the various reviews, we weren’t sure WHAT to expect! Indeed, we met the surly ladies at the desk, having arrived during a Sunday afternoon rush when they kept holding the line until other people came out . (Apparently, they ran out of lockers!) I’m amused that so many people complain about the nudity, given that you’re at a sauna in Germany! You’re allowed to wear a swimsuit in the historic part of the spa and in the super warm “blue pool.” It was about 70/30 naked during our visit. The sauna area and rooftop pool (not to be missed!!!) is 100% nude. Honestly, of all the places we’ve been, it felt weird to have swimsuits allowed alongside nudity. It sort of makes EVERYONE feel conspicuous. 🤷‍♂️ The place is an amazing labyrinth of nooks and crannies to explore. And I agree with the people who wish the warm pools in the historic section were warmer. 34•C is not very warm! I’m sure we’ll make our way back one day!

Fluffy towels and robes are provided for your use during your stay. The spa is excellent. The varied aufguss schedule runs hourly, we loved both the ice tea and music sessions and the varied scents used. The Moorish room is such a beautiful place to enjoy lunch. We had pizza and flamenkuchen - both reasonably priced and delicious. It was great to learn more about the history of the spa - thankfully a lady who spoke English translated it for us. It would be appreciated to have a version orinted in English to read and enjoy for those of us who speak German badly. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. We left refreshed and rejuvenated.

Firstly the interior is absolutely the stunning from the tiles and statues to the stained glass - all beautiful. The behavior we witnessed by other patrons was confronting, multiple individuals and couples were being sexually inappropriate with one another in public spaces. It made us extremely uncomfortable as we were there to relax. There were no staff members supervising/policing said rules. There was one particular male sitting on a water jet and moaning loud enough for staff at the cafe to hear and nothing was done. Note that you must be completely nude for the sauna, staff do not explicitly tell you this when you pay so if you’re not comfortable being nude (after what we saw there was no way we were) don’t bother adding it onto your pass. We will not be back. Stars provided as the interior is stunning. perhaps if we went on another day and people were acting like respectful members of society we would’ve had a phenomenal time. Alas this was not the case.

Calais thermal bad was simply amazing and relaxing! The facility is super well maintained and very clean, which wins mega plus point! ..Also the personnel is very helpful, friendly and professional! Pro tip: Mon-Fri. Palais opens only afer 1300h..The location is nested in the small town of Badwild Bad, Northern Blackforest, absolutely beautiful place to unwind and find your peace of mind! Best wishes! IH

AMAZING place. We come once a year from the United States. Note, 90% of what is accessible is cloning free - not optional. If you want to just relax in a warning bath there are rooms downstairs but if you want to enjoy the real saunas it is “textile” free - meaning you can walk around in a robe but when you go in you must be nude. When inside you bring a towel to sit on, but that’s it. Life is short, try it out! Literally no one cares what you look like inside.

Very nice thermes! The ground floor is only bath and very relaxing with big and small baths with different temperature. The saunas are on the higher floors and have all a different vibe. There is a bar and restaurant allowing you to have a drink and grab a bite easily during your stay.

This place is amazing. I spent a whole day here. The baths are very special. Beautiful. I was lucky to have the sunshine on my side and spent most of my day relaxing upstairs on the roof terrace and popping into the saunas and the pool. Can't wait until I can go back

Visiting Hohenzollern Castle was one of those experiences that really stays with you. As we made our way up and started walking around the outdoor observation areas, the view simply took my breath away. The valley stretches out endlessly, and from the castle walls it feels like you’re standing above the world. It’s the kind of view that makes you stop, breathe, and just take it all in. The castle itself is just as impressive as the scenery. It stands tall and majestic, with an atmosphere that carries centuries of history. Walking through it, you can almost feel the presence of the people who once lived there and the important role this place played. Every hallway and corner has a story, and when you step back outside to those sweeping views, it all ties together beautifully. I’ve seen a number of castles in Germany — each with their own charm — but Hohenzollern stood out in a way that felt different. It wasn’t just about the architecture or the history alone; it was the combination of both with its stunning location on top of the hill. That mix of breathtaking scenery and deep history makes it one of the most memorable castles I’ve ever visited. If you’re traveling in the area, I can’t recommend it enough. It’s the kind of place you’ll remember long after you leave.

I loved how they still kept history alive for viewing and provided a free app guided tour. The shuttle to the castle from the parking lot, gift shops and bathrooms in both the castle and parking lot, and restaurants made the tour convenient. But the best parts were the view of nearby lands and beautiful artifacts.

This was a wonderful experience and this castle does not disappoint with sheer beauty located at the top of the mountain. I got lovely photos and videos. There is shuttle bus to the top and an app that gives you an audio tour. There are also many guides on site to answer questions and give you more history. There is a gift shop with beautiful souvenirs and an on site restaurant/bar/cafe. Well worth the visit and I recommend buying advance tickets which are slightly discounted. I also rented a super car on this trip and the drive from Stuttgart was scenic and so much fun in a performance car. Also recommend the drive.

This is a beautiful castle! It is very well maintained. The walk through is nice, and the museum area is really neat too. There's a beautiful outdoor seating area with a beer garden/restaurant. We had lunch and coffee there. We also visited with a baby, and read ahead of time not to bring a stroller due to stairs and tight spaces. So we used a baby carrier instead and it worked perfectly! This is a must visit castle if you're anywhere close in the vicinity. The view looking down is also beautiful.

One of the biggest castles in Stuttgart. This is well-maintained, and the shuttle bus is a great option for the elderly and those with mobility issues. But you will get the best experience if you walk to the castle from the bottom.

Wonderful! It has such a cozy, homey vibe. It’s so great that the family is still preserving it and sharing it with the public. I do recommend downloading the tour app if you want all the detailed history of the castle.

Good place for a weekend visit. Nice view from the castle with benches and lounger to relax and enjoy the sunset. Shuttle service and parking space is commendable. Everything is included in the entry ticket.

We visited the playroom with the whole family and were very pleased! The space is thoughtfully designed: there are areas for all ages, for toddlers, older kids, and even a comfortable place for parents to relax. The kids especially loved the zipline, such a fun attraction! The only thing missing was trampolines. It would be great if they could add some in the future. Otherwise, everything was excellent! The on-site restaurant was also a nice surprise: tasty food, good variety, and very convenient not to have to leave the venue. The prices are a bit on the high side, around 20 euros for adults and slightly less for kids, but the quality and comfort definitely make it worth it. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Great weekend activity for the kids. We went on a Sunday no wait and just the right amount of people. Will definitely be going back as the food was a great quality as well!

Very large indoor park for kids! Not too busy on a Saturday at 1200, but worth the time! Indoor go karts weren’t available at the time but would go back to try those

Pretty cool place for kids 3+. They get you by charging the adults too and the price for food is high but kids really did enjoy themselves. Slightly more to do as your kid gets a little taller/older. Will come back.

This place is just awesome. Super friendly staff and so kuch to do. We went at a time when the Space ship side was closed. Really impressive and large space. Great attractions for all ages.

Sensapolis is a huge indoor theme park with a jungle gym, pirate ship, castle, rock climbing wall, zipline, a futuristic space ship, and a science center. It's a great place to organise a kid's birthday party. The very helpful and friendly service team made the party a great success. There are multiple theme rooms to choose from for hosting the parties, and the catering choices were excellent. It's expensive, but totally worth what you spend. You can bring a bunch of high energy kids here and they will keep themselves fully occupied.

I can give the location a very good rating. There are so much fun activities to do for children. Parents can play with the kids or relax at the many tables there and have delicious food, drinks or snacks. I give only 4 stars, because one big area is currently not available, so you cannot play there.

Four years have passed since my car went up in flames… and not a single word from Mercedes. No investigation, no concern, no accountability. How could this happen? Why did this happen? It seems those questions don’t matter—because to a company of this size, we, the customers, are not the priority. Our safety? Ignored. Our trust? Shattered. The only thing that truly matters to them is our money.

Terrible experience. We booked the intensive factory tour 3 months in advance. We arranged our whole European visit around this booking. It was going to be the highlight of our trip for our teenager. Mercedes cancelled 5 days before the tour date. Instead we were offered this terrible Discovery Tour which is a bus trip looking at the factory buildings. Ridiculous waste of time. Stay away!

Amazing experience. If you are a car freak then it’s a must visit.

I work for Mercedes Benz of Los Angeles and came here to pick up a European Delivery vehicle for a customer. First off, the class of service that was provided by the Mercedes Benz staff was AMAZING. I had such a good experience with everyone. The facility is really nice, the tour guides were worth the trip - the trip to this plant really opened my eyes about the brand itself. A LOT more respect for Mercedes Benz and their innovation for vehicles.

I bought a Mercedes Benz GLB 250, 4 months ago. Yesterday, while driving on the highway, when I use the liquid glass cleaner, the viper did not work. This is very dangerous. If this happened in the cold winter of Canada, it would lead to an irreparable accident. I'm really scared to drive this car right now. I dont feel safe with this car and I have three children and I am afraid to put them in the car. I think another part of this car does not work at all times. Please help me. I do not want to pay for a car in which I am not safe

DO NOT BUY MERCEDES-BENZ! I bought a new 2021 e-class 10 months ago and they sold me a car with so many problems that it is undrivable. I contacted everyone, including the factory from germany and after 10 months, i didn't got the money back, or the car fixed, or a replacement. In short, everybody told me to accept the scam, because they will not do anything to help me. So, after 10 months, i have a car that worth almost 100k euro, but i keep it in my parking lot, because i cannot drive it. I don't know how to fix this and nobody want's to fix it. I contacted EVERYONE from Mercedes and Dimnler. No success so far. So don't buy a Mercedes-benz, because it looks that is a common practice to screw customers over and they all say "I can't help you, accept the scam as it is."

I found the factory incredible, but the tour left a lot to be desired. The information was quite fast-paced and I couldn't get a very good overview on how the machines work because the distances are too far from our sight

If you are a car enthusiast, this is the place to stay. Close to some amazing dealers and the motor world garage itself. The rooms are nice and airy. The sauna is great. But the service is disappointing. We were missing some towels every day. The waiters don't have a handheld device to take orders, they use paper. This resulted in mistakes and frustrations.

This hotel is incredible, especially the theme rooms. I highly recommend it to all car fans. There are a lot of unique cars to be seen inside and around the hotel. Rooms are large and comfortable. They pay attention to every single details and the car-related decoration within the hotel is amazing. The McLaren shop in the lobby is quite nice as well. The bar/restaurant is good with reasonable price for the hotel.

One of the best hotel experiences we spent, me and my wife. The Themed rooms, the service level, the staff who is very friendly and supportive. I love it. we will come again for sure. Ms. Yasmine on the front desk is an amazing person. She made us want to come again for sure.

What an absolutely fabulous hotel. We had the Gulf themed room which was fantastic. Our air-conditioning wasn't working but they supplied two fans which helped. Staff were great and the cars in the hotel were amazing.We had a fabulous time.

Stopped by here on business trip. Great hotel very nice atmosphere. And loved the connection to Autoworld. All those nice cars gonthere if your a car lover

Really cool place to stay. I had one of the theme rooms and it was just too cool. Very large room with an okay view. The place is in the midst of several high end car dealerships which you can wander around and admire some nice vehicles. A few places to eat nearby, but the hotel restaurant was excellent. Prices ate bit higher than many places, but for the cool room and great food was not a bad deal. All the staff I dealt with were very helpful as well.

V8 Hotel, Stuttgart – Car Culture Heaven Wrapped in a Four-Star Stay ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re even remotely into cars — or if someone close to you is — this hotel isn’t just accommodation, it’s an experience. We stayed for a few days in the Tuner Room, part of the themed set of rooms that the V8 Hotel offers. It's built into the fabric of the place: not just car-themed wallpaper or posters, but full-blown automotive decor woven into the furniture — beds built into chopped shells, racing wheels as tables, and detailing that makes the room feel like a celebration of modified culture rather than a gimmick. The Tuner Room nailed the vibe — a blend of rebellious energy and nostalgic car show glory. This wasn’t a family trip — just the two of us, no kids — marking a milestone birthday with a getaway built around food, driving, and gearhead indulgence. V8 Hotel nailed all three. The location is unbeatable for anyone who lives and breathes horsepower. It’s not just near cool stuff — it is part of it. The hotel is directly connected to a classic car storage facility and auction house, and guests are free to walk through and admire the rotating selection of pristine machines: old Porsches, American muscle, early Benzes, and rare exotics. If you’re the kind of person who finds peace in a quiet showroom filled with history on wheels, this place is spiritual. Across the road, there’s a Harley-Davidson dealership, and above it, one of the most unexpectedly brilliant steakhouses we’ve come across. The vibe is relaxed but cool, and the food is spot-on — hearty, well-cooked, and clearly tailored to the clientele. It’s the kind of place where you can eat a huge steak, drink a German beer, and chat cars with half the tables around you without raising an eyebrow. Local restaurants nearby were all surprisingly well priced, and none of them felt like they were coasting on tourism. Good quality, fresh ingredients, and proper portions. Even the hotel’s own breakfast offering was solid — buffet-style, well laid out, and constantly replenished. Not a soggy croissant in sight. Highlight of the trip? We got lucky. On the Friday night, the local Corvette club rolled in for a meet. A proper group of enthusiasts — varied builds, lovely people, and a seriously healthy mix of vintage and modern ‘Vettes. We sat back with drinks in hand, watching C3s through C8s rumble in, owners chatting, doors open, bonnets up, and the hotel courtyard turned into a full-on mini car show within half an hour. Completely unplanned, but the kind of bonus you hope for when you stay somewhere like this. Parking is plentiful and secure. The entire place is clearly designed around car lovers — but it doesn't feel tacky or try-hard. It’s elegant, considered, and clearly created by people who get it. Would I go back? Without question. Next time I might try a different themed room just for variety, but the Tuner Room will be tough to beat. A perfect mix of automotive culture, creature comforts, and a location that puts you shoulder-to-shoulder with people who love what you love. Whether it’s for a special occasion or just a getaway with a twist, V8 Hotel should absolutely be on the bucket list of every petrolhead.
