Franconian Open Air Museum Fladungen

Temporarily Closed
Open air museum
The Franconian Open Air Museum Fladungen was a nice spot for a family visit. The houses were fascinating, preserving their authenticity with original furniture and fixtures dating back to the 1700s. Our little ones enjoyed interacting with the various animals and exploring the intriguing stops throughout the museum. The brewery was also interesting, it still produces beer the same way as in the 1700s and you can purchase some at the reception, along with freshly baked bread. The school and print shop were also great to explore. We were fortunate to witness a nearby Steam locomotive preparing for its operation the next day, which apparently is a rare occurrence that takes place a few times a year. Overall, it was a a very good experience, and we highly recommend it.

(Translated by Google) We took off from the Mainwiesen meadows in Schweinfurt on June 25, 2023. Our pilot, Michael, gave us excellent instructions and repeatedly explained the locations we were flying over during the flight. His confident manner calmed our initial fears. It was an unforgettable experience for us. Many thanks also to the ground crew for their excellent cooperation. (Original) Wir sind am 25.06.2023 von den Mainwiesen in Schweinfurt gestartet.

Es war für uns ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. Vielen Dank auch an das Bodenpersonal für das gute Zusammenspiel.

Due to the weather, there may be occasional/several postponements, but fortunately not for us. Our trip was fantastic, unique and simply beautiful. You should plan: 1 hour assembly 1.5 hour balloon ride 1 hour dismantling 0.5 hour return journey (Original) Die vielen guten Bewertungen sind verdient. Besonderer Lob geht an den Michael und Gundi! Über Jochen Schweizer wurde der Gutschein bestellt. Wetterbedingt kann es gelegentlich/mehrmals zu Verschiebungen kommen, bei uns zum Glück nicht.

Nice place , if someone likes churches, good german food and beer.The path to the Golgotha group leads over a stone staircase . It's one of the oldest of its kind in Germany , built in 1710.

Thermal baths
Spas & Wellness
KissSalis Therme Bad Kissingen is a beautiful and relaxing wellness destination with a variety of pools and amenities, including sauna, steam bath, gym, and saline inhalation steam room. The facility offers varying temperature pools for visitors to enjoy. It's recommended to visit during the week when there is a mature crowd to fully appreciate the tranquil atmosphere. The place also provides good camper van overnight parking and has a restaurant with delicious food options.
One of the best if not the best thermal complex I've visited in Germany. Weekdays are quieter than weekends. 23€ for 3 hours with the sauna area access is very good value for money.
Michael — Google review
Excellent place for a day in a thermal bath. We spent around 3 hours there, and it felt too short. Please remember that the place is not too big, and they calculate headcount to allow you to enter. When we were there around 1 pm, it was full, and we waited roughly half an hour. Inside, there’s also a cafe, and the same cafe can be also found at the entrance. For the price, the place is excellent!

Truly fantastic spa day experience right in beautiful historic Bad Kissingen - this spa has so many perks ✅ Salt bath just float away your troubles ✅ Huge big spa bath ✅ Family friendly ✅ totally affordable- 7€ per hour ✅ Lovely sun “ruhe” room with floating rocker chairs ✅ sauna room (I do believe it’s extra) ✅ plenty of parking but it’s also a bus stop for the city bus too ✅ Food is amazing 🍽 - with vegetarian options too Lovely lovely day
Travel W — Google review
A great place to relax with family or friends, offering multiple pools at different temperatures. I visit frequently and sometimes use the sauna, which has various types with different temperature levels. There is also a relaxation area upstairs with hanging chairs and spectacular views of nature. It’s important to note that this is a nude sauna. If that makes you uncomfortable, it’s best not to pay the additional fee. Additionally, there is a floating pool with a high salt concentration that allows you to float effortlessly. Many people don’t know that there is a Dampfbad (steam bath) upstairs, which is free to use and doesn’t require an additional fee. The facility is wheelchair accessible, and there is even a dedicated pool for people with disabilities. As for dining, the ice cream is delicious, and you can sit indoors or outdoors. The food is quite good considering it’s a pool, spa, and relaxation center. Overall, the atmosphere is excellent, and the staff is friendly and professional.

We spent 2 hours in this thermal bath. Very nice place for family, and also has a quiet place. I have had eczema in my hand for years which keeps coming back. After one day here my skin improved and healed so very fast, less that 24 hours. Our stay here was only 1 night and I wish we had more time to stay longer for my skin’s complete healing. I will definitely return and plan to stay longer in this beautiful and quite town for relaxation time and healing.

Great place for kids of all ages. Free entry. You can buy animal food in vending machines (they take 50 cent coins only). The animals, especially dear, moose etc., jave wonderful huge enclosures.

Easy to spend 2 hours, more if staying at tje pool or playgrounds!

A lot has changed over the years. Coming here since I was a child, so for the last 30 years. And I have to say I could see so much improvement! It's a great place for the whole family. Go for a walk, visit the animals, pet and feed them, go to the playground, play Minigolf, lie in the grass, go in the pool,... Would highly recommend!

It's a great place to go. Peacefully and quiet Tickets are just €18 per person, toilets, bar, they serve alcohol as well. They also have a "nude area" 😁 , and a place with music like a "quiet area" It's worth going you've got no ideas. Parking is big, not very expensive, around €1 per hour or so, €2 maximum
Florin S — Google review
Toskana Therme in Bad Orb is a lovely place to relax and unwind. The saltwater pools are a real highlight—no chlorine, just soothing, mineral-rich water. The food was excellent, and the prices were reasonable, making for a good overall experience. However, there were a couple of minor downsides for me: the water temperature in the outdoor pool could have been a bit warmer, and there weren't enough chairs for the number of guests. Additionally, the area around the pool could use a little more attention in terms of cleanliness. Despite these small issues, it's still a place I would visit again if it were closer.
Cool P — Google review
Despite I am not a big fun of thermal baths I think this one is a nice one. Very new, modern and well organized. Unfortunately the swimming pools are not very big and it tends to be quite crowded especially at peak hours. The inside restaurant does not have a huge variety of food and it is quite basic. There is a very large sauna area with many different types of sauna although you need to be prepared to be totally naked to enjoy 😀. Overall a nice experience!
Gianmarco C — Google review
Nice place to spend the week-end. The pools are heated, indoor and outdoor. It would be nice to have some places to dry the bathrobe and the towels ... It was a music and light festival on Saturday, the 5th of October 2023. Nice athmospere!
Martonosy A — Google review
I really enjoy the swim hall very much. However, tonight, the bubble machine (pumps) were not operational. Part of the enjoyment of the warm salt water is the water features. This particular evening, the music was excessively loud, even in the sound room.
Micky F — Google review
To everyone who is ok with an average spa which is also focused on a normal swimming pool atmosphere this is the place to go. To everyone who is used to a more intimate, quiet and luxurious experience this spa is not recommendable. Showers and clocks are broken, toilets aren't clean, sauna area is crowded at least at the weekend (even though late in the evening).
Hannah S — Google review
A beautiful place with a pleasant atmosphere and an excellent spa.
Avi V — Google review
I’ve been to many saunas and thermal baths before, this one didn’t impress me. Thermal baths were great, we could swim in 2 indoor pools, chill in the jacuzzi and enjoy swimming outdoors surrounded by nature. Sauna area was not so nice. Several saunas were closed. We could only go to 90 and 55 degree sauna and hamam. No cold pool where you could cool down after heat. Jacuzzi had a barely warm water instead of hot. Showers are really uncomfortable to use because the water stream is literally hitting you while changing from hot to ice cold all the time. No shower gel provided. Small details are missing. We also had to decide on and pay for the time of staying before going in. 2 hours 20€, 4 hours 26€ per person. If you stay longer, you have to pay extra for every 30 min. Overall it was okay. But you could feel that there is no soul in it.

(Translated by Google) An easy climb from the parking lot leads up to Maria im Weinberg. At the top, you'll be rewarded with a magnificent view of the surrounding vineyards and the Main Valley. The church itself is rather plain and not particularly worth seeing, but a closer look at the Riemenschneider Madonna is worthwhile. The fine carving is truly remarkable, and the story of the Madonna, which you can read inside the church, is also interesting. The €2 entrance fee is well worth it. If you're nearby and the weather is good, Maria im Weinberg is a pleasant destination for a short stroll. Not a highlight in itself, but combined with the beautiful landscape, it's definitely worth it. (Original) Ein leichter Aufstieg vom Parkplatz führt hinauf zu Maria im Weinberg. Oben wird man mit einer tollen Aussicht auf die umliegenden Weinberge und das Maintal belohnt. Die Kirche selbst ist eher schlicht und an sich nicht besonders sehenswert, dafür lohnt sich aber ein genauer Blick auf die Riemenschneider Madonna. Die feine Schnitzkunst ist wirklich bemerkenswert, und auch die Geschichte der Madonna, die man in der Kirche nachlesen kann, ist interessant. 2 Euro Eintritt sind zu verschmerzen. Wenn man in der Nähe ist und das Wetter mitspielt, ist Maria im Weinberg ein nettes Ziel für einen kleinen Spaziergang. Kein Highlight für sich, aber in Kombination mit der schönen Landschaft durchaus lohnenswert.

(Translated by Google) There's not much to see! Charging an entrance fee, well... perhaps something very special for believers, but still borderline. There's no restaurant on site. The exterior of the complex is not well maintained, and the interior is nothing special either... (Original) Gibt wenig zu sehen! Dafür Eintritt zu nehmen, naja… für Gläubige vielleicht was ganz besonderes, dennoch grenzwertig. Ein Lokal vor Ort fehlt. Die Anlage außen nicht gut gepflegt, innen auch nichts besonderes…

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Kids had an excellent time and did not want to leave. Food options are great and prices are expected to be a bit higher so no surprise there. There a re variety of rides for everyone of all ages. Glad it wasn't too crowded when we visited on 03 July. My favorite ride was the boomerang. Also there a husky friendly rides for my guys who wear a couple XX's in their shirt or waistband. Can't wait to go back next weekend.

Great theme park, food and drink prices not too expensive. Rides are very varied with something for everyone.
Matt C — Google review
In general we had a lovely day there. The park is not that big but offers a wide range of activities for all age groups more suited for families and children. If you are an adrenalin junky you will find a few attractions but not that a variety as in other parks. We liked that there were food stalls and toilets everywhere and the wildlife areas to calm down a bit from the excitement. Some of the attractions seem a bit dated, though they are still fun to ride. The new area that was opened this year (Asia themed) looked nice, but the dragon rollercoaster didn't live up to our expectations. (no real light show or exciting exhibits, could do much better!) If you are looking for a nice family day, this will suit you fine 😉
Sebastian K — Google review
This is a great day out for a family with attractions suitable for all age groups. The park is well maintained and the layout offers plenty of shade and diversity. This would have been five stars from me if the prices were a bit more moderate. Kids pay full price from 1.40 m size, no family tickets and on site food, drinks and ice-cream are quite expensive. I recommend big families to bring their own food and drink.
Roberto G — Google review
Its a strange collection of attractions, some clearly left overs from earlier decades or second hand from other large attraction parks. But, nice atmosphere, green surroundings, not too busy. So, you pick what you like and go over and over again in the same attraction. For younger children lots of fun options. For teenagers too limited. My 13 and 15 year old enjoyed it for a couple of hours, but too few really exciting rollercoasters etc. Prices for food and drinks are high with 3 EUR for a black coffee. Zero vegan options. It's all just s bit out of date or conservative. Maybe exemplary for Bavaria?

Würzburg Residence

Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Historical landmark
The Würzburg Residence is a must-see attraction in the city, known for its opulent 18th-century palace and formal gardens. This UNESCO World Heritage Site showcases magnificent Baroque architecture and lush surroundings. The palace, built between 1719 and 1744 under the patronage of the Prince-Bishops of Würzburg, boasts intricate stuccoes, lavish furnishings, and an impressive fresco by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo.
Gorgeous rococo. Twice a day English tours but the tour is not really necessary. The small von Wagner museum is worth a quick stop (it's free) and the church is small but pretty. There is a tourist town bus that stops outside the Residence during summer months. There are no online tickets sales or time slots.
Kate J — Google review
The decorations were wonderful, and the optical illusions on the ceiling were so impressive that I could have mistaken them for real sculptors. I took a guided tour in English, and they explained every detail, which was very educational. Towards the end of the tour, there were photos of the building that were devastated during World War II, and I was impressed by how well it had been restored.
Taka N — Google review
An absolute masterpiece — easily one of the most breathtaking palaces in all of Germany. The Würzburg Residence is the kind of place that stops you in your tracks the moment you walk in. Even if you’ve visited other European palaces, this one has a unique elegance — a perfect blend of Bavarian grandeur, Italian influence, and French sophistication. The scale, the symmetry, the attention to detail… everything feels world-class. The highlight is undeniably the grand staircase with Tiepolo’s famous ceiling fresco. It’s massive, vibrant, and so full of movement that you could stare at it for ages. The fact that it survived WWII feels almost miraculous. Every room that follows — from the mirrored hall to the intricate salons — feels like stepping deeper into a story where every wall, every frame, every piece of décor has something to say. The flow of the visit is smooth, the staff are friendly, and the signage makes it easy to understand the historical context without feeling overwhelmed. Photography restrictions apply in some areas, but honestly, that makes you focus on the craft and artistry even more. The gardens are another highlight. Perfectly manicured and incredibly serene, they create a stunning contrast with the palace’s ornate interior. If the weather is good, take your time — the angles for photos are endless. In spring and summer, it’s absolutely magical. Overall, the Würzburg Residence is a must-visit. It’s grand, inspiring, beautifully preserved, and one of the crown jewels of Franconian history. A true UNESCO treasure and an unforgettable experience.

The Würzburg Residence is an absolute marvel—both architecturally and atmospherically. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it stuns with its grandeur even before you step inside. The perfectly symmetrical façade, elegant domes, and sweeping gardens immediately signal that you’ve arrived somewhere truly special. Inside, the lavish interiors are almost overwhelming in their beauty. The Baroque and Rococo details, particularly in the chapel and ceremonial rooms, are full of intricate marble, gold leaf, and awe-inspiring ceiling frescoes. You could stand there for hours just admiring the craftsmanship. But what truly sets this place apart is the Residence Garden. It’s a quiet sanctuary right in the heart of the city. The sculpted hedges, fountains, and graceful statues are all arranged with such harmony that walking through the paths feels like stepping into a painting. Whether you’re sitting in the shade of an old tree or admiring the palace from behind a leafy arch, there’s a calming elegance to every corner. This is not just a site for history or art lovers—it’s a peaceful escape where you can slow down, breathe, and enjoy beauty at your own pace.

We spent some time in the gardens of the Residenz which you can do at no cost. The place is neatly maintained and you can get stunning views of the huge baroque palace. There's also parking on the other side of the building as well as a free public toilet nearby.

This is a beautiful place to visit. The opulence is almost overwhelming. It was a little warm inside but not unbearable. The gardens are INCREDIBLE. Highly recommend, very walkable.

This is a unesco world heritage site. Very well maintained especially given that it was damaged during the second world war. The key highlights are the glass room, ceiling art and the gardens. The total visit time would be 2-3 hrs. Do spend time in the gardens. The rooms can feel repetitive after a while with the same greek themed tapestries

Market Plaza Water Fountain

Points of Interest & Landmarks
When visiting Wurzburg, make sure to capture a memorable moment in front of the Market Plaza Water Fountain. This vibrant market square serves as a hub for various events and markets, infusing the town with continuous energy and celebration. The fountain, designed by Johann Andreas Gartner in 1802, features a 15-meter obelisk on a square pedestal with simple fountain bowls in the east and west directions. During warmer seasons, the fountain operates as a focal point of the Lower Market Square.
The water fountain on the Market Plaza is at the base of a tall stone obelisk. Sculpted human figures are present on two sides of the base.
Fred F — Google review
This is an interesting fountain monument at Marktplatz. It is the work of Johann Andreas Gärtner (1802). What you see is a 15 metre high obelisk with simple fountain features that seem to operate during the warmer months of the year. There are classical style reliefs on the side of the fountain that appear to have been added in 1881. We visited Würzburg during December. At that time the base and lower level of the Obelisk Fountain were covered up. However, there were lights strung up around the Obelisk that were turned on in the evenings during the Christmas Market, adding ambience to the festival environs at Marktplatz.

(Translated by Google) The fountain in the market square I saw this fountain with my girlfriend during a day out in Würzburg. It is a tall stone obelisk, located within the market square, with a fountain at the base. The support, with a square base, houses taps that are always open from which water constantly flows and collects in small shell-shaped containers. When all the stalls are present it is not easy to see the lower part. (Original) La fontana di piazza del mercato Ho visto questa fontana con la mia ragazza in occasione di una giornata a Würzburg. Si tratta di un alto obelisco in pietra, situato all'interno della piazza del mercato, con una fontana alla base. II supporto, a base quadrata, ospita dei rubinetti sempre aperti da cui sgorga costantemente l'acqua che si raccoglie in piccoli recipienti a forma di conchiglia. Quando tutti i banchetti sono presenti non è semplice scorgere la parte bassa.
Marco R — Google review
(Translated by Google) It's not every day that you see an obelisk and it fits perfectly into the surrounding Marienmarktplatz. Unfortunately, the market stalls are very close to the obelisk, making a free photo almost impossible. (Original) Einen Obelisken sieht man nicht alle Tage und dieser passt toll in den umliegenden Marienmarktplatz hinein. Leider sind die Marktstände sehr nah an dem Obelisken, wodurch ein freies Foto fast unmöglich ist.

(Translated by Google) Wow, what's the obelisk doing here? Interesting, historic. The focal point of the market square and a good meeting place. (Original) Wow, was macht der Obelisk hier? Interessant, historisch. Mittelpunkt des Marktplatzes und guter Treffpunkt.

(Translated by Google) The fountains in Würzburg have dried up in winter, but the obelisk from the times of secularization and classicism proudly towers over the colorful, decorated and pre-Christmas glowing stalls of the Christmas market. (Original) Die Brunnen in Würzburg sind im Winter versiegt, aber der Obelisk aus den Zeiten der Säkularisation und des Klassizismus überragt stolz die bunten, geschmückten und vorweihnachtlich leuchtenden Buden des Weihnachts-Marktes.

Old Main Bridge

Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Bridge
The Old Main Bridge, also known as Alte Mainbrucke in German, is a historic stone bridge in Wurzburg that dates back to the 16th century. Adorned with statues of saints and historical figures, it serves as a cultural and social hub for both locals and tourists. The bridge offers stunning views of the Marienberg Fortress and the Main River, making it a popular spot for people to gather, especially in the evenings.
Old Main Bridge – Simple, Peaceful, Timeless I didn’t cross the bridge, just saw it from the riverbank — and honestly, that was enough. The red stone arches, the quiet flow of the Main, and the reflections in the water made for such a peaceful moment. It’s not flashy, but it has this calm, old-world charm. Perfect spot for a slow walk, a photo, or just to sit and breathe for a bit.

Great place for a pedestrian bridge. Watch the locks and dams move boats up and down the river and people from shore to shore. The statues and hanging baskets are a nice touch. The benches are an invitation to enjoy the views in all directions. This is a very historic structure. The bars and rearraunts at both ends are good also.
Dan H — Google review
Würzburg is such a charming city, and this bridge is truly the heart of that charm. Grabbing a glass (or two) of wine and watching the sunset here is an experience you shouldn’t miss. The atmosphere is amazing — people chatting, laughing, enjoying the moment together. It’s lively but relaxed, full of warmth and good energy. Absolutely beautiful and priceless experience! Pro tip: buy some olives from a nearby store and take that hedonism to the max...
Luka G — Google review
One of the most iconic attractions in Wurtzburg, the bridge’s architectural style with massive statues tucked in niches resembles closely with Charles Bridge in Prague. Both are really gorgeous pedestrian bridges with splendid views from the bridge and of the bridge from shores. Similarity continues in number of tourists and locals crossing them. I have had opportunity to cross the bridge in the morning before local winery stand opens and in afternoon. Much more palatable in the morning. After wine stand opens, the bridge becomes really congested and hard to cross.
Mike Z — Google review
This is the main attraction of Würzburg. In the evenings, many locals and tourists gather. Everyone tastes the famous local wine. Beautiful views of the city, the fortress and the river. You don't want to leave this bridge!
Valeriy V — Google review
One of the most breathtaking spots in Würzburg — absolutely surreal views! The bridge next to the Rathaus is hands down one of the city’s highlights. Standing here gives you this postcard-perfect view of the old town on one side and the Marienberg Fortress towering above the vineyards on the other. When the sun hits the castle in the late afternoon, the whole scene looks unreal — like something out of a fantasy movie. It’s also a great spot for photos. You get wide angles of the Main River, the historic skyline, and that classic Würzburg charm all in one frame. Whether you’re shooting on an iPhone or a pro camera, this bridge basically does the work for you. There’s usually a lively atmosphere with people enjoying a drink and soaking in the view, but it never feels overwhelming. If you’re exploring Würzburg, this is the place you must stop — the kind of view you remember long after the trip.

Marienberg Fortress

Fortress
Museums
Perched on a hillside overlooking the Main River, Marienberg Fortress is a reconstructed 13th-century stronghold that houses art and history museums. The fortress has a rich history dating back to a Celtic fortification in the 1st century BC and offers insights into the region's past through extensive collections of artifacts at the Main Franconian Museum. Visitors can also explore formal terrace gardens while enjoying stunning views of Wurzburg from this strategic vantage point.
Nice castle on the hill. Amazing panoramic views to Wurcburg city. Nice calm walking trays. There is a bus no.9 going down the hill.
JOvi E — Google review
One of the best strolls in the area : crossing the bridge and leisurely walking up to the fortress in the midst of vineyards. Strongly recommended the castle tour and enjoying the view from the top gardens.
Tony B — Google review
I’ve hiked to the fortress crossing Alte Mianbrucke bridge and going gradually on Zeller Strabe and via chain of town gardens culminating in ascent to back entrance of Marienberg Fortress (with benefit of sightseeing much more than the forest). Given limited amount of time, I have not chosen interior tour, but full loop around the fortress afforded beautiful town and nature views. Returning back to the town via main entrance to the forest was quick and easy descent.
Mike Z — Google review
Worth a visit, even while renovations are underway. At the moment the main part of the fortress isn't accessible, but the museum is still well worth the ttrip. If using public transportation, take the #9 line to get as close to the main entrance as possible.
Nathan V — Google review
The Marienberg Fortress offers a fantastic view over Würzburg and looks beautiful from the outside. Unfortunately, there is currently a lot of construction work going on, so a large part of the area couldn’t be visited. We only stayed outside and didn’t go inside, so I can’t comment on the interior. The parking fees were quite high, so I would recommend walking up from the old town instead — it’s a nice way to enjoy the scenery!
Cara J — Google review
We have just enjoyed a very pleasant and interesting visit to the fortress. The steady climb up from the river provided nice views. Although the fortress is undergoing major renovations until 2032, the museum in the former arsenal was worth a visit, especially for the exhibition on the peasants war for which this year is the 500th anniversary. Being a Sunday admission was only 1 euro each! During the renovations, tours of the main part of the fortress are by guide only, tickets from the visitor centre in the new courtyard. At this time of year (November until Spring) tours are in German only. However, as we were the only two people signed up for the 14:00 tour, the guide was able to do it in English. This was very informative and personal. Our thanks to the lovely guide for this. During the refurbishment, the cafe etc is closed, but there is a kiosk selling cols drinks and hot snacks, plus machines for hot drinks. Overall, well worth a visit!
John S — Google review
A fortress wrapped in history — and home to some of the most unforgettable views in Würzburg. Even though Festung Marienberg was partially under renovation during our visit, the experience was absolutely worth the climb. In fact, the construction almost faded into the background the moment we started walking up the hillside paths surrounded by vineyards and those classic Würzburg panoramas. When we reached the top, everything was covered in thick fog — the kind that makes the whole place feel mysterious and ancient. The fortress walls, towers, and archways appeared like shadows in the mist, and honestly, it added such a cinematic touch. We thought we’d lost the view for the day… but then, a few minutes later, the fog slowly opened up. And that’s when the magic happened. The entire city revealed itself beneath us — the river, the old town rooftops, the bridges, and the rolling hills. It felt like watching a curtain lift on the most beautiful stage scene you can imagine. The contrast between the fog and the suddenly crystal-clear panorama was surreal. You could feel the whole crowd around us go silent for a moment, just taking it in. Even with renovations, the fortress remains a must-visit. The atmosphere, the history, the climb, and especially the views — everything comes together perfectly. If you’re in Würzburg, you simply can’t skip this place. And if you’re lucky enough to catch the fog lifting like we did, you’ll remember that moment for a long, long time.

The path to fortress is incredible and the view from top along with Main river view reminded me of Prague and the bridge resembling some what to Charles bridge. The red roofs and architecturally decorated view was splendid. I would definitely go again.

Wertheim Village is an outdoor shopping mall designed like a village, offering over 100 outlet stores from well-known brands. Conveniently located on the A3 motorway, it's just a 50-minute drive from Frankfurt and 60 minutes from Nuremberg, with ample free parking available. The area is easily accessible by train and bus as well. The village features various wheelchair-accessible boutiques, clean restrooms with facilities for parents, and open restaurants.
I love this place. I come here once every six months and always leave with purchases))) I especially like the selection of sportswear. There are many shops on the outlet territory, there is a restaurant area, toilets are also available. It is best to go here by car, the parking lot is huge and it is free for visitors.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wertheim Village is a fantastic destination for outlet shopping — clean, beautifully designed, and home to a wide range of premium and luxury brands. Whether you’re here for fashion, accessories, or homeware, there’s something for everyone. One standout feature is the excellent concierge service. You can have your shopping bags sent directly to the concierge for collection later, which makes for a much more comfortable and hands-free shopping experience. It’s a thoughtful touch that adds real convenience, especially if you’re planning a full day here. The facilities are equally impressive. The toilets are beautifully maintained and clearly built with comfort in mind — spacious, clean, and even stylish, which is rare for outlet malls. Overall, Wertheim Village delivers a premium shopping experience that’s a cut above the usual outlets. Highly recommended for a day of relaxed, high-quality retail therapy.

Great outlet shopping experience. This outlet is a bit far away from the Frankfurt CBD area if you take a train and bus to get there. Luckily, I found and booked their shuttle bus to get there; it was so convincing. The only comment for their shuttle bus is that the return time is a bit early, at 3:25 PM. This is a beautiful countryside outlet, with a nice view, and many famous shops with great discounts. Their Italian restaurant is quite good. But their waffle shop at the corner is a nightmare; it is cold and not good. And during the trip with the shuttle bus, you can also see a fantastic view.

Burg Wertheim, also known as the Wertheim Castle, is situated on a hillside and can be reached by a 15-minute uphill walk from the village. While it is mostly in ruins, it offers an intriguing historical experience with well-explained historic facts for interested visitors. The castle provides stunning views of the picturesque town of Wertheim. Additionally, there are nearby restaurants and places to relax with family or friends after exploring the castle.
We visited the castle. Restaurant in a castle, what better combination. Of course I tried the food. Everything was delicious, I ordered Mediterranean shrimp, semi-dry white wine and finally an apple strudel with a Baileys latte, the latter I think is a special because I didn't see it on the menu, but I did see it on the blackboard. An excellent experience, the day was sunny luckily and we ate outside with the wonderful view and food. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! Our room was very spacious, and the bathroom was nice and well-designed. While some of the restaurants were closed during our visit, the one available to us was excellent. We opted for the five-course menu, which was absolutely delicious—featuring high-quality, local ingredients that we really appreciated. The highlight of our stay was definitely the spa. It’s an award-winning spa for a reason! We both had treatments, which were incredibly relaxing, and we loved the beautiful pool and sauna area. The whole experience was just perfect for unwinding. Overall, a fantastic stay, and we’d love to come back!

The Wald & Schlosshotel can only be described with superlatives. We found it absolutely fantastic, and the service incredibly customer-focused. From check-in, we felt welcomed and right at home. Our restaurant reservation for the evening hadn’t come through by email, but the staff had already reserved a table for us just to be safe. Very thoughtful! For dinner, we were greeted at the reception by a wonderful older lady who guided us to our table. The service was excellent and friendly, with every effort made to please us. The food was also very tasty. We were offered a schnapps to make up for a couple of small hiccups, and because the staff handled things so professionally, we didn't even notice or weren't bothered by it —but of course we didn’t refuse a schnapps. The second night we ate at the Bonsai restaurant. Again great service and the food was delicious. Nice that they offer such a different type of restaurant as well. Breakfast was a highlight. I always look forward to hotel breakfasts, but this one took it to the next level: a wide selection of delicious, fresh options, plus items à la carte such as several egg dishes, crepes and smoothies. The wellness area is spacious, with a range of treatments and massages, a beautiful indoor and outdoor pool, plenty of lounging space, and several saunas. Do try the foam sauna—it’s a fun experience. We stayed in the Jagdschloss. A beautiful, spacious room in classic Baroque style, with reliable air conditioning, a Nespresso machine, and an inclusive minibar. Overall, we had a fantastic experience. The extraordinary service plays the leading role here—you feel very welcome, and everything is geared toward making your stay enjoyable.

Lovely hotel in a beautiful area. Friendly and very hospitable staff. I loved the classic rooms of Schloss building, comfortable and chic, with a spacious bathroom. Despite you need to walk approximately 100m to the main building for breakfast (which is super) or Spa, the park view from room’s window worth it. Wellness and Spa is great. Only point for improvement - become more kids friendly 😉 otherwise a great venue for relaxation for adults and kids. Food in Waldschänke was good, flexible adjustments to food preferences such as gluten/lactose free were easy. The gluten free bread buns for breakfast were delicious, still warm from the oven.

The breakfast was delicious, and the staff was so friendly and helpful, The spa is stunning, and one of our highlights was we got to drive the AMG EQS from the hotel. The property is very well maintained and does not look old, despite the more "classic" feel. We totally recommend the hotel. It's perfect for a retreat in the german countryside.

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.
Kasia M — Google review
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.

Science museum
Experimenta - Das Science Center is an educational institution that offers interactive learning experiences for children and adults in a unique brick warehouse building. The center is divided into four themed zones, providing hands-on activities to spark curiosity and excitement. It is particularly suitable for children who are unlikely to become bored with the diverse range of exhibits available. The museum also has a well-stocked shop offering reasonably priced items, and a restaurant that serves delicious food.
The science center is amazing. There are a lot of interactive activities to try. You need additional ticket for the 3D movies at Science Dome but it's worth it. Highly recommended!

My wife took us to the science museum as a birthday gift for me - 10/10 would recommend (the museum, the wife’s spoken for). We had a lot of fun - was there at the opening and lost track of time inside! Don’t forget to utilize the digital backpack and check-ins at certain activities, it’s very useful and kinda plots you your interests for future (or alternative) career paths. The restaurant has some great options when you feel hungry, and all the staff is very helpful and friendly!

Very nice museum. Top 4 floors are designed for kids under 12, to try out everything themselves. Science dome has movies that are interesting for all. There were extra exhibitions to visit but we ran out of time. Price is very acceptable. We even got a parking discount. Very large parking building right next to the museum.

Truly excellent place this. The exhibits/activities are really well thought out and creative. You could easily spend multiple days in there to get around everything. The prices we very fair (also the restaurant) which was refreshing in comparison to many other attractions these days. If you have kids then you have to visit this place if you are in the area.

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 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.
Ouissal B — Google review
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!
Greta P — Google review
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 👌

Model railway exhibits from the renowned manufacturer, covering 1000 square meters, plus a shop.
Really enjoyed my time at the museum. The many well executed interactive elements (some with high educational value also) and Märklin showcasing their long history of toys besides model trains makes it a museum worth visiting for the whole family.
Sander H — Google review
This is set out on 3 floors. The first being a shop floor with a cafe. The second floor is part of the museum and is more like a historical look back at some of the products and toys this brand has made and sold. Finally the third floor is where all the model trains are kept (Behind plexiglass) For many people who are into trains, this will undoubtedly be a pleasant place to visit. My only concern is the high entrance fee to visit the 2 floors which are essentially a brands selection of previous products (a show room) and so the 10 euro per adult fee seemed disproportionate for what it was. Sure it’s a nice place to visit, and those with a keen interest in trains and train models should really enjoy this. But i can’t see the value in relation to the cost and what was on show. I personally think the first floor (no charge) is the best option and skip paying the high fees to visit upstairs.
Mrs R — Google review
So cool lots of cool things to see. So much history about model railroad hobbies. There's lots to see and do here make sure you have at least an hour to view the museum. And more if you want to go see the HO layout in the basement. If you are in the area definitely check it out 10/10

Nice museum and shop. The factory section to see the manufacturing was closed. Had to pay 10 euro to enter which seems extreme as it is advertising for the brand. The prices at the bistro were very good though. The bistro employees were very friendly and helpful.

Märklineum: The Märklin Museum and Bistro are Closed undergoing reconstruction until approx September 2019, when it should be open for the 2019 Göppingen model expo. The Gift/Model Shop, Technical Centre and the Fund Grube are open and very well stocked with all the current stock as well as the Complementary display Items from all the leading Brands There are items in the Fund Grube that ard at a reduced price, either below quality for shipping or extra items like loads for wagons or special items. The Buildings are fully accessible with a very wide stepless entrance. It's very well laid out with good space between the display cases, there are toilets and lockers behind the Technical Desk. There is a wooden train-set to try and keep the littlest ones distracted while you look through the Book shelves.

If you are into train models then this is the place to visit! It was a eyeopener for me as I never new a small model could cost 3-4000 EUR!! A 20cm electric rail track 180 EUR! This is definitely not a hobby for kids but kidults!! 😁 who can spend cash on their hobby.

We recently had the chance to visit the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, and it was an incredible experience. The moment you walk in, you're surrounded by a stunning display of design, speed, and innovation that reflects the true **triumph of German engineering**. From the earliest Porsche models to cutting-edge concept cars, every exhibit showcases precision, craftsmanship, and a relentless pursuit of performance. The museum's architecture itself is strikingly modern, mirroring the brand’s forward-thinking spirit. We were especially impressed by the motorsport section, which highlights Porsche’s dominance on the track and the technological breakthroughs behind it. Whether you're a lifelong car fan or just curious, the museum offers a deep appreciation for what makes Porsche — and German engineering as a whole — world-renowned. We left inspired and uplifted especially my husband who is cars enthusiast! Definitely must see!

Visiting this place is a must if you appreciate automobiles and the culture surrounding them. Although it is located a bit outside the city's heart, the experience is worth the travel. Be prepared for a potentially bustling atmosphere, as many people share your interest. To avoid queues and ensure entry, consider purchasing your tickets ahead of your visit. Enjoy the impressive assortment of Porsches on display for you to admire.

Such a cool experience to be able to go here, loved the interactive bits but the story telling could’ve been done better for Ferdinand Porsche’s life. Coming from my time in the Mercedes Benz museum down the road which did their story telling impeccably.

The Porsche Museum is absolutely incredible and a must-visit for anyone who loves the Porsche brand. The collection is stunning, with so many iconic cars from throughout Porsche’s history displayed in a beautifully curated space. From groundbreaking race cars to legendary road cars, every exhibit highlights the brand’s innovation and engineering excellence. My personal favorites were the Nurburgring record-breaking 919 Evo, which is breathtaking to see up close, and the Carrera GT, a true masterpiece of design and performance. The museum perfectly captures what makes Porsche special, and it’s well worth the trip for any automotive enthusiast.

Wilhelma Zoological and Botanic Garden is a vast zoo and botanical garden located in a former royal park dating back to the 19th century. Originally created as a private retreat for Swabian King Wilhelm, it has now become one of Germany's largest zoos, attracting over two million visitors annually. The site features Neo-Moorish style buildings set amidst lush gardens, offering a unique setting for its diverse collection of animals and plants.
The best zoo in the world. I've been to all the London zoos and lots more throughout the UK and internationally — this must be the best zoo ever! It’s spacious, beautiful, clean. It wasn’t busy or crowded at all, even on a Sunday. Also it’s huge with so many animals! Which on the whole seem happy and looked after. And the gardens and greenhouses are stunning. Even the food and canteens/restaurants are lovely. We had the best day ever. And there’s so many play areas for kids as well. 10/10 you have to come if you’re in the area. You won’t regret it.

Beautiful garden + zoo which is so nicely maintained. The garden is spectacular. There is the cactus area which would mesmerize all garden lovers. The surroundings are well kept. The Amazon experience is amazing. The animals can be viewed closely, that's how the landscaping is done for their enclosures. Multiple restaurants are within the Wilhelma zoo. Not to forget some lucky ones even got peacock feathers. We visited on a Saturday with kids and it was a day well spent.

Huge place to visit, great value for money of you go on sight seeing. Wilhelma is both a botanical and a zoological garden with a great collection in both fauna. There are a lot of things to do for children (special places were they can climb and play) but as well as a lot of places to grab something to eat or a coffee or a … bear.

This was by far the biggest coolest zoo we've ever been to! Beautiful botanical gardens too! There's different microclimate buildings with native plants to those regions and the animals are out in their habitat when you walk through. We've never experienced anything like it, definitely the coolest thing we did while we were in Stuttgart! Parking was 8 euros, we spent 6 hours making our way through the park and could have been there even longer than that. We used the 3 day stuttcard that we purchased for entrance at the zoo. Well worth your time!

Wilhelma is an absolute must-visit and a stellar example of modern zoological care! From the moment you step inside, the entire park feels incredibly well maintained—a truly pristine environment. The focus on animal welfare is clear; the complex features very good, spacious animal sanctuaries that clearly contribute to happy animals throughout the exhibits. It's truly heartwarming to see the dedication of the staff, and it’s obvious there are a lot of workers enjoying their job, which adds to the positive atmosphere. A fantastic, ethical, and beautiful day out!

I have visited zoo and botanical gardens lot of time but the trip to Wilhelma was a unique experience. It is constructed such that to give a natural habitat to the animals while people can also experience how the animals of wild look like. You can see them real close through glass windows. This was a very unique experience. There are all kinds of animals and birds. Since I have been only one time, due to limited time, I couldn't visit the Amazon forest and botanical gardens. But I am thinking of getting a yearly pass next year. Amazing experience. The nature truly is amazing and beyond words.
Shivam R — Google review
An absolutely impressive experience! Zoo Whelma stands out through its clever design and remarkable attention to detail. The artificially recreated habitats are vast and carefully crafted to reflect the natural environments of the animals. I was especially amazed by the presence of rare endemic species and the seamless blend of native flora with matching fauna. The dioramas are stunning, and the entire park feels like a perfect mix between a botanical garden and a zoo — a truly unique and memorable concept. It beautifully combines restored older sections with newly developed areas, showing both tradition and innovation. You can clearly see the passion and professionalism behind this project. I’m really looking forward to the opening of the two new wings, which will surely make the experience even richer. Highly recommended for all nature, education, and wildlife lovers!

All this green area , birds and animals is a joy of soul and eyes. Never had this much of calm in a very long time. I am happy that I visited it today. Note : I arrived at the gate and it was opened and none there , I stepped one foot to see where is the staff and a guy firmly asked me to step outside again. I didn't and showed him my ticket , he check it and then allowed me to enter. His behavior was so rude.

The Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart is a true architectural and historical masterpiece, offering an immersive journey that appeals far beyond just automotive enthusiasts. It is, without a doubt, one of the best corporate museums in the world and a must-visit landmark in Germany. Brilliant Architecture and Chronological Design The building's ingenious double-helix architecture guides the visitor through time. You ascend to the top floor—the birth of the automobile—and then spiral down through nine levels, witnessing 130 years of history unfold chronologically. This unique design ensures a seamless and captivating flow. The lighting, presentation, and curation of the exhibits are world-class, giving every vehicle, from Karl Benz's first patent motor car to the modern F1 racers, the reverence it deserves. Innovation Contextualized in World History What truly elevates this museum is how it integrates the vehicles with parallel world history. Each exhibition floor connects Mercedes-Benz's technical progress with defining moments and culture of that era. You see the evolution of luxury, safety, and racing innovation—including the legendary Silver Arrows and the iconic "Gullwing" models. The sheer volume and diversity of cars, trucks, and prototypes are breathtaking, illustrating Mercedes-Benz's influence on global mobility. Conclusion: For its stunning design, technical depth, and engaging historical context, the Mercedes-Benz Museum is a powerful experience. The exhibition is impeccably maintained, the staff are helpful, and the ticket price offers fantastic value for a deep dive into industrial heritage. Allow at least three to four hours to properly explore this brilliant celebration of engineering. Highly, highly recommended when visiting Stuttgart.

It was a unique experience from my side. After having parked the car, we entered to the museum and took the elevator to the top floor where you are going to start your journey. From classic cars to classic sport cars and from recent road stars to formula cars. I mean simply amazing. The most important thing to do in the city.

⭐ 10/10 — a place I’d gladly visit again I visited the Mercedes-Benz Museum on a Sunday and it turned out to be a great decision. It wasn’t crowded, so I could walk around comfortably and really enjoy the atmosphere. The whole place is extremely clean and well-organized, and you can see how much attention is put into every detail. The audio guide was another highlight: clear, easy to follow, and filled with interesting facts. It doesn’t just talk about cars, but also about the history and the world around the inventions. At some points it genuinely feels like a small time-travel experience. Even if you’re not a big car fan, the museum still has a lot to offer. It tells a wider story about innovation, progress and the people behind it all. Each floor adds something new and keeps you curious. I’m not adding too many photos here because I’d rather keep some intrigue for future visitors. If you’re in Stuttgart, this place is definitely worth a visit. 👉 Highly recommended 👍

The Mercedes-Benz Museum isn't just a place for car enthusiasts; it is a meticulously curated journey through industrial and global history that easily earns its five stars. The experience begins with a profound reverence for innovation, celebrating Mercedes-Benz as the true pioneer of the internal combustion engine—the very invention that birthed the modern automobile in 1886. The cloverleaf architecture is genius, guiding visitors chronologically through the "Legend Rooms." You descend through nine floors of history, witnessing the evolution from the first Patent-Motorwagen to the latest concepts. The promise of the museum holds true: it has all the cars, showcasing an incredible collection of over 160 vehicles, including legendary Silver Arrows, luxurious Popemobiles, and iconic vehicles from every era. What elevates this museum far above others is its educational depth. It skillfully weaves the story of the founders, Carl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler, presenting not just their creations, but the entrepreneurial spirit and visionary ideas that drove them. Even more impressively, the museum integrates this automotive narrative with the broader history of the world, offering context on social and technological upheavals, allowing you to see how the car shaped (and was shaped by) the events of each period. It is a stunning, comprehensive, and perfectly presented exhibition that honors a legacy of engineering excellence. An absolute essential visit in Stuttgart!

The Mercedes-Benz Museum is nothing short of extraordinary—a world-class experience that blends automotive history, innovation, and storytelling into one unforgettable visit. From the moment you step inside the striking, futuristic building, you’re transported into the rich legacy of one of the world’s most influential automotive brands. What impressed me most was the sheer breadth of historic Mercedes-Benz models on display. The museum takes you on a chronological journey, beginning with the very invention of the automobile and guiding you through decades of engineering achievements, design evolution, and cultural impact. I was genuinely amazed to discover just how deeply Mercedes-Benz has been woven into major historical moments over the years—whether in motorsport, luxury travel, or groundbreaking technological advancements. Each exhibit is thoughtfully curated, offering the perfect blend of information, visuals, and interactive elements. This isn’t just a place for car enthusiasts, though they will certainly be in heaven. It’s an experience the whole family can enjoy. There’s so much to see, explore, and learn that even those who aren’t deeply into cars will find themselves captivated. The museum is spacious, beautifully organized, and designed to keep visitors engaged at every turn. Make sure to give yourself plenty of time—at least a few hours—to truly appreciate everything the museum has to offer. From early prototypes to legendary racing cars, from elegant classics to modern innovations, every level reveals something new and fascinating. Incredible in every sense, the Mercedes-Benz Museum is a must-do for anyone visiting the area. Whether you’re a lifelong fan of the brand or simply curious about automotive history, this museum delivers an experience that is both inspiring and unforgettable. Highly recommended.

Schlossplatz

Historical place
Sights & Landmarks
Schlossplatz is a central square in Stuttgart, known for its gardens and the 1841 Jubilee Column. It's a hub of cultural activity with open-air concerts and summer festivals. The area also showcases modern sculptures by renowned artists like Alexander Calder, Alfred Hrdlicka, and Otto Hajek. Street art enthusiasts will appreciate the city's creative scene, including a popular tourist attraction called the Hall of Fame in Bad Cannstatt.
Some places aren’t just beautiful — they speak to something inside you. Schlossplatz is one of them. The old stones seem to hold quiet stories, and the evening light paints the buildings like someone is brushing the city with love. I just stood there, listening to a violinist, soaking in the moment. If you're nearby — don’t rush past. There’s a kind of peace here, even in the middle of the crowd.

Not a public place. Often taken over by private shows and activities which block the views to the visitors. Should not be a location for shows and events. Visitors are interested in the natural beauty of the state property with no commercial events or shows. Money is always king of the people

Schlossplatz is truly the heart of the city and absolutely deserves five stars! It is a stunning, beautiful landmark that immediately impresses visitors with its grand scale; it's a truly large square perfect for relaxing. What makes it exceptional is how impeccably clean and safe it feels, clearly being well-protected by police presence, allowing you to enjoy your visit worry-free. After enjoying the scenery and the calm atmosphere, you'll love that the surrounding area is packed with many excellent restaurants to eat at. A perfect central destination!

Not that impressed by Schlossplatz. The building and the park are nice but it was very very crowded. Not sure what it is exactly but it is missing the vibe that cities like London or Paris have… On the positive side; we found Coffreez; a really nice coffee take away bar. See foto.
Maarten H — Google review
It was really crowded when we went. There are a lot of cool things to see here. A lot of shopping as well. The flea market was open when we went, so we got to see a lot of old items. We went in the November, and they were setting up for the Christmas Market.

Great place to visit and grab a bite to eat. Beautiful and very picturesque. We were there during UEFA Nation's League Cup and the atmosphere was electrifying

Stuttgart hasn't that much to offer to visitors if you don't count two outstanding car museums in its suburbs. The central area is mostly modern and new rebuilt after WWII grounding of entire city. Schlossplatz, or the Palace square is the best attraction from historic point of view. Like you might conclude it's in the very center. A huge Wurtemburg Kings palace dominates the square on the eastern side. In the middle is the unification obelisk erected in honor of Wurtemberg joining the German confederation, with two nice fountains. The square is full of people having their free time and picnic there, while around the square are several bars and restaurants to sip a drink and enjoy the beauty

Ascend the Stuttgart TV Tower, a renowned landmark offering breathtaking city vistas and an adrenaline-pumping experience for thrill-seekers. This architectural gem stands at 217 meters tall and features open-air viewing platforms at around 150 meters, providing unparalleled panoramic views of Stuttgart, the Neckar Valley, the Alb, the Black Forest, and the Odenwald. Delve into its history at the on-site museum before savoring a meal at its restaurant while soaking in the mesmerizing scenery.
Prob the tallest tower in Europe n the view from up there is wild! Lift takes just 36 secs to shoot u up. Saw Stuttgart from way above—stadiums, highways n all. Def worth it. If u can, carry a binocular for extra fun at the top. A must-do spot!

The TV tower in Stuttgart is an impressive landmark and well worth a visit. It is included in the Stuttgart card, and there is also free parking right at the site which makes the visit easy. The ticket office doubles as a small souvenir shop with many interesting items, adding to the sense of arrival. Going up just before sunset proved to be a magical choice, as the city and surrounding hills slowly changed colour with the fading light. The panorama from the top is wide and striking, stretching far across the region. It is one of those places where the timing of your visit makes a big difference, and sunset truly enhances the experience.

A striking feat of engineering and a symbol of post-war innovation in Germany. Completed in 1956, it was the world’s first television tower built using reinforced concrete; an architectural model that inspired towers worldwide, including those in Toronto and Johannesburg. Standing 217 meters tall, the tower offers panoramic views of Stuttgart, the Neckar Valley, and even the distant Alps on clear days. A high-speed elevator takes you to the observation deck, where the city unfolds in all directions. Informative displays at the base explain its construction and global significance, making it more than just a lookout, it's a monument to modernist vision. Whether you're an architecture buff, a history lover, or just chasing the view, the Stuttgart TV Tower delivers a sky-high experience with substance.

Best view of the city could be possible from here. It is first TV tower so worth to visit and experience the engineering at that time. Price is bit too much under 10 euro make more sense, may be maintenance or whatsoever cause for current price. There is restaurant, funny is price is super expensive and rules is per sit you have to buy food, even for kids too. Plus we had experience from one lady staff member and feel not so welcoming only smile came after tip 😏. I would recommend to bring your small food or whatsoever stuff with you and go to the tower to enjoy the view only.

Easy to park in front of the tower, nice view of the city and elevator! Only the staff at the panorama cafe was a bit slow when we were waiting to be sit down, otherwise good.
Tomáš I — Google review
Was actually a very nice experience. I went on a late Sunday night, everything was closed so decided to give the tower a chance. The views were great up there and the staff very friendly. To go up there is some info that you can read and the elevator was very smooth. Supposedly there is also a cafe up there. Since was Sunday it was closed.
Ricardo F — Google review
Great view at the sunset. I went on a Monday end of August, there was no line and very easy to park the car. Elevator goes up to 150m. Altitude on the top is ~643m you have a good look of Stuttgart. Take a jacket because it’s windy at the top.

Ah, Fernsehturm Stuttgart – that “boring concrete tube” suddenly turns out to be one of the most satisfying viewpoints in Germany. From the ground, it looks like just another TV tower, but step onto the observation deck and… bam! Stuttgart, vineyards, and the Alps all in one shot. Suddenly you realize you’ve been looking too low your whole life. The elevator is fast and comfortable – perfect if you don’t want to tire your legs, and the spiral stairs? Oh, those don’t exist, so you can just feel like a VIP enjoying the city from your perch in the sky. The deck is high enough to give a slight “oh wow, this is high!” thrill, but not so high that you need to grit your teeth. In short: Fernsehturm Stuttgart looks unassuming until you go up and discover it’s more spectacular than many so-called “Instagrammable architectural stars.” The queues are minimal, the views are maximal, and the satisfaction of feeling on top of the world is absolutely guaranteed.
