Museum MORE has become one of my family’s favorite museums in the region, and this was our second visit within a year! Even though the scale of the museum is relatively small, but it has a very tasteful permanent collection, accompanied by interesting, thought-provoking exhibitions all year round. Since we have a 6-year-old, we always pay particular attention to how a museum caters to children and try to get them involved in the art world. Museum MORE has a dedicated, beautiful space just for children visitors to be artsy and creative. They also provide guides, fun activities, ample coloring pencils and clipboards, encouraging and guiding the children to explore the museum space at their own pace and according to their own interest. Besides its exquisite art collection, the beautiful architecture itself, both exterior and interior, also deserves to be mentioned. There’s something magical about the way light floods in through those huge glass windows and ceiling, making the whole space feel open, bright, and full of life. The museum shop near the entrance also has a very good selection of books and all kinds of items for audience of all ages. If you are a modern/contemporary art lover and happens to be in or around Gorssel, it’s definitely worth your while to check this place out!

Always something interesting to see here. We all enjoyed the exhibit from Erik Mattijssen a lot especially. Not too big either which I like.

Great museum in the small town of Gorssel. The permanent collection didn't inspire me too much. Some interesting works were on display. However, the exposition by Cornelis Völker is excellent, very inspiring and comprehensive collection of paintings with relevant themes. Very seldom to see a modern artist portrait the world so simply, yet so accurate.

Beautiful museum, set in a very pretty little village. The permanent artwork and the guest exhibition were both amazing Will visit again for sure

A must. Worth a detour. Try those delicious cakes in the restaurant. Immaculate.

Excellent collection of modern realism painting and sculpture by Dutch artists. I loved some paintings, but a few sculptures look scurry as from horror movies. Permanent collection is big, and there is an exhibition. Parking is big and free. Stuff is very friendly and supportive. The museum has access for wheel chairs.

Museum MORE is a Dutch museum in Gorssel, Netherlands. The display of the paintings and exhibits it is totally worth it, even though the location of the museum is not very convenient and takes some time to travel. The paintings guide you through a diversity of emotions and the realism of the exhibits is unbelievable. Museumkaart is valid for a discount on the entrance ticket. I enjoyed my visit here and do recommend to add the museum on to visit list in Netherlands.

From a 2,000-year-old bog girl to masterpieces by Van Gogh, the Drents Museum holds a remarkably diverse collection. The museum buildings themselves are like a maze—filled with hidden corners and exhibition rooms that often lack signage. Exploring this museum feels like opening one mystery box after another, each filled with unexpected surprises!

When you visit Assen, this is a place you should not miss. From beautiful paintings and sculptures, stories about the history of the settlement of the city and the province of Drenthe, to a visit to the doll's house. Varied and fun.

Nice museum, unfortunately due to the ongoing renovations for a new exhibition a big part was closed but nonetheless enjoyable experience. Loved the exhibition about Antonio López, never really knew the artist but that’s what makes museum visits enjoyable. You get to learn and experience new artists and artworks. Definitely recommend going to the Antonio López exhibition before it ends.

A truly surprise. Totally unexpected. It’s a great museum. Maybe not as for the collection but for its “mise en scene”. I really really enjoyed it and totally worth the time to go.

Really laid back here. Don’t forget to walk around Labyrinthia - there’s a sense of getting lost reminiscent of childhood. Photos are from the cafe, which has a very pleasant atmosphere as well as softer acoustics!

Every time I thought I'd seen it all found another room. Amazing art, history and interactive features. Loved it. Well worth a visit.

Nice museum with nice shop. The exhibition about Pompei was beautiful and despite the crowds you could still see everything well. And you easily have 3hours tour with permanent collection and other exhibitions.

Great experience to relive the Roman period in Germany, from before year 0 until year 500. Seeing how the large city evolved prospered and eventually fell apart under siege from the Frankish tribes. Wander thru the Colosseum, up and down the embankment and fortified walls, stroll along the paths thousands of Romans walked before you and learn stuff in the museum. Well worth a day's visit!

Amazing! For 11 Euros per adult and children for free, a great price. A huge, beautiful park with so much to see and do. If you like Roman artifacts and history it is a must!

I was on Xanten Archaeological Park for a first time on my life. IT was amazing experience for me. The most I enjoyend the colosseum its fantastic feeling when u are there u can feel the history:). The museum is also very good with the few floors and a lot od ancient artefakts. So when u will have oportunity to go there Just do IT as is realny amazing place for a trio.

Incredibly large area (site of a Roman city) with wonderful recreations of the buildings. The car park at the main entrance needs a parking card and is only for 4 hours - you may need more time!! Play areas (massive fort and bouncy thing) for young people.

A wonderful day spent in this archaeological park. Lots of beautiful reconstructions that evoke the life of the Romans in the former Colonia Ulpia Traiana. Especially the colosseum and the temple. It's huge! The reconstructions are still being done, so it's worth coming again. There's a lot to walk around. But also to see. The trees in the park are well trimmed, so there's no shade, but they will grow. The paths are the main roads of the former Ulpia. At the other end is a large and very rich and beautifully decorated museum and the remains of the thermal baths.

A History museum done right. Experimental architecture is thé best way to help people imagine the past. The archaeological Museum Xanten shows how it can be done. Even though this might not be for everyone, for those interested in history, with all levels of prerequisite knowledge, it's a great visit. The (partial) reconstruction of the houses, the amphitheater and the temple are great and I particularly enjoyed the ship building shed. The museum is a nice visit as well with information available in English, German or Dutch.

LVR Archaeological Park Xanten in Germany's largest archaeological open-air museum invites you to an exciting excursion into history. Impressive buildings such as the harbor temple and the amphitheater, residential buildings and bathing facilities provide vivid insights into life in Roman Germania. In addition, the award-winning LVR-RömerMuseum, excavations and activities to participate offer a variety of incentives to approach Roman times with all your senses. For children, the meadows and large playgrounds offer many opportunities to let off steam and discover. Good value for money and reasonably priced selection of food, drinks coffee also fair prices. Really good place for kids. Playing area very clean and beautiful 😻 my kids and other kids also really enjoyed! Thank you so much for your good maintenance.

Great time! The zoo in Emmen is truly amazing! It’s very clean and well-maintained, and the indoor jungle is absolutely stunning – a real highlight. The animals live in environments that feel almost completely natural, which makes the whole experience even more special. There are plenty of places to sit and relax, the restrooms are spotless, and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. A wonderful place to visit – highly recommended!

Absolutely lovely place, so much to see and so very lovely done. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Great for everyone all ages. Indoor outdoor different things to see. Will be back.

Wildlands ZOO in Emmen is a truly wonderful destination for families with kids and toddlers. It’s not too small, but also not too large—absolutely suitable for a two-year-old energy vampire! The park also features a roller coaster and a 6D simulator for some extra fun. There are plenty of snack stands for when you—or your little tornadoes—get hungry. It’s great that there are some opportunities to interact with or touch certain animals. Another way to get closer to the wild side is by hopping on the safari truck or taking the boat ride. The curious giraffes are especially fun when they come right up to the viewing platforms. We spent around five hours there during the “summer days” when the park stays open until 21:00. Honestly, six hours would probably be the sweet spot if you have a toddler along with you.

Wow This is the best zoo I have ever visited. The ethos is to enable interaction with the animals wherever possible and in many areas there are no fences which enables this. Boat and safari type truck rides enable even closer interaction and the whole layout and design of the place couldn't be better. We visited on a weekday out of season and it wasn't that busy. I would imagine that weekend or at peak season the experience wouldn't be as good due to the potential about of people so would recommend a quieter time to enjoy it most. Food and drink prices are a bit high but the overall value for money is excellent.

We came from Utrecht by 2 hours driving, totally worth it! Good facility, new zoo from 2016, fairly modern facilities, gigantic tripical park is the highlight, feels like being in southeast Asia!

I was a little bit frustrated because I couldn't understand why the price was so high for such a small park. However, it costs them money. One thing we didn't like was the huge queue you had to wait in for getting a ride, especially when I was along with three children and there was a hidden queue by the trees (I wouldn't take it if I saw it) without a stroller (because you can't take it in a queue) for the 1-year-old... we were waiting for 1 hour, and the ride was only 5-7 minutes. Katastrophe! It spoiled all good feelings. However, the park is good. You feel really in touch with nature. There are a lot of cool animals. Butterflies and hippos were our top picks. Great workers are in the butterfly area. I would only not recommend you take the boat or safari; otherwise, everything was ok. P.S. And also, there is no info on the website that there is only central parking, so make sure that you park your car on Qpark, or you will have to take turns and wait longer.

super enjoy , very beautiful zoo.. different style or design , well organized every area. animals are like in their own habitat. did like the boat and bus/train ride.

What a wonderful place to get exercise, see a great view of the town (I went at sunset!), and have some FUN! This is an interactive sculpture that is a walkable "roller-coaster" (minus the rollers). I uploaded a video of doing the walk on my youtube and sped it up to give it the 'roller-coaster' feel for funsies. Make sure you wear pants under your skirt! As the walkway of the sculpture is metal-mesh and not all solid. Be careful on windy days... Other than that, it's a great place to take pictures! When you enter, you can choose to go right or left. The right side is the longer way. Either way, you have to return back to the beginning going back the way you came, so it doesn't matter which way you choose first -- you can go both ways. There are gates preventing you from accessing the "upside down" part of the loop (obviously for safety reasons). At the base of the sculpture, there are a few benches to sit on. There is also a trashbin near the benches. There's a short hike up an easy incline up a hill to reach the spot from the nearest tram stop. There are also a couple "shortcuts" that cut through the wooded area -- but maybe you need a local to show you where they are... xD When you get off the tram, just follow the paved road to the top and you won't get lost. (Be sure to keep track of the tram time schedule so that you can plan your trip accordingly!) Oh! BTW it is totally FREE! Like most best things in life are sposto be.... yey. Enjoy Germany!

A very nice experience. You can take a walking trail around in nature. On the paths between the trees. When you go up there is an interesting facility like an amusement park. You can go up the stairs but you can't go down the other side. You have to go down the side you go up. Because there is a part in the middle where you can't go. At night the lights come on and you see the sunset. A spectacular sight.

Great, different, free! A walkable roller coaster, only the looping sections were blocked because you can't walk upside down! 😂 The walk up in complete darkness at first (at night 🌃) was a bit spooky 👻 but was well rewarded. 🎢💡

Free of cost.. Beautiful scenic view Lovely long walk and cycle paths of around 1.5 km to reach point once u deboard the tram.. Loop is not accessible it is upto a certain point one can go. Best time to visit is during sunset or sunrise.. look good when lights are turned on.

It was free!!! Had a great scenic experience. Would say the best time to go is just before sunset and when there aren't a lot of people (the more people...the more vibration)

Nice little place to visit. It’s a 15-20 minute walk up the path before you actually reach the metal walkway structure. It has a nice feel about the place and the views are great.

Simple yet unique and creative sculpture. Amazing integration of history and art. The views were amazing, especially during the sunset. It's definitely a must visit place with kids. There's a slope to reach there, and if you don't like walking around, there's a direct route as well, which is a sort of trek (2 mins). It's free of cost to visit. The nearest grocery store is around 1 km away. Best place to spend some quality time with oneself or with family and friends.

Enormous industrial complex that was changed into a free tourist zone. There are some events organized here, they were even getting ready for one, when I was there, so you would assume that's a perfect example of revitalization effort. Unfortunately that's not entirely true. Yes instead of a toxic plant there is a museum and a forest, however that is also all that's here. Some of the equipment was left under the sun on its own, getting rusty and overgrown, making it look quite sad. Most of the buildings are closed down and the guided tour shows just a fraction of them. There is also no possibility to go underground inside the coal mine, to explore its history. Thinking it was the biggest one is quite a shame. Overall even though the complex makes an amazing first expression the longer you walk through it the sadder it gets. Wasted potential...

My visit to the Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex was an absolutely magnificent experience. It is truly awe-inspiring to see how this former industrial behemoth has been masterfully repurposed into a vibrant cultural landscape, housing museums, exhibition centers, a university, and more. The vision required to preserve such a monumental piece of history while breathing new life into it is simply remarkable. ​The sprawling 100-hectare site has been ingeniously transformed into a verdant park, with fantastic cycling and walking paths weaving through the imposing structures. This unique blend of industrial heritage and natural beauty means you can have a wonderful visit just enjoying the park, even if history isn't your main interest. ​Zollverein truly offers a full day of exploration and enjoyment for the entire family. With delightful cafes, excellent restaurants, and even a casino on the grounds, it's impossible to feel a moment of boredom. ​I was unfortunately pressed for time and could only spend three hours there, which was barely enough to scratch the surface. I am already planning my next trip to fully immerse myself in everything this incredible place has to offer. ​A Special Tip: To truly grasp the immense scale of the complex, I wholeheartedly recommend exploring it by bike or taking one of the guided cart tours. It's an experience that is absolutely worth it!

So pleasantly surprised by this place, it is insta worth it on its own but don’t miss out on the Ruhr museum, worth getting the full ticket to see the special exhibits. Humongous place to see not only the story is the mines but the area, its people and work. Could easily spend there several hours and still not see everything. Pair with Red Dot design museum in the same complex!

Parking is free, and information offices offer maps of this former industrial area, which is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The map shows the locations of the various exhibitions and indicates a circular route that takes about an hour and a half to walk at a slow pace. On Sundays when I was there, tourist trains run in the site and there are also guided tours. The ticket offices display the prices of the different tickets. I paid €10 for the Ruhr Museum and the Portal der Industriekultur, which has a panoramic terrace. This coal mine, began operating in 1932. Together with the processing plant, it occupied an area of about 100 hectares. It closed in 1986 and began its transformation into a cultural center in 1990.

A beautiful place. A huge mine listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The area around the mine is vast and green, and there's even a small playground for children. There's ample parking for cars. There's a small café on the grounds where you can enjoy a coffee or snack while waiting to enter the mine. Prices are reasonable. I recommend visiting this architectural wonder.

Surprisingly wonderful repurposing of an industrial site as a cultural centre. The juxtaposition of the buildings and metalwork with reclaiming nature is striking, and we could have easily have spent hours more wandering around than we had the time for during our visit. Easy to dismiss at a glance on the internt but remarkably affecting in person. Very glad we stopped to see it.

This made for a fascinating few hours. It's all quiet now but you can imagine the noise, heat and dust when it was operating. It has been very skilfully transformed into a coal museum and there is a large area to wander around by the coking plant.

Impressive view from every corner of the stadium. The stands and seat are really close to the pitch and there's plenty of internal spot where to buy good and beverage

Went here to watch Dortmund’s Champions League game against Bilbao and it was such a nice experience. Not a Dortmund fan so I was a neutral coming there to just enjoy the experience. The building was pretty easy to access once you’re in it but it could get confusing when you’re not sure where to enter as there are north and south entrance. Clean toilet, good beer and nice atmosphere.

Great experience from start to finish! We explored the pitch, stands, players’ tunnel and locker rooms — an amazing behind-the-scenes look at one of Europe’s most iconic stadiums. The atmosphere, history and energy of Signal Iduna Park are truly something special. A must-visit for every football fan! 🟡⚫️

Im not really a fan of football, but the tour was actually so much fun! Even for someone who is not into football. I would definitely recommend to do the tour.

The home stadium of the BVB dortmund. They have a museum and fan shop near by and also plenty of parking But off the season there is no restaurant there.

Was really cool. Were able to go around the Stadium on our own and to the wardrobe and where the players enters the field.

Amazing stadium, amazing fans, as a visiting fan in a home section I felt safe and comfortable. The yellow wall is an awesome thing to experience. Songs sung by home fans at beginning and end is amazing...

Good place to relax and has good connectivity from the main station and got a lot of car parking and toilets.

The place was clean. A very peaceful environment. A very great pathway for jogging and walking.

Beautiful lake. There is facility of boating in the lake which costs around 10Euro. You can sit near the lake and see the ducks and other birds. Around the lake, one can go for walk or jogging.

Wonderful place to take long walks and just relax!

A very nice place to visit beautiful lake alongwith park and tracks

Hardly ten minutes on foot from Prinzipalmarkt, Aasee is a 40-hectare man-made lake beginning on cusp of the old town and continuing southwest for over two kilometres. The lakefront is cushioned by a broad band of inviting parkland, laid with lawns, trees and public art, and travelled by cyclists, joggers and strolling families. There are restaurants and cafes at regular intervals and a raised terrace in the modern complex on the north shore, where you can also hire a pedal boat for self-navigated trip around the lake. At this spot you’ll find the jetty for SOLAARIS, a solar-powered boat that ferries people from the city centre to the Allwetterzoo on the west shore.

Really awesome and beautiful lake. Worth a trip, either for a walk along the bank or to take a little boat and paddle along. We choose the latter, a bit tiring but really worth it!!

Bremen is a nice town. Interesting story around the musicians. Do not miss the church, the traditional stores including their famous chocolate, the candy making store, the narrowest street in germany as well as the manhole in the main square where you can listen to the animals for a coin. A great day trip place near Hamburg.

It cute, definitely a line to take photos of this statue. Wonderful little display in the town centre. Good to see. But it's just a statue.

Hello, I'm not the best storyteller and photographer, but if you're interested!! The city is beautiful and full of surprises. You just have to see the charm that Bremen can show and give. As one of!!! the most beautiful cities in Germany. I'm happy that I saw with my own eyes what you can see there. Yes, and a little bit of what I saw.

No visit to Bremen is complete without seeing the famous Town Musicians statue. This beloved bronze monument, depicting the donkey, dog, cat, and rooster from the Brothers Grimm fairytale, is as charming in person as you'd hope. It's become a wonderful tradition for visitors to make a wish while holding the donkey's front legs. You'll see the shiny, worn bronze from countless wishes made there. The statue is smaller than some expect. It's nestled in a perfect spot right next to the stunning Town Hall. Be prepared to wait a moment for your turn to take a photo, as it's deservedly one of the city's most popular attractions. A truly must see piece of art.

Bremen – A City of Character and Quiet Charm I found Bremen to be a city full of understated beauty. Its historic center, with landmarks like the Town Hall and the Roland statue, speaks to its rich past, while quiet streets and riverside paths offer a peaceful atmosphere. The Bremen Town Musicians statue adds a whimsical touch, especially for those who appreciate folklore. It’s not a loud or flashy destination, but if you enjoy history, culture, and a slower pace, Bremen is well worth a visit.

This is a must see statue depicting the most famous chapter of the story where the animal musicians scare away the robbers by creating a scary and noisy creature. It is best to (re-)read the short story first to get a better feel for the statue. We went before 8am and we were the only one there. It was peaceful and we had good morning light. We went later in the day as our traveling mascot, Pedals Puffin, wanted to see if he could join the musicians but alas he didn’t fit in the lineup. We had to wait in turn to get his photo opportunity.

As a Kurdish wanderer, the story of the Bremen Town Musicians resonates deeply with the spirit of our own people. Here you have these four animals – a donkey, a dog, a cat, and a rooster – each cast aside, deemed "useless" by their former masters, facing a bleak future of being discarded or worse. Yet, instead of succumbing to despair, they unite, their shared vulnerability forging an unbreakable bond. This journey to Bremen, a mythical land of freedom where they hope to become musicians, is not just a physical one; it's a profound act of defiance. They refuse to accept their assigned fate. Their strength lies not in individual power, but in their collective wit and their unique, cacophonous harmony – a sound that scares away the robbers and secures their new home. This mirrors the Kurdish experience so powerfully. For generations, Kurds have been displaced, denied their rights, and subjected to the harsh realities of occupation and attempted cultural erasure by various colonizing and occupying powers. Like the animals, many have been deemed "unwanted" or a "problem." Yet, in the face of such adversity, the Kurdish people have consistently shown an extraordinary resilience. Our resistance, much like the animals' loud and startling "music," hasn't always been about overwhelming force, but about unity, ingenuity, and an unwavering determination to survive and thrive. We, too, have formed alliances, often out of necessity, with those who share our dreams of self-determination. The vision of a free Kurdistan, a "Bremen" where our culture, language, and identity can flourish without threat, continues to drive us. The Bremen Town Musicians found their home not in the city they set out for, but in a place they claimed through collective action. This reminds me that for the Kurdish people, true liberation might not be a pre-ordained destination, but a space forged through our continued struggle, our unity, and our refusal to be silenced. Like those musicians, we continue to sing our song, a testament to our enduring spirit against all odds.

Fun little place to visit when you come to Germany. There are a variety of shops to check out, as well as places to grab a bite to eat. I would recommend you go early in the day to find nearby street parking.

It's a lovely place, made up of narrow streets and small shops. You can get lost in the narrow streets and find interesting shops along the way. It's a wonderful walking route. You can relax and soak up the atmosphere by sitting and sipping something in the surrounding cafes. It's a wonderful place.

We absolutely loved exploring the Schnoor district in Bremen. It's a truly enchanting and picturesque neighborhood that feels like you've stepped back in time. Wandering through the narrow, cobblestone lanes lined with tiny, historic houses is a magical experience. The area is filled with unique boutiques, artisan workshops, and cozy cafés, each housed in a building with its own character. The atmosphere is lively yet intimate, making it perfect for a leisurely stroll, shopping for unique souvenirs, or simply soaking in the fairytale-like ambiance. It's the heart and soul of old Bremen and an absolute must-see for any visitor. We highly recommend taking your time to explore every little alley.

If there was a German Harry Potter, then it would be filmed in Bremen. The Schnoor district is Bremen’s oldest and most charming neighborhood, with winding alleyways and beautifully preserved half-timbered houses dating back to the 15th–18th centuries. Worth visiting 🙌🏼

When you are in Bremen… definitely visit Schnoor. The area here is not so big but so cute with the little streets, restaurants and shops. Adorable! 🥰 So don’t skip this part of Bremen!!!!

A very beautiful place in the old part of city. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in Bremen. It feels like you've stepped into an old city from several centuries ago.

A really beautiful place to walk around, go enjoy the buildings and contribute to local businesses. Great way to spend an afternoon.

The height of this statue is really impressive. You can see the statue from afar, but you don't realise how huge it is. It's really impressive when walking around it. There is also a nice viewpoint nearby. There are lots of hiking routes around the statue, just follow the signs. There's also an option to buy tickets so you can get inside, but you're not nearly halfway up. If it's worth it, I don't know.

good place for walking and relaxing. Nearby there is paid parking, but if you go down 200 meters, then there is free parking. entrance to the territory is free, but climbing to the observation deck is already a fee.

A very nice monument to visit, very scenic!

Nice location on the top of a hill. Well directed from the city. Parking is at 4€, if you want to go up the monument you need to pay additionally. Area might be crowded during weekends. There is a kiosk and a restaurant, toilets and a climbing park in the trees. There is also an open air stage.

Great views, lovely park around it too

Well connected by the public transport and a bus takes you the stop near to this Denkmal. 1 to 2 hours are sufficient to explore the area, capture the surroundings and get to the top of the Denkmal even on a weekend

If you want to go up there is a ticket for 4€ but if you want to visit extersteine and hike up, you can buy a combi ticket for 6€. Seems like a long walk up the statue. The views are so amazing thinking back in the day it was where arminius and barbarians ambushed the roman legions. Worth the visit!

I haven't been here in years. We arrived right when it opened and stayed until closing time. I was looking forward to coming here, and I was not disappointed. We had such a great time! The weather was mixed, which was good, as it meant that the crowds were not that large and the wait times were reduced. I went on every rollercoaster, and some even several times. The food was pretty good, too. I bought a few souvenirs and I must say the prices are really not that bad compared to other theme parks I have been to. I was still smiling the next day! I highly recommend a visit! I can't wait to come back! Next time, we'll stay the night.

Great experience. Great day to be here. Not too many people as school has started and summer holidays are mostly over. Wait time was between 10 and 60 minutes. Only note is that some queues were not covered which meant in sunny weather it could get quite hot. The thrill roller-coasters were amazing. The only roller-coaster I would NOT recommend is the double-loop one. Headache machine.

It is a great place to spend with the family. We visited the amusement park in the middle of the week. It was great to see it is not crowed and waiting times were between 10 to max 30min for the main attractions. It makes it really enjoyable not like other parks with super long waiting time and too many people that you hardly can breath. The restaurants inside offer various dishes and the quality was good, a bit pricey though which is normal in such a park. The only thing, some of the staff or instructor at some attractions were not really friendly. They might forgot where they work. The access to the park by car from Hamburg less than an hour was very fine. The parking space very well available. The access by public transport is a bit long though. It is a recommended place to visit. There are entertainment available for almost all ages.

It was a really quiet day when we were there so easy to get on any ride we wanted. Everything seemed in good working order although it needed a bit of freshening up after the summer season (we were there in late September). The were still plenty of options for eating and things were reasonably priced (for a theme park!). The ride staff were great and interacted with our children well (our children don’t speak German). Because it was quieter, they allowed us and others to just keep riding those rides without a line. A good day and a good experience. The only problem we had was getting into the correct carpark!

I've been to the Heide Park twice now and I can only recommend it!! Yes, it is kinda expensive but isn't every adventure park? Heide Park has a lot of different rollercoasters, which are all really exciting!! You also have a big wheel 🎡 !! Something that I think is really cool is the fact that the Heide Park has different "scenes". You walk through different worlds and it's truly fascinating!! It's a relly cool place to visit! ^^

Cool park with thematic atmosphere. 5 stars The rides are more geared towards younger people. The rides are really cool. A great place to spend time with the family.

We came from far away especially for this park, as we had promised our little daughter. We had been here before, and she really enjoyed it and wanted to return. We entered the park, and immediately a heavy downpour began. We went into the shop at the entrance and waited for an hour. The rain didn’t stop. We approached customer service and asked to postpone our tickets to the following day — our request was denied. We waited another hour and tried, for our daughter’s sake, to continue through the park. We were soaked to the bone, and all the rides were closed. There was absolutely no way to fulfill our promise to her. Apart from walking around in the rain, there was nothing to do! I contacted customer service by email, hoping they would show some flexibility and let us enter on another day. But no — that's their policy, with no exceptions. After about two hours, with no sign of the rain stopping, we simply left. The disappointment for our daughter — and for us — was indescribable. It’s truly a shame that this is how children are treated. We, the parents, pay full admission just so the kids can have fun, and the park didn’t even take this small step to accommodate us by allowing a replacement visit. What a pity!

Beautiful building, inside and out. In the ground floor hall, there are fascinating models of the city from the past and current times. The views from the top of the building are stunning. We had to wait a while as it is so popular, but it was worth the wait.

Grand traditional town hall building and landmark, still in use for the local mayoral offices. You can enter for free since its public government, you'll only need to pay for the special elevator ride to the tower platform that's boasting a great aerial view over the whole city of Hanover and surrounding area. The elevator is special since it's following the somewhat crookedly-built silhouette of the old building. It was designed like that instead of destroying big historical sections of the edifice internally.

It’s a wealthy building.. Wealthy architecture…. Great elevation, huge front area for celebrations, events. And moving and walking path all four sides. The rear side facing a small and cute pond.

Such a gorgeous place! The building looks amazing, and the park around it is perfect for a walk, picnic, or just chilling by the water. It’s one of those spots where you instantly feel relaxed, peaceful, pretty, and full of charm. Great place to spend time with friends or family!

A beautiful town hall with a wealth of ornamentation. A historical marvel that impresses visitors. We haven't been inside yet, but from the outside it truly is a massive structure. A lakeside location adds lovely atmosphere

My Hannover trip is short but really good for me. I took some really god pictures and videos but my favorite place definitely this place. From the top you can see all city btw

Amazing place that everyone should visit when visiting Hannover. A lot of history that can be found here and you’ll get a chance seeing Hannover from the top!

Pretty good. But seeing someone smoking in the kids playground was shocking to me. Really good work with the themed atmosphere and building structures. Animals hiding in the shade but most still visible.

My first time here and I absolutely loved it. I honestly didn’t expect much from a zoo in Germany, but this one went far beyond my expectations. It feels more like an amusement park somehow! The boat ride is my favorite part, since some of the animals can be seen better from the boat. And don’t miss the zoo shop. They have so many cute merch items. Definitely one of the best zoos I’ve ever been to.

All the animals looked so happy! The enclosures are just so amazing! Really good job making them themed after the area you’d find the animals in the wild, which just made it look so natural and made it look so that the animals were at home! Not seen anything like this before! The entry fee is at the higher end but it’s so worth it! Loved all of it!

15 out of 10 for theming, one of my favorite in the world! Beautiful areas and though they’re building new areas, spaces are original, more like a theme park and according to the animals. Loved the Yukon! Easy to navigate but plenty of signage, maps and ways to find your way. Worth a visit!

A beautifully themed zoo. Great for spending the whole day with the family. There are several places inside the zoo where you can eat well.

Nice zoo with different well-executed themed areas and a free boat ride around the park.

Very beautiful zoo and specially great for dogs. Variety of animals and shows going throughout the day! Worth a visit!

I took the train/ mine option and greatly enjoyed the ride and temperature change (it was hot outside). Although the tour was in German I was able to infer as it is a very visual and interactive tour. The tour guide was really good. Hard to believe what these workers had to go through to earn a living. Free parking nearby. Great tour,

An amazing experience I would highly recommend! It's rare to get to walk in the shoes and take the same mine train the miners took back in the day, deep into the depths of this mine and UNESCO World Heritage site. The rest of the museum and exhibitions are also interesting but the mine rail tour is a must!

Exiting tour of the mines. Good museum part, but unfortunately most of it is in German.

Very impressive! It was for me the first time to visit a mine like this, it feels you go back in time! The groups weren't that big, so you could see a lot of the mine. It was quite cold, so wear warm clothes. The train underground was an amazing experience!

Very deceiving for such an emblematic place. It is still a quite impressive place full of history which is nice to see. I expected more... First of all, there is no tour in English. For a UNESCO world heritage site, you will expect at least one tour in English. For the museum part, it is interesting but everything is disorganised and it is not appealing. Some parts are only in German. I hope one day, this place would be made more accessible for non-german speakers.

Recommend booking in advance for English tours.

I recently visited the Rammelsberg Ore Mines with my husband and had an incredible experience. We took the guided tour in English, called the Röder Stollen, led by Mr. Christian Etzrodt. He was super friendly and humorous, making the entire journey interesting and engaging. I really appreciate him going out of the way to add fun to the tour. It was an amazing and adventurous experience, and I highly recommend his tour. The reception staff were also very friendly and helpful (she helped us choose the appropriate tour), as was the lovely lady at the shop. Overall, it was a fantastic visit! We really enjoyed the experience. Oh, yes! Make sure to wear appropriate clothing and shoes. You would need to walk a lot and climb steep steps. Would not recommend this tour to people with claustrophobia, nyctophobia, panic disorder, breathing issues, pregnancy, etc. It is colder and dark and might be a bit slippery. P.S. I personally give bonus points for the "Stimmungsring" at the shop, haha

If you are into cars and the automotive industry then this place is for you, it has a good playground for the little ones and for food you have restaurants and a bakery. It’s near the railway station and they have a huge parking lot that doesn’t cost that much. It’s worth the visit though you’ll a good chunk of the day to cover everything.

If it is your first time you will love it. The car museum is so nice If it is your second time it is the same. I have been here in 2018 and only things that changed were the sliders for the kids/adukts near the 4 chimney and of course there are new car models but... not so much change. You pay 20€ to see the cars and touch the production ones like in a regular car store.

Museum had a good range of cars from many manufacturers. The train tour around the factory was fantastic very immersive with a lot of information and interesting detail. The team were very accommodating we had been stuck in traffic so had missed the English speaking tour however, they went out of there way to give us an English spoken tour of the factor of the factory separate to the scheduled German tour. Many thanks to the team for a great experience 👍🏻

Nice place for weekend day trip. The car museum, car towers and VW experience center are great. Other places are just fine. Has some good kid friendly places as well.

Visiting the Autostadt in Wolfsburg was such a great experience! The whole place is beautifully designed, clean, and very well organized. From the impressive car pavilions to the museum and the factory view, everything showcases the history and future of Volkswagen in a fun and interactive way. I especially enjoyed the variety of exhibitions and how much attention to detail there is throughout the park. Definitely worth visiting if you’re a car enthusiast or just want a unique cultural experience in Germany!

It's an interesting nad knowledge base learning tour not only VW but other car manufacturers, Tour and Tower & VW Factory tour worth attention and a visit. Lovely architecture building bauhaus design.

Great place to explore the VW group's heritage and design Great restaurants too, do try the VW currywurst, as well as amazing desserts

Beautiful castle with spectacular views of Wernigerode and Harz mountains. Very busy during my visit & somewhat disorganized. Could only find paid parking nearby with additional expense for a shuttle bus. However, there are several shuttle bus companies and you can't tell which is which until the driver kicks you off. But, still a nice place to visit.

Beautiful beautiful castle! Absolutely worth the visit. It has such a special atmosphere. There’s not much to see inside, but the view of the city from the top and inside courtyard are stunning. We were there on Sunday, end September, and there was no line.

Not allowed to take pictures inside, so I cannot post inside pics here. But it is incredible! The most beautiful woodwork, stunning small church, great to have a local beer in the courtyard. Worth the visit!!

A must-visit when you're in Wernigerode! Wernigerode Castle is straight out of a fairytale — perched on a hill with breathtaking views over the charming town and the Harz mountains. The architecture is stunning, and the atmosphere feels like stepping into another century. Now, let me say this loud and clear: take the uphill walk to the castle if you can! Sure, there are shuttle buses and other ways to get there, but where’s the adventure in that? 😄 Brace your leg muscles and lungs — the incline is real! 🥵 But trust me, it’s the most rewarding option. It adds a touch of effort, a dash of cardio, and a full dose of “I earned this view!” Once you reach the top, all the huffing and puffing pays off. The castle is beautiful, the views are spectacular, and the photo ops are endless. Whether you're into history, architecture, or just soaking in amazing scenery — this place has it all. Pro tip: Go early or late in the day to avoid crowds and heat. Bring water, good shoes, and a bit of adventurous spirit!

Worth the walk uphill. Go early to beat the crowds. Enjoy a beer at the cafe inside. It’s a lot quieter than the one outside. On the walk down I took a detour on some of the paths. Very green and beautiful woods.

Nice views. Cafe is busy and a bit expensive. Shop is a treasure trove of second hand bits. Very dangerous approach to drive JCB diggers at speed through the site - see photo.

I would give it more stars if I could. Definitely the most beautiful castle I have visited. It's like you're back in the middle ages. And so many nice details!

Entrance free into the city. It's a Lovely area to have a walk. There are restaurants also available with nice food. Some places were under construction and soon will be opened. It's better going there before 4.pm. the museum closing time is 4

The old town is dominated by the castle and church on the hill. The district is perfect for strolling through half-timbered houses and winding lanes. From the castle grounds there are views over the jumble of roofs and spires of Quedlinburg as well as the surrounding countryside and towards the Harz.

Nice town and architecture. Recommend!

(Translated by Google) Beautiful Harz town of Quedlinburg with half-timbered houses and a historic history. Nice people who are easy to get in touch with. It's worth living here! (Original) Schöne Harzstadt Quedlinburg mit Fachwerkhäusern und einer historischen Geschichte. Nette Menschen mit denen mal leicht in Kontakt kommt. Hier ist es Lebenswert !

(Translated by Google) A huge old town. You rarely find something like that. One cafe and restaurant after another, all busy despite the time of year! (Original) Eine riesige Altstadt. Sowas findet man selten. Ein Cafe und Restaurant nach dem anderen und alle trotz dieser Jahreszeit gut besucht!

(Translated by Google) World cultural heritage... and rightly so. This number of old half-timbered houses... surprising and inspiring. You quickly get the feeling that time has been turned back. Since there are fairy lights hanging in the alleys everywhere in the city, it must be really great in the evenings. Full recommendation for a visit. (Original) Weltkulturerbe.... und das zu Recht. Diese Anzahl an alten Fachwerkhäusern... überraschend und begeisternd. Man bekommt schnell ein Gefühl, als sei die Zeit zurückgedreht. Da in der Stadt überall Lichterketten in den Gassen hängen, muss es abends auch sehr toll sein. Volle Empfehlung für einen Besuch.

(Translated by Google) The old town ensures that Quedlinburg is rightfully a World Heritage Site. One half-timbered house follows the next, and at times, you truly feel like you're walking through the Middle Ages. Many alleyways are tucked away with small shops, restaurants, and pubs. Depending on the time of year, it's naturally very busy, but the old town is absolutely worth a visit. The climb to the castle hill is also worthwhile, as it offers a magnificent view of the old town. (Original) Die Altstadt sorgt dafür, dass Quedlinburg zurecht Welterbe ist. Ein Fachwerkhaus jagt das andere, man hat wirklich teils das Gefühl, man würde durchs Mittelalter wandeln. In vielen Gassen verstecken sich kleine Geschäfte, Restaurants und Kneipen. Es sind natürlich je nach Jahreszeit sehr viele Leute unterwegs, aber die Altstadt ist einen Besuch absolut wert. Auch der Aufstieg auf den Burgberg lohnt sich, weil man hier einen herrlichen Ausblick auf die Altstadt hat.

It was great experience. For a moment one can feel the style and routine of old time

Interesting place from history. Very big and give many interesting information inside. In 2026 , they will close for the renovation so when you have a chance. Try it :) ticket costs 13 Euro in 2025

The Goethe museum costs pp € 13 pp. The Wohnung was to us the most interesting part. The other part of the museum contains many objects owned by Goethe among which several portraits. That part of the museum is definitely interesting but also has a somewhat hagiographic nature.

I really enjoyed this experience, especially having the app to lead you through the house was amazing. Genius to have it play when you hold your phone up to your ear! Also, the backyard was extremely beautiful and it really made you feel like you walked in the same house as Goethe, it was beautiful.

Goethe's House, or Goethes Wohnhaus, is a captivating museum that offers an in-depth look into the life of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. The museum provides comprehensive insights into Goethe's personal and professional life, with well-curated exhibits that include original manuscripts, personal belongings, and detailed descriptions of his contributions to literature and science. The historical ambiance of the house, combined with the extensive information provided, makes it an enriching experience for visitors. It's a must-visit for anyone interested in German literature and the life of one of its most influential figures.

Very interesting life and he had a big house with many different rooms with specific purposes. Take the audioguide for sure, which is included in the ticket price. 1:30 to 3:00 to complete it depending how fast you go.

Amazing insights into the life of Goethe. Such a beautiful and inspiring space. Well presented and updated with video installations and the incredible wealth of the attached museum.

This Is the most amazing zoo I've ever been to. It's so big with the kids. We could only see a portion of it, but the jungle experience especially with the boat ride was so cool. All of the exhibits are wonderful. I would highly recommend to anyone to visit the zoo. Easily one of the best zoos in the world.

Beautiful zoo with a rich variety of animals and habitats! Especially Gondwanaland was amazing giving you the feeling of actually being in the jungle!( don’t forget to get on the little boat trip, super cheap and worth the experience). Love, Greece!!!🇬🇷❤️

Leipzig Zoo is one of the best zoos I‘ve ever visited. Large enclosures. Many events throughout the day. Amazing infrastructure (you can find maps, sign posts, and directions for a tour that leads you through the entire zoo everywhere). They also don’t solely focus on the animals as mere entertainment but seek to inform kids in playful ways about preservation/biology/even physics in the aquarium. Leipzig Zoo also provides a variety of restaurants and snack bars that are evenly distributed across the entire Zoo. I wholly recommend visiting, whether alone or with friends and family. It’s an amazing and informative experience!

Best zoo in Germany especially with huge greenhouse of tropical forest and self moving boats along river with warm climate. Highly recommended for both adults and children alike

This zoo park was fantastic. I would recommend this to everyone. There is so much to see and you should have water with you because food and water prices there is too expensive. WC is free which is very good. And I suggest you guys to go early there, zoo opens at 9 am and closes at 7pm. As I mentioned earlier there is lot to see so you probably will need some rest. And one good thing about this zoo park is that you see animals without any borders and it is kind of crazy but it is safe. So enjoy with your trip everyone.

Zoo Leipzig is a great place to visit with kids. The grounds are very clean with almost no smell, and there are nice play and climbing facilities for children. A fun and family-friendly zoo experience!

This zoo is arguably the best in Europe. The animals have the freedom to roam, creating a more natural environment, and plenty of dining options are available. Don’t miss the chance to watch the monkeys and explore Gondwanaland. It's truly a fantastic spot for some quality time with your children.

Biggest train stations in Europe lots of stores and restaurants to choose from that are mostly all good plus a lot of railways definitely a place to visit for tourists from Germany or other countries.

Good street food restaurants ,a nice place to pause in between travels !

The largest in Europe.. 😍 Best train station I have been! 👌 With multiple railways and connecting Trips to offer.. A Subway can also be found in this big trainstation... And no worry for having a long connecting Trips, a mall is also within the Station. Various Restaurants and Shops available..

So far the nicest Bahnhof I've seen in Germany, always busy with people passing through and people just coming to shop. As it houses so many great stores to shop in over 3 levels with so many things to see and amazing food options. You can't come to leipzig without seeing it as it is the main train station. Even made more lovely around Christmas or as they say Weinachten, as lots more food stalls open up.

This station is very big, but it is really easy to find the way. Electronic devices such as ticket machines, th e screens are well thought and useful

Super convenient, many shops. The architecture is very impressive too. At the same time, it's noisy, it's crowded. Well, it's a railway station after all.

Beautiful Christmas decorations inside of the building, which adds up to the uniqueness of the historical building.

At the entrance, a welcoming entrance with an airy crypt with heating. On the first floor there was a film that explains the entire history from the origins in the early 1800s to the present day. Viewing is recommended. Then you climb up to the first internal cornice, which is very overhanging. You then climb to the upper floors, and then you reach the first external cornice located under the feet of the statues that can be seen from outside. You can take the elevator up to that level. From there, you climb to the highest part of the building with a very narrow but well-made stone staircase. A visit is recommended to better understand the history of the city. Full adult ticket price €12

A stunning monument that witnessed through its history empires, kingdoms and republics coming and going…. A must see by everyone who loves history! Fabulous views to the city as well as relaxing beautiful park!

Great experience with a rich history. I chose a non audio self tour and would highly recommend this. It's a place of reflection and would rather go undisturbed. The staircase to the top is steep though. Just so you know 😉

If you had only one thing to do in Leipzig, please visit this place. This monument is the tallest in all of Europe and it commemorates the war that broke Napoleon. No tickets required

This intense and impressive monument is a MUST SEE if you are in Leipzig. The scale is stunning and is reminiscent of the Mines of Moria in Lord of the Rings. There are multiple lifts but if you want to get to the top viewing area, you have to use the stairs and it is a little walk. No bad, but most people emerged a little winded and sweaty. The sweeping views of Leipzig are great and, if you go on a sunny day, you can see many miles/kilometers in every direction. Highly recommended.

A really impressive monument. It really makes you feel the enormity of the event being memorialized much like the World War I monument in Kansas City. There was a feeling of heaviness about the monument and it made me feel retrospective. A very nice visit. A stroll through the cemetery nextdoor is also warranted.

the monument to the battle of the nations in leipzig is a massive, seriously impressive monument commemorating napoleon's defeat in the 1813 battle. it's one of europe's largest, and you can climb to the top for panoramic views of leipzig. inside, the huge stone figures are really powerful. it's a bit outside the city center but easily reached by tram and definitely worth a visit for its history and scale

Beautiful and historical place. Great exebition and the view from the tower is amazing. Just 295 steps and you're there!

A beautiful church, and the resting place of Martin Luther. Very interesting to see the doors where Luther nailed the 95 theses and set the reformation in motion.

What a cool piece of history. It was good to walk and see where Protestant history was made. It was also a surprise to us at how cool the town is! You can definitely spend the day going into shops and eating at restaurants.

This is the church where Martin Luther placed his 95 theses on the doors of the church that started the reformation.

Visiting this place is definitely a must! Located at the end of the main street of the historical area of Wittenberg, this place is of extreme value not only because at one of his doors Martin Luther nailed his 95 thesis, but also because his grave is inside the temple, at the back, under the organ pipes. The entrance is free. Take your time to admire every single detail of this treasure building in terms of architecture. Highly recommend. Ask for a guided tour, it will broaden your experience! Also, you can go up in the tower for 3 €, where you will have great views of the city.

This church is famous as the place where Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses in 1517, sparking the Protestant Reformation. Luther's translation of the Bible into German in Wittenberg strengthened standard German and influenced German literacy and culture. This church became a symbol of resistance against the authority of the Roman Catholic Church and received support from German princes, strengthening Lutheranism as a political force.

Absolutely fascinating. Excellent museum to be found attached to the church, with some of the best audio visual demonstrations I have seen, by that I mean they are easy to use and in several different languages and capable of being tailored to suit the user (eg magnified if you don't have your glasses :-) ). The Tower is well worth the climb with magnificent views over the city and surrounding countryside. Martin Luther's grave is in this church and this is the church he nailed his famous theses to.

If you are in Meissen, you need to visit this museum. They have huge collection and you will be amazed with the giant porcelain pieces. Tour was also fun, you go to different rooms to learn about modeling, sculpting, painting etc. We spent good two good hours there.

Meissen and porcelain are like synonyms. So why not visit nice Meißen porcelain museum. If you want to know more, there are guided tours. More information, it all depends what you want. Museum can visit without guide. And of course is there shop, from where you can buy to yorself beautiful porcelain products. Near the factory is parking area.

The presentation is a little bit lacking, but otherwise is ok and the museum is amazing. The porcelains came from very different periods and this is why so beauty the collection. Good work for presentation and the kahle is the best.

The Meissen porcelain manufactory is a very interesting place for those who love beautiful tableware, beautiful trinkets and are interested in crafts. You can go to the store and the museum at any time when the manufactory is open. But I strongly recommend purchasing tickets with a demonstration of the production process; it is better to buy them in advance for a tour in a language suitable for you. However, there is an English audioguide, it allows you to take advantage of the German excursion. I advise to visit a local cafe, where you will have the opportunity to dine on original Meissen porcelain. As a compliment we get there especial cookies with manufacture symbol.

Every time I come here I get ammazed what a beauty lies in the porcelain. Never get tired of this, though the entrance fee is not a cheapest one (EUR 10,-/p.p.)

Perfect place for people who have too much money on the account :) Large collection of porcelain and the tour explaining the process of making porcelain is definitely worth visiting.

Jaw dropping, beautiful. The tour showing you how they make and decorate the pottery if fascinating

Magnificent Baroque palace, initially build by August Strong as a an orangery and gardens, destroyed by the ally bombings in 1945, restored in 50s and 60s . You can walk on the roof of the galleries and admire the beauty of it. It's open till late evening and the entrance is free.The inner garden part is currently ( as of August 2025) under renovation. The galleries house 2 museums - one of mathematical instruments and another is porcelain gallery ( which I highly recommend). When we were there in one of the towers a classical music concert was held. It was beautiful to listen to music in a such beautiful place.

I visited the Zwinger in Dresden and really enjoyed the experience. There is a lot to see here, and the place itself feels quite special. The architecture is impressive and honestly a bit overwhelming – you can just stand there and keep looking at all the details. Every corner has something interesting, from the buildings themselves to the sculptures and the way everything is arranged. It was a bit crowded when I visited, but that didn’t really stop me from enjoying it. You still have plenty of space to walk around and take your time. I found myself slowing down just to notice the small details, and it was worth it. Overall, I think it’s one of those places you shouldn’t miss if you’re in Dresden. It’s not only about seeing a landmark, but also about the feeling of being surrounded by such a unique piece of history and design.

This is an absolute must-see in Dresden. There’s no need to explain why — just go. The palace offers much more to see than you might expect, so make sure to allow plenty of time for your visit. It’s truly worth the admission fee. The art museum was particularly impressive !

Dresden Zwinger is an absolutely beautiful place—one of those spots where you instantly feel like you’ve stepped into another century. The architecture is breathtaking, with elegant palace buildings, detailed façades and peaceful courtyards that make the whole complex feel almost magical. It’s the kind of place where you can just stroll around, soak in the atmosphere, admire the gardens, and truly appreciate the history and beauty of Dresden. A must-see when visiting the city.

What a beautiful palace. Baroque at its best. Apparently nearly completely destroyed during world War 2 it now shines once more. Different exhibitions at the 4 wings with porcelain, old master and physics. Close to all the downtown historic buildings. In walking distance to the Frauenkirche. A definite must see.

We walked here to do something. It was pretty. We went across the street to rooftop bar pretty good view and sunset was pretty.

The Zwinger in Dresden is one of the city’s most stunning Baroque landmarks. Its elegant courtyards and ornate pavilions make it perfect for walking around and taking photos. The Old Masters Gallery, home to the “Sistine Madonna,” is a highlight, along with impressive porcelain and scientific collections. The site is well-kept, atmospheric, and beautiful both day and night. A visit truly feels worthwhile.

The Fürstenzug took me by surprise—so detailed and grand, yet tucked along a quiet street. From my perspective, it’s one of those places that really brings history to life. The scale and craftsmanship of the porcelain mural are incredible, and it’s amazing how well it’s been preserved. It’s definitely worth pausing here while exploring the old town—it doesn’t take long, but it leaves a lasting impression.

the procession of princes is enormous 102-meter-long porcelain mural that basically tells the history of saxony. it features 94 figures of all the saxon rulers and nobles in chronological order, starting way back in 1127. what's really cool is that it's made from an incredible 25,000 meissen porcelain tiles, which makes it the world's largest porcelain artwork. you'll find it right on augustusstraße, so it's super easy to check out as you're walking between dresden's main attractions. and the best part? you can view it completely free

What an excellent and exquisite display of porcelain art. I believe the art shows a march of the Saxon ruler dynasty and is the larger porcelain mural in the world. When you come upon the wall, the sheer size of it is jaw dropping. You won’t be able to believe what you are seeing. It is beautiful. This is a must see sight when you visit Dresden.

We visited the Fürstenzug in December 2024 during the Christmas market, and we were truly impressed. Hahhh, what can I say or express? It was an incredible experience to stand in front of this massive wall of history. This open-air artwork is both grand and full of detail, yet located on a quiet street in Dresden’s historic center. * Stretching 102 meters long, the mural is made of over 23,000 Meissen porcelain tiles and portrays the genealogy of the Wettin dynasty, which ruled Saxony for centuries. It’s considered the largest porcelain mural in the world. Originally painted between 1871 and 1876, it was later replaced with porcelain tiles from 1904 to 1907 to withstand the weather. In addition to princes, kings, and dukes, the mural also features scientists, craftsmen, farmers, and even children — which gives the artwork a more human and timeless feel. It’s a true open-air history lesson. The visit is free, quick, and unforgettable. Definitely worth stopping by while exploring the Old Town. And afterward, take a break at one of the lovely nearby cafés! I Recommend it.

Once I arrived in Dresden, I had to take the latest available train to see this. It’s more than I expected. On weekends, this alley can get a little crowded, so you might have to wait a while to get a good picture. :)

Wonderful historic place in the Alt stadt dresden! Indeed its a very beautiful architecture and painting

This beautiful and historic mural, which we explored during a walking tour, runs along the Oberlandesgericht (Higher Regional Court) building. The intricate artwork, done in the style of sgraffito, is impressive and worth pausing to admire. The mural tells the story of Saxony’s history, making it both visually and historically captivating. It’s free to view, and you could spend 15-20 minutes here as part of a walking tour of Dresden’s historic centre.

We visited as it’s our last day, it’s pretty impressive how much money, time, and effort to rebuild all these historic buildings, including this Church of our Lady. Inside still haven’t had much to see but still nice to visit. Free entry but if you wish to climb up to the viewing tower over 100 steps then have a fee.

This is a beautiful church that is the jewel of Dresden. I loved visiting the church as well as sitting outside in one of the many cafes and restaurants and taking in the view. Church entrance is free. It’s gorgeous inside. If you want to climb up the dome, you need to go around the back. I think it was €12 entrance. The views are great from the top. There are a good few steps going up to start and then there is a ramp around the dome which makes it far easier to ascend.

Brilliant history! In the final days of WWII, the whole city was bombed including this church which was a very important part of Dresden. Following the reunification of German, it was rebuilt using some of the original stone! The building is incredible and there is a stunning view from the top. A must visit!

Frauenkirche Dresden, A symbol of peace and rebirth. Destroyed during World War II and rebuilt from its original stones, the Church of Our Lady stands today as a powerful reminder of faith, resilience, and hope. Its magnificent dome shines once again over the heart of Dresden

It's free to walk into the main part of the church where you can see the beautiful interior, and 10€ per person to climb to the top of the church. The stairs are pretty easy most of the way up, and up until after you finish walking up a big sloped ramp near the end you must also get up some VERY steep and skinny stairs (so beware, if you're a claustrophobe or don't like heights). But the view of Dresden is so worth it if you do it.

The magnificent Frauenkirche! When I last visited decades ago, the church was nothing but a pile of rubble—or more accurately, a heap of stones—serving as a stark reminder of the devastation of war. Reconstruction began in 1994, and on October 30, 2005, it was officially reopened. The church hall is impressively tall and richly decorated. You can climb up to the dome, but we didn’t have time for that on this visit. I’m sure the views from up there—both into the church and across Dresden—are breathtaking. If you only have time to visit one attraction in Dresden, I’d choose the Frauenkirche.

We came for a Mozart concert. It was fabulous. This rebuild baroque church is bright and beautifully grand. It holds around 3000 guests and is decorated with much gold and adornments.The seats were comfortable not like other old churches.it was warm and without drafts.

Really sad to get to know the past and how was life or surviving in a place like this, the entrance was about 10€ per person, there are toilets for free inside, don't miss the cinema, it shows a movie of about 20 minutes where you can get most of the information and history for free as well and it was translated in English.

If you’re planning a visit to the Terezín Memorial, I highly recommend making an online reservation in advance. While there are a few basic informational signs scattered around the site, most of the historical context and stories require a guided explanation to truly understand the significance of what you're seeing. The admission ticket includes a guided tour, but you must book it online beforehand through their official website. Several language options are available, making it accessible for international visitors. There is a small kiosk within the site that offers vending machines, and the town has a few grocery stores. However, it’s a good idea to bring your own light meal and drinking water for the visit, as options on-site are limited. Also, make sure to set aside time to visit the other museums in town. The ticket to the concentration camp also grants you access to several important museums in the town of Terezín, and they are absolutely worth seeing. These museums provide essential context and help paint a fuller picture of the site's history.

My nephew as me about Auschwitz when we were in Germany so we drove there the following week. As I read on the Internet that we need to reserve as we won’t get in, that was false, the free entrance are limited and need to be reserved but the tour in your language happens every couple hours or so and with many language, of it is 70€ but to really get the feeling and understanding of the place, I think you need the guided tour. Our guide was not that enthusiastic but I guess this is in their mantra. Her English was good for conversation but maybe a bit lacking for this kind of guiding but this did not bother the group I was in. For some reason I was expecting more from what everyone I know who have been there where telling me about the feeling and all but maybe I just been to too many of similar place when I was in the military… definitely recommend to go there with your younger members of the family so that we never forget and don’t let the Israelis repeat the same thing now with the Palestinians

A must visit, worth the day trip from Prague. We booked the tour online in advance but they didn’t even check the reservation. The guided tour was nice, if you don’t do it I’m not sure how you’d get information on the buildings as there is very little signage. They do run 4 or 5 tours at the same time, just in different languages. This means it’s quite crowded. It would be better if they staggered the times. They offer tours in many languages, and your entrance ticket here works in numerous other sights throughout the town as well.

A very well preserved exhibit. Definitely recommend getting a tour

Events that happened here shouldn't be forgotten. I appreciate how places like these remind us to never let these things happen again. Although, Theresienstadt wasn't really an extermination camp it reminds us of how much suffering humans can inflict on one another.

A must visit so that the horrors of the Holocaust are not forgotten

Great place to hiking, on website was mentioned that all roads are expert, but as I feel you can go even with kids. One minus, if you want to sit on the top in restaurant you need to pay for entrance, I think it strange decision , as you will pay for food and drinks. Queue for tickets in weekend 15-25 min

In a stunning location amazing place for those who like hiking. It is quite steep in places but the path is beautifully done so everyone can do it. The hike took about 1.5 hours to get to the most incredible natural arch I have ever seen and it is worth to get exhausted on the way. The award on the top is fantastic, lovely restaurant and magnificent views. Access to the final part is restricted by times so it is worth to check out before trip to avoid disappointment and also you have to pay for it but cost is not expensive. Car park available on the bottom in the nearest town.

Truly amazing natural formation. The walk is a bit far from the bottom but manageable. Bring comfortable shoes, open toe are not recommended, there's a lot of loose gravel, sand, and boulders. Once at the top the cost at the main door is 125 kc, but online you can pay 50 kc. Definitely recommended. Walk along the outside edge of the archway and get some great pictures.

We had an extremely interesting hiking experience, saw incredible landscapes and beauties. You have to see it with your own eyes. Parking for a car costs 12 euros. It takes from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours to climb up, depending on your physical condition. Entrance to the most interesting places on the mountain costs 5 euros. The road from Prague by car is about 2 hours. Interesting, beautiful, you will not regret it

Well… even just being here means surrendering yourself to the genius loci of this world-class natural wonder! So close one eye a little.. enjoy your refreshment in this rather simple buffet.. and don’t be surprised by the crowds. What truly matters is the wooden chateau itself.. magnificent building that literally breathes history.

We visited this stunning site during the Easter holidays, and while it was quite crowded, the experience was absolutely worth it. The hike begins at Hřensko, with a well-marked trail leading you upward. There’s ample parking available at the base, but it fills up quickly—so it's best to arrive early. The trail is fairly steep in places, so wearing proper hiking shoes and carrying enough water is highly recommended, especially if you're visiting on a warm day. Once you reach the top, there’s a small entrance fee. At the summit, you will find a cafe, a kiosk, clean restrooms and an information center where you can purchase souvenirs. Note that the kiosk and souvenir shop accept cash only, so be sure to bring some with you. The panoramic views from the top are absolutely breathtaking - perfect for taking a break and soaking in the scenery.

Pravčická Gate, located in Bohemian Switzerland National Park, is the largest natural sandstone arch in Europe and a true geological wonder. The hike to reach it is scenic and well-marked, starting typically from the village of Hřensko (Paid parking, in high season there may not be enough spaces). The site can get crowded in peak season, and there's a small entrance fee. Easy route, for people of all ages.
