Lovely spot to spent some time

(Translated by Google) A beautiful open-air museum. Many mills in their original size on a large open-air area. Almost all of the mills are accessible. Very impressive collection and very well maintained facility. The area is large with lots of information boards. Worth seeing and can only recommend a visit. (Original) Ein schönes Freilichtmuseum.Viele Mühlen in Originalgröße auf einem großem Freigelände. Die Mühlen sind fast alle begehbar. Sehr beeindruckende Sammlung und sehr gepflegte Anlage. Das Areal ist gross mit ganz vielen Infotafeln. Sehenswert kann den Besuch nur empfehlen.

(Translated by Google) You can do it. Hopefully some attractions will be fully open again soon. Otherwise very interesting exhibition in the fresh air. (Original) Kann man mal machen. Hoffentlich werden einige Attraktionen bald wieder in Gänze geöffnet sein. Ansonsten sehr Interessante Ausstellung an der frischen Luft.

(Translated by Google) The mill museum is located on a varied site with small lakes and rivers. The mills are in an original condition and the production of flour from grain can also be observed. As part of the friendship with Ukraine, the Russian Orthodox wooden church and the Bell Palace were built. There are numerous mill models in the exhibition building. (Original) Das Mühlenmuseum steht auf einem abwechslungsreichen Gelände mit kleinen Seen und Flussläufen. Die Mühlen befinden sich in einem originellen Zustand und auch die Herstellung von Mehl aus Getreide kann beobachtet werden. Im Rahmen der Freundschaft mit der Ukraine sind die russisch-orthodoxe Holzkirche und der Glockenpalast entstanden. Im Ausstellungsgebäude befinden sich zahlreiche Mühlenmodelle.

(Translated by Google) Very nice here many mills from different countries Structure of the mills in pictures to look at Entrance fee is ok (Original) Sehr schön hier viele Mühlen aus unterschiedlichen Ländern Aufbau der Mühlen in Bilden zum anschauen Eintrittspreis ist ok

(Translated by Google) A very beautiful and picturesque place. We've been here several times already, and each of them was memorable. (Original) Очень красивое и живописное место. Были здесь уже несколько раз, и каждый из них был запоминающимся.

(Translated by Google) This is a great place to spend the whole day with the family in the fresh air. We saw lots of great mills, learned about them and the kids all got their money's worth. I definitely recommend trying the bakery. The nice lady in the museum has great experiences for children about “from grain to flour”, highly recommended! (Original) Das ist ein toller Ort für den ganzen Tag mit der Familie in der frischen Luft. Wir haben viele tolle Mühlen gesehen, darüber gelernt und die Kids alle kamen auf Ihre Kosten. Ich empfehle unbedingt die Bäckerei auszuprobieren. Für Kinder hat die nette Dame im Museum tolle Erlebnisse in Sachen "vom Korn zu Mehl" , sehr zu empfehlen!

Stunning City Palace with a remarkable history. The old home of the Dukes of Braunschweig, the last of whom abdicated in 1918, the Schloss was destroyed twice, first by fire and then of course in the bombing raids of the Second World War. Against massive protests it was demolished in the 1960s and finally rebuilt in the 2000s to cover a shopping mall. You can easily spot the parts that came from the original Schloss. The architecture is beautiful and the site is in the centre of the city so absolutely a must visit when in Braunschweig. There’s a small museum in the left hand wing of the palace that is free, as well as the lifts to see the Quadriga at the very top that’s also free for the time being. The entrance is just to the right of the main entrance.

In Brunswick's schlossplatz stands the stunning building known as Brunswick Palace. When I passed by this majestic monument on the route to Gaussberg Park, I must admit that it was awe-inspiring. Only when I travel to the UK do I see monuments like this. According to what I was told, this palace was constructed sometime in the 18th century and underwent a number of renovations over its existence. I have heard that it once served as a residence for the Brunswick dukes in the 18th century. Wonderful to pass past this building.

Very large market set stores all to wear. To all ages and restaurants of supermarkets sweetened glasses and more

There is a good place to spend time and eating, shopping...

Beautiful place to in the evening filled with people and you enjoy a drink and great shopping and food options.

Very beautiful building with a lot of shops inside, interesting connection old with a new one

Very nice view from the top of the buiding. And the statue is fantastic (and very heavy!?). You must see it.

We should really thankful to those people centuries ago constructed these great structures. Every inch has a history and a story and a voice. Kids should be made to learn about these buildings and the people behind it.

Enjoyed the Nativity the children put on. Wished there was more music

This is a marvelous place to visit. Beautiful frescoes! It was great to see the tomb of Henry the Lion and Mathilde as well as the wonderfully atmospheric crypt.

Braunschweig Cathedral is a truly extraordinary place that left a profound impact on me. From the moment I stepped inside, I was transported to a bygone era, overwhelmed by the weight of history that permeates every corner of this majestic structure. The cathedral's architecture is a testament to human creativity and skill. Its soaring spires and intricate details are a sight to behold. The craftsmanship on display is nothing short of remarkable, with each delicate carving and carefully placed stone revealing the dedication and talent of the artisans who brought this architectural masterpiece to life. Every turn brought new surprises, and I found myself lost in admiration, marveling at the sheer grandeur of it all. However, the cathedral's beauty extends far beyond its physical appearance. Its walls reverberate with stories of centuries past, and the sense of timelessness is palpable. It has witnessed historical events, joyous celebrations, and solemn moments of reflection. As I learned about its rich history, I couldn't help but feel a deep reverence for the generations that came before us and the cultural heritage they left behind. Inside the cathedral, I encountered a collection of special sculptures that added an extra layer of fascination. These sculptures, meticulously crafted with exquisite detail, seemed to possess a life of their own. Their expressive forms and captivating presence drew me in, and I was captivated by the stories they told. Each one was a testament to the artistic prowess of the past, reminding me of the power of human creativity and the ability to transform stone into something truly extraordinary. In conclusion, Braunschweig Cathedral is more than just a building. It is a gateway to the past, an architectural wonder, and a repository of history and art. Visiting this remarkable cathedral is an immersive experience that will transport you to ancient times and leave you with a deep appreciation for the enduring legacy of our ancestors. Prepare to be enchanted by its timeless beauty, to marvel at its architectural splendor, and to be moved by the stories it silently whispers.

The structure of the pilars is quite diverse and unusual.

Excellent, Beautiful. The Organ representding Angel Wings was amazing

A long overdue piece , I visited this absolutely beautiful cathedral in April, it was a cloudy morning and I was incidentally in time for Ms.Monika's famed church tour (it was around 11 am ) , and boy was i was amazed. She breathed and lived the cathedral's rich history, dark times and the subsequent restoration. Her impeccable attention to detail and careful explanation bought the cathedral to life. A proficient bi -lingual (German and English) , she did an outstanding job to weave the narrative of the journey of the cathedral from past to present. The tour itself is about an hour and free , the cathedral has stood the test of time and is a testament to faith, history and changing times of the surrounding regions. The architecture (gothic- renaissance) is a splendid remainder of the rich history and cultural heritage of the city itself. The staff and local agencies involved are doing a wonderful job of preserving this splendid piece of architecture, if Braunschweig is not on your radar, give it a try, gems like these won't dissapoint you.

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!

Beautifully renovated cathedral. Well worth a visit.

the most simple, modern church with absolute respect for its historicity. really excited

I love the Architecture. The way it is preserved for us to see and admire the work of Art from the 11th Century, is such a great privilege. No entrance fee. Not crowded. You have all the time to look at all those magnificent Chandeliers, the door, the Pillars etc.

It's museum is worth a visit. Small fee gor a self served coffee/tea at the terrase inside is an extra bonus.

Yes, difficult to review this one. The thought that it was being built 800 AD is fascinating. The restorations are hmmm. I would prefer benches, really. During my visit, they started to play classical baroque music. As much as I love classical music, it has no place in a Catholic Church, also it’s distracting while praying a rosary, there should be not played modern instruments. I really appreciate their talent, but everything has the right time and place, and a Catholic Church is not the same as a Protestant church, the catechism is clear about newer instruments inside the church. Well, but some corners are really beautiful here, even though I am not getting on good terms with the artstyle of the statues, the bigger heads are a bit irritating when used of normal sized statues. A huge old Cathedral with few content, I know small parishes with more art, thought, some of the figures are normal sized, they look really good, and the paintings with baroque-ish decoration were fascinating me as well. Benches would make a huge difference, really.

Very historic cathedral. Well worth a visit even thought the interior looks more modern as it was heavily damaged during WWII and rebuilt. Don't miss the courtyard and cloisters.

Peaceful and pretty place. We were thankful to escape the extreme heat.

The Imperial Palace of Goslar is a remarkable medieval site with a rich history dating back to the 11th century. Inside, the museum showcases artifacts that highlight the Holy Roman Empire’s influence. The Royal Chamber stands out with its beautiful frescoes and impressive medieval décor. From the palace windows, you get a picturesque view of Goslar’s old town, blending history with charming landscapes. While some parts feel a bit worn, the overall experience offers a genuine glimpse into Germany’s imperial past.

Although I never toured the inside of the palace. I thoughly enjoyed the architecture and green space surrounding the site. Some nice views of Goslar behind the palace. Great place to visit.

A majestic historic site that showcases Goslar’s rich past with stunning architecture. The palace and its calm, charming city surroundings make for a truly peaceful visit.

Very helpful staff that made my visit with a mobility scooter easy and very enjoyable! Informative audio guide saves reading all the info tablets and gives good background information on all the exhibits. Well worth a visit!

I really enjoyed it. We got the audio guides which helped explain a lot. I really liked all the imperial art and the explanations behind the depictions. I have never been very good at art history and the symbolism and all of that and the audio guide explanation was very helpful.

Awesome historical place in Hannover City.

Amazing Place. Wonderful historic paintings. Fun to listen to the guide and understand the paintings, so much German history.

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

Fun experience, but tickets are really expensive.

I have to admit I didn’t make it all the way to the top. After being packed in the back of an open train car for an hour, I got off and took a train back down the mountain. The 96 euro cost for two adults is an insane price to pay for no seat assignment. The regional trains are very nice, affordable, not packed, and air conditioned. The nostalgia of steam isn’t worth the hassle.

I Will remember this trip Highly recommend

Really nice experience ... must visit

Great experience but a bit expensive

Must have.

(Translated by Google) This place is worth visiting! Of course, it is desirable to choose good sunny weather to be able to enjoy the incredible view! (Original) Це місце варто того, щоб його відвідати! Звичайно, бажано обрати гарну сонячну погоду, щоб мати можливість насолодитися неймовірним краєвидом!

A lot of reforestation effort needed. Trails are good, Marked accordingly. Activity Center are exceptionally good. Walk in Mines and Caves, also Train to Brocken are a must visit during a trip to Harz

Nice place for hiking

In Germany, one of the best place to trekking especially in winter. I have been to Harz twice. I witness both summer and winter. I like winter more than summer. That view , snow fall, trees, everything was amazing to see... Total 18 km trek. Take some juice , fruits and food. You will definitely need it. I would recommend you guys to go and enjoy the beautiful place. I liked it.

Beautiful nature park with easy mountain peaks, stunning views and scenery. Expect some gravel paths, a few bicycle paths and lots of elephant paths. Make sure to check out the highest peaks around and go for the boulders at the end to fully enjoy the highlights this area has to offer. You're able to fly your drone here as well. Few camp grounds around, so you're able to plan your multiple day hiking trip around those.

We stayed in Harz for a good few days with friends. The amount of beautiful trails, viewpoints, ... Is incredible. In every season stunning. I suggest winter and the peak of autumn. Wake up early and enjoy. Brocken is amazing at sunset! But dont forget to take the train back on time.

I come here for 50 years now and keep coming back. It is a mesmerising area that really calms you down. There is so much to see and do, from nature and culture to outdoor activities. For me the place to go if I need a break.

Incredible park. Trails are vast and interesting. Would highly recommend. Cool folk lore too.

I went there by taking M830 from Goslar Hbf. There is only one or two time each hour,and need to check the time in order not to wait for a long time. The church is very beautiful and attractive. Very impressive. It’s worth visiting. There is a hotel near the church is also quite beautiful.

This little church is seriously stunning! If you're into checking out the impressive woodworking skills that showcase the local architectural style, you're in for a treat. The folks running the place might not have been the friendliest, but we still had a good time during our quick visit.

Interesting church, not a style one would expect in Germany.

Very beautiful church. The unique thing about this church that's it is made of wood. If you came here you should definitely go inside. The enter price is 2 euro, which is really affordable. Inside it's beautiful as well. Just sit in the church for a while, it's a very peaceful place

One of beautiful churches I have seen

A beautifully preserved wooden church with unique Nordic architecture, full of charm and history. The peaceful surroundings make it a perfect spot to pause and admire the craftsmanship.

Absolutely gorgeous and very interesting history of this church. Entry is 2€ - if you like the organ you can book a tour as well. In case the main gate is closed walk up and around to the right to find the entrance. There is parking available close by.

Nice town with a far sized pedestrian zone . Caught a Christmas market while there. The chair lift to the pub restaurant and walking/ Trecker paths on top of the hill for small money 4.50 € up the top and back down. Parking very reasonable in the town also.

A lovely short ride to the Hausberg restaurant offering a fine view of Bad Lauterberg.

Top

Super!

Lovely short ride to a neat mountaintop restaurant. Unfortunately the staff on duty wouldn't speak English, so a girl had her leg pinced and the operator didn't realize it, didn't understand the girl talking and gesticulating and didn't help. Hope the poor girl figured on her own how to unstick her leg. Else the short ride might have been unbearably long for her.

Always interesting and working. Worth using due to nice panorama waiting up there...

Top

It is a wonderful place to visit with the entire family and I will go again there to see the water shows too!

Amazing place for weekend visit Nice walk down the history lane

We visited the lower ground of the castle while on a family vacation. The views are amazing, lovely gardens and many green alleys to indulge in nature. Gardens are very well maintained and are simply breathtaking. You can enjoy a lovely view of the City from the top part of the castle

This is uour change to see the old paint Masters.. incredibble collection. The woman at the entrance really a gem for this museum

Such an amazing castle with beautiful views. The path leading up to the tower is a moderate hike with a lot of stairs to climb but the view from top is worth the hard work.

The view is amazing. It's a good walk, so bring water with you. It was raining and foggy, but it was still worth it. They have some light shows at night, so I recommend going later.

The museum is good enough to enjoy the stories of the Greeks. However, it has no ancient monuments as it contains prototypes for statues, vases and temples. However, It contains some nice art work and it is the only place in Kassel to buy souvenirs as postcards and magnets 🧲 😀. A bit expensive souvenirs, but it's okay..

Journey to the castle is great. However once you reach at the top. Nothing much to do! Something creative can be done for visitors.

Amazing Park with Castle and lots of walking/hiking paths. You could easily spend days here and still not get tired of it. Unfortunately it seems like the day we went they did not have the water on at the Herkules statue. Shame because otherwise it would have been even more beautiful.

Absolutely stunning park! The views are breathtaking, the architecture is majestic, and the walking paths are peaceful and well-kept. A perfect place to relax, enjoy nature, and take great photos. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!

It was very beautiful place to visit, would highly recommend during summer time when there is waterfall.

Absolutely stunning. A lot of walking but there is a shuttle bus from Hercules to the Schloss. A lot of beautiful statues. Allow a good chunk of the day to visit and best on a dry day.

Marvelous piece of man made wonder. Gigantic, rusty and majestic. Nice to trek with the family and have excellent opportunity to explore the nature. From HBF, you can take tram 4 to wilhelmspark and from there either ride with bus line 23 untill Herkules or trek the 3 odd kilometers. Also there are parking opportunities near wilhelmspark tram station but it's filled quickly on Wasserspiel days (Sundays, Wednesdays and public holidays in summer). Worth and recommended.

Absolutely gorgeous park, but be prepared to hike! Walk from the info center to the Hercules statue was about 3 hours one way. The water attractions get filled on Wednesday Friday and Sunday, so try to be at the Hercules statue around 2.

The Hercules monument in Kassel is absolutely breathtaking and truly one of Germany’s most impressive landmarks. Standing high above the city in the Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe, the sheer size and presence of the statue and the pyramid it rests on is awe-inspiring. The panoramic views over Kassel and the surrounding hills are worth the trip alone. What makes the experience even more special is the unique water feature system – when the cascades are running, you can watch the water rush down step by step through the entire park, ending in a dramatic fountain. It’s a spectacular show of Baroque engineering that still feels magical today. The walk up can be a bit demanding, but the combination of nature, history, and architecture makes it unforgettable. Whether you come for the view, the history, or simply to enjoy the peaceful park, the Hercules monument is a must-see highlight of Kassel.

Had a wonderful time visiting Hercules in Germany. The architecture and history are truly captivating. Surrounded by serene nature, the views are breathtaking. A pleasant experience I’d happily relive again.

Beautiful place...as everyone knows it has 500 steps...that you have to climb slowly because you arrive out of breath...you can have a picnic at the bottom...but I went in the summer and the castle was horrible. And it's under renovation. Don't go inside the castle to go up and down for at least two hours while you walk around. If you have more time, even better. The fountains do not have water like in the videos for these dates and the heat was 33 degrees....

The waterfalls and fountains are operated on Wednesdays and Sundays on the afternoon. It’s a wonderful and quite unique spectacle being a UNESCO cultural site. To follow the path of the 5 stations you have to walk over 2 Km, mainly downhill.

Stunning views! Came the first week of November (so naturally the fountains/water were not running), but got some beautiful autumn colours and some blue sky. There is no fee to wander around the monument. I believe there's a museum there, which costs money. Unclear on if anyone is allowed to climb further up the monument (able to walk around the base at the top of the stairs), but there were locked gates blocking off when I went (around 1500h on a Monday). Helpful hint, I took the bus to the Herkules monument and then walked down through the park. It's a lot of stairs to walk up to the top, but really enjoyable walking downhill.

Very bombastic venue, however it is being repaired and not a nice visit ( as of Nov 2035). I wouldn't pay the €8 to go up, unless you wish a wonderful view only, the the construction is rather hideous really. The cascade is worth a walk up and down. Wear good footwear; 535 steps. You can access the staircase cascade free. Chech the timings as the water is only switched on during the summer months, around 14:30hrs. Still worth a visit.

Good for beginners, but nothing like to view, yes the city view is good and the journey from up to down is adventures

Ok 👍

(Translated by Google) Absolutely beautiful. Thanks also to our pilot, Michael, who brought us safely back down to earth. It was an unforgettable evening and a wonderful ride with a fantastic view. The highlight was seeing your own house from above. At the end, the christening ceremony with a certificate was beautifully done and personal. A great idea. The champagne was also excellent. I highly recommend it. (Original) Mega schön. Danke auch an unseren Piloten Michael der uns sicher wieder zu Boden gebracht hat.

A place for spiritual renewal, offering delicious food and some of the world's finest beers. Enjoy the beautiful natural surroundings of this monastery. Can't wait to be back!

Beautiful church, delicious brewery and restaurant, incredible views, and definitely worth visiting.

Must see 17th century Franciscan Monastery just about 25 minutes drive from Rhön Park Hotel.. One should try their famous beer and the food was excellent. 🍻.very popular for hiking!

Loved it! We went on a sunny clear day too! Still a little bit of snow on the ground. It was a great place for us to visit with it being our 1st time visiting Germany.

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. ( counting the stairs is really good fun not only for kids :-D ) . The panoramic view from the top of the hill is also beautiful.

Great place to visit. Also a great place for a religious pilgrimage. And they have great beer.

They sell the best beer ever I have tried so far. It’s a must try here beside their local food and apple juice.

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!

Full Day ticket at KissSalis, it worth every penny! From varieties of in door and outdoor thermal pools to Saunas, beautiful and child friendly setting. Please add Pomes to the menu 😋

Absolutely lovely place. What must be clean is clean. Just relax and warm yourself. I attended alone and brought my father. He liked very much as I did!

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

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.

Beautiful place. Very relaxing, especially nice to visit at night. Good stellplatz camper van overnight parking too. Food good in restaurant. A favourite stopping over spot on our drives south.

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 mark with playgrounds and animals. Really nice and clean. No entrance fee. Dogs on a leash allowed. Definitely recommend!

Very nice “Wild park”, and even more crazy that it's completely for free! You can walk in and enjoy the animals and the lovely park. In addition, they also have a considerable amount of nice playgrounds for all ages.

A great place to get your exercise and make family memories. There are sections that were not here the last time I was here so make sure you have a lot of time because there is a lot to see. Also a great place to let your children run all of their energy out!

Very nice place for kids!

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. Multiple playgrounds and a kids pool/water play area. Right now the various viewing platforms are closed off due to covid. Take bug spray. 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!

Great place for families. Free day outting. Clean and very walkable even for persons with limited abilities. You can feed some of the animals. We have been a few times.

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.

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!

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!

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.

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).

A beautiful place with a pleasant atmosphere and an excellent spa.

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.

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.

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.

Worth a visit The building is beautiful and monumental. The main room is magnificent: the ceiling is painted, and the staircase is impressive

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

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.

Looks truncated.

(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.

(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) Very nice, good location in the old town. (Original) Sehr schön, gute Lage in der Altstadt.

(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.

Excellent place to stand and people watch. The were having a fair so the town was overflowing with beautiful people. The promenade along the canal is perfect for a lovely stroll and a glass.

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.

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...

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.

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!

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.

A beautiful historic spot right in the heart of the city! 🍷 The perfect location to enjoy a glass of wine while taking in the stunning view of Marienberg Fortress. Full of charm and atmosphere — truly unforgettable! ✨

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.

Very nice outlet shopping village, well decorated, almost all branded shops are there, plenty of free parking space. Food in the Italian restaurant is also tasty.

It is for sure very nice looking outlet, but almost impossible to find some really good offers as in some other outlets, prices are pretty high in general, so do not expect some great shopping deals.

Nice place for shopping, multiple brands and should check online for offers, sometime really good offers will be there but in general prices here are not much difference between other places except offers. Nice place and location.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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.

A lot of stores. Not bad discounts. There are a few restaurants but when it’s too hot outside unfortunately doesn’t have anything with air conditioning where you can sit and eat. Parking space is free and that is a big big plus.

The place to buy quality stuff, its a market of world top brands , and sometimes if you are lucky and have some sale on some store, it makes your day because you get super quality stuff for a very very reasonable price, my favorite market 😀

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.

Great views of the valley and good food in this interesting location. I had the Schweitzer Wurstsalat which was pretty good, but the vinaigrette was a bit weak. My wife enjoyed pepper garlic cream soup that was quite good. We finished off with Apfelstrudel with vanilla sauce, which was also good.

Really nice view and delicious food. Perfect place for small October dinner 🤤

Although in ruins it is still a majestic Castle over the pictoresque town of Wertheim. One might feel sick when on the top of the tower but the view is worth climbing up.

Very nice place to spend some time with the family or the friends. There you can find also a place to eat or to have a drink. Also the city of Wertheim is very nice to make a walk, drink a coffee, eat an ice cream. :)

Great view of the city, good local German food :) will back here again

Wow. Just wow. This is a must visit place. The view is amazing. Plus we saw a CONCERT in the castle courtyard.

Good little broken castle with a nice view. Not wheelchair or stroller friendly tho, but still good. 2 euro per person.

Always feel blessed to see such magnificent medieval towns in which are well preserved and maintained in a nice way

Emblematic fountain next to the market square.

bronze fountain of St.Georges from medieval times. in the town main square.

Beautiful spot in beatiful town.

Such a cool town square!!!

Lovely place.

Great building

medieval church from 1156 from romanesque to Gothic architecture. the building offers all. beautiful baroque side altars, tower visit, magnificent bell with a clock timing. large stairs with an open theater and amazing main altar. it is the main highlight of the town.

Besides being a historical building with the greatest architecture, the staircase outside is used by the town as a stage for plays. Away from home and wanting to serve God with fellow worshippers, it was the most amazing sermon I have attended.

Oh wow. Past amazing. Everything is so old! Be sure to go up the bell tower, just watch your times around the bells because it is loud!! The church is just amazing. Only downside is that very little is printed in English so if you're a tourist, be sure to use Google Translate

Schwäbisch Hall is a very nice City to visit, and stopping by ST Michael Church is totally worth it. There are also Restaurants and Stores in the vicinity.

What an absolutely lovely cathedral. Shows the dedication of the locals who built it over the years.

What a view! Climbing the tower is free and highly recommended. Be careful with the bells, they ring pretty loud every 15 minutes.

Beautifully restored church, with al large square in front. Many bars/restaurants in the surroundings. The city is a beautiful historic centre and has many things to see, worthwhile visiting when in the neighbourhood.

great place to spend a day off. Entrance to the gallery is free; a large number of sculpture exhibits are located on the street. Inside there is an interesting selection of art from various directions and periods, a lot of air and light. There is a cafe and toilets. There is also a second museum dedicated to technology. Again, a great place to enjoy a day off.

It was amazing. Totally worth a visit, let alone this great “hidden gem” town.

Interesting modern art museum. The current exhibition presents holograms and third dimension works, definitely worth a visit!

Great place to take in the view. Beautiful and great ambience

It's such a nice Art Gallery, the staff is super friendly and helpful, they hay all types of resources as well for you to dive into the art and actually understand a bit more. It has a small cafe too that is very nice.

Simply amazing variety of works spanning mediums, centuries, themes.... Stunning collection made so readily available to anyone. Love love love everything about the Kunsthalle.

Free arts museum of German screws and bolts billionaire Reinhold Würth. Interesting exhibitions and good cake in the museum Café.
