Well worth a visit, an interesting mix of things to see and do. Does a good job of catering for non Danish speaking visitors but would have got 5 stars if more of the display information cards were in English

Really pleasantly surprised with how fun this museum was. I took my two kids, who are 9 & 11 and they absolutely loved it there! There are so many activities that you don’t have time to get bored. Very interactive and educative. It costs 110dkk to get in but for 130dkk you can get a season pass, so it was a no brainer! Already looking forward to going back as we didn’t have time to try everything after our 4 hour visit!

Great place to visit with kids. Lots of stuff to see and try. They have a tesla coil which is a must see. Also there are a 1920s, 1930s and 1950s house for you to explore.

Good day with sunshine weather and activities for all family members, some to see what we learned in school, other to play and have fun

Very interesting. They have live sessions, teaching about cool science.

We had a great time looking round, using their hands on display and seeing how technology has moved.

Great for families. Good value for money as children are free. Lots of things to try out for kids. Moon car race track, lightning show, insect sampling, pet goats, train ride.

Museum Jorn is a quiet and small museum. It can be an enjoyable stop for those interested in Asger Jorn’s style. Some of the works are quite interesting and unique, and overall, the museum has a different kind of atmosphere. If you have time in Silkeborg, it’s worth a visit.

You have to visit this beautiful museum and enjoy some of his great, great paintings.....AND then take a walk in INDELUKKET

Cool and reasonably sized museum. Both Jorn and other artists too. Great for kids, painting studio and a really nice playground just around the corner.

Beautiful museum and surroundings. Art collection ok. Go for the architecture and cafe, and then take a stroll in the park on the marina.

Small, cosy full of wonderful art. Perfect location!

Fun and creative museum with amazing collection and greatly curated exhibitions, we thoroughly enjoyed. Friendly and helpful service as well and nice gift shop!

I truely recommend Asger Jorn museum. Like walking in another time

♿ Entrance = Yes ♿ Parking = Yes ♿ Building = Yes ♿ Elevator = medium size There are many parking lots in front of the building where you can park and the entrance is big enough for wheelchair users. The main building has a souvenir area, AQUA and outside there are several animals and a massive playground. The Aqua building is a bit of a let down if you don't speak danish. Most of the floors are only in the danish language. The outside has like 19 different animals and every hour some of the animals are fed by the zookeeper's. They are also telling more about the backstory of the animal. The entire park is accessible by a wheelchair but the only thing you may want to keep in mind that the sand walking path can be soft at times beEventually you will come across a big water playground for the kids and I'm talking around the size of one animal place, which makes This place amazing for kids if they have swimming clothes. One thing I don't understand is why the snacks and the ice cream shop is only open on the weekend. They are missing out on a lot of money by having the shops closed because of the kids and the big playground. Most families have 2+ kids. They have free WIFI. I have seen everything in 3 hours but it may be possible for you to do less making it debatable if the entry price seems fair or a bit too expensive (especially if you don't understand the danish language in the AQUA)

It is not that big but the water play is very amazing. They called it a aquarium zoo but not much fish nor not much animal Instead the design for water plan is very nice, based on the environment of the beaver, which is the animal you see. Their website can improve on more info on English and also let parents know to bring bathing suits

Go on a sunny day if you have children — then it’s probably a 5-star place to be. Most of the park is outdoors, and they have a big playground, which is fantastic for kids. Everything is based around water mechanics, so bring some swimwear! Why it was a 3-star place for us: we don’t have children (yet), so we came for the animals and to learn something. In the aquarium, as a foreigner, you’ll need a good internet connection for Google Translate because everything is in Danish… The upper floor looked educational, but I had no idea what it was trying to tell me. I found one monitor that could switch to English, but it failed to load. Outside, there is some English on the signs, which helped a bit. The otter exhibit is so overgrown with vegetation that, with a bit of luck, we saw one — but it ran away immediately. The beaver exhibit was the best part! One of the beavers was swimming while the others, including a few babies, were sleeping — it looked really cozy! All the animals are native to Denmark, so don’t expect any fancy, bright-colored fish. There’s a small parking lot in front of the aquarium. You’ll need some luck to find a spot there.

Nice local fauna, animals, and fish display. Many places for children to play, places to eat, and picnic areas.

This place is a hidden gem, especially for anyone interested in local Danish nature. The focus on fauna from the Gudenåen area is both educational and fascinating, and the otters, racoons and beavers are so cute. You can watch the otters being fed and hear how they get there. They also do rescue work and take care of otters needing help. The staff are friendly and welcoming. While the aquarium seems to cater mainly to families with young children, it’s just as enjoyable for adults visiting solo. The eel exhibit, in particular, is both intriguing and a little eerie, making it a standout experience. The location itself is stunning, set in a beautiful area perfect for a peaceful walk by the lakes and river afterward. It's well worth a visit!

Exhibit for the fish is a bit limited but combined with garden outside makes it worth coming here with children. Also there is a good walking trail along side the lake. Café Dråben is where its extremely disappointing. I dont think the fault is with the teenage girls doing the cooking but rather the ingredients and how the girls were taught to prepare food. One of the worst salads i ate in my life.

Amazing experience! Instead of going and seeing the standard 'zoo setup', use the experience to see what cute creatures and other animals are living in the forests, rivers here in Europe. Easy to get there, by car or train (I travelled from Aarhus by train). Tickets cost cheaper if bought online and I suggest visiting the centre in morning, around 10:00 then the animals haven't had their breakfast yet and are more active and visible. Timewise - and hour is enough, in case you are in rush, if not, then you can enjoy the park for longer time, there was a space dedicated for children and areas where you can sit down and rest for a while, if needed. Recommend!

This prison museum was incredibly interesting and left a deep impression. I found every section engaging, with new and informative displays around each corner. The basement was the most impactful part for me — especially the photo of a former prisoner, which really stayed with me. Most of the written information is available in English, making it easy to follow along. However, the films are all in Danish, so keep that in mind if you don’t speak the language. Overall, a powerful and well-designed museum that I definitely recommend visiting.

Amazing museum. Very busy, great stories to tell.

It was okay but we had smaller children and it was not very interesting for them. The biker gang stuff, the contraband search game and the escape tunnel were good though and I would still recommend it if people have the time.

Faengslet as an event site has potential but it is cold everywhere. The atmosphere is authentic but low-key. We had a great event!

Museum and Christmas market opening- was spectacular

Amazing history museum in an old prison. It guides you through history of Danish penal system and engages you with stories of Danish criminal underground and increduble jailbreaks.

A nice stay. Extra plus for the good beds and superb bed lining. On the downside it smelled of mold in the sleeping area. The museum was a treat and the whole family enjoyed it.

Bogense Havn og Marina, located on the northwest coast of Funen in Denmark, is a picturesque harbor combining the charm of the old fishing harbor with the amenities of a modern marina. The marina boasts 700 berths, making it the largest on the island, and offers facilities such as a playground, fitness area, and nearby sandy beach. Visitors can enjoy various dining options, including fresh seafood at local restaurants, and explore attractions like the mermaid statue "Elle" and the Hans Christian Andersen sculpture. The harbor area is also known for hosting events like live music performances and vintage car meets during the summer months. Bogense Marina is conveniently located within a 10-minute walk to the town center and swimming bath.

Cosy and small beach with a lot of opportunities,playing ground for children, free parking, clean toilets and barbecue,grill zones.

What a beautiful place to be!!😍 Everyone should visit this harbor, beach and the pier...it's an amazing place to be. Sit on one af the many wooden seats & enjoy, just like we did💗

Amazing place to see. You can meet crabs as well. Really good and poor place

Big places for big boats just at the entrance to the harbor - easy to enter from the sea side - very cozy habour area and great walking areas around Bogense city.

Nice place to stop with campervan for a night. Electricity, Toilet, Shower and CamperserviceStation available.

A very nice marina. With a nice playground and plenty of places to barbecue

The science museum is free to enter and you could certainly have a great time in here. The museum seems to be more targeted for a younger audience than for adults who aren't parents. Parents will probably have a good time here with their childrens. I have not seen all of it and left early as I felt like it wasn't meant for me but for kids. Therefore I gave a 3 / medium rating as I didn't saw everything. The place is wheelchair accessible and bad walkers, their is an elevator for those who needs it too. There are several staircases throughout the building and rooms each with their own display. Some rooms are harder to access for wheelchairs users. Make sure to visit this place if you have children or early teen with you!

Really nice place to learn with the kids. Lovely roof garden to relax on and best of all it's completely free 😁

The Science Museum is a must-visit, especially for families with kids. Best of all, it’s completely free to enter. What makes it special is how interactive it is—children can press buttons, try experiments, and explore hands-on exhibits that bring science to life. It’s fun, educational, and designed to spark curiosity in a way that keeps kids entertained for hours. A fantastic day out and highly recommended!

This place was incredible- so interactive and creative. My 7 year old gave it 1000/10 and wanted to go round twice. Highly recommend and it’s free!!

This is a FREE, fun, interactive learning space! So many topics, concepts and area to explore. It is obviously mostly in Danish, but there are small English translations throughout as well, so not all is lost! Toilets, free WiFi, a little shop, an area where you can swap clothes - bring some clothes to be able to take some. The info you can learn is relevant to every day life and is so interactive!! You could easily spend hours here. It is right across from the train station if you come by train. Very close to the walking street as well. For some reason it is having tantrums when I try to add photos... which is a shame because I took many!!!

An amazing place that is free to visit. It has a good array of exhibits detailing sustainability and climate change and I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Toilets were clean too on site. The toilet simulator was the most unique item here. Recommended if you are visiting Vejle.

Very good interactively presented know-how for all ages. The content is fun, but also educative. Shop and playgorund also worth a visit.

Great acoustic, friendly staff and next level shows 🤩

Productions are stunning and definitely worth watching! And that's enough to give them 5 stars even though the seating wasn't that comfortable in my opinion.

Very nice theater with stunning performances way above what you would expect in a city this size. Their musicals are fantastic and sometimes world premieres. Many of the shows are later touring Copenhagen and Aarhus. The building itself is not the very best from audience perspective, as it is rather narrow and deep

Live performance of the highest standards - musical theatre lovers delight!

Have been to Fredericia Teater three times now to see Rasmus Seebach Musical, The Prince of Egypt and now Tarzan. It a great experience each and every time. Thanks.

Coming from New York, I can say this is easily broadway quality and the best theater (value for the money) in Denmark!

Show was great - room was so sweltering hot that I was literally dripping with sweat. Has to be better at that price point.

Local highlight. Exciting and engaging exhibition that are suitable for all ages. Beautiful location, garden and building. I can’t recommend enough if you’re passing through the area

The internationally renowned museum of modern art, craft and design, Trapholt, is situated in gorgeous surroundings by Kolding Fjord. The museum featuring paintings and sculptures made by famous international and Danish artists. Its a must visit place in Denmark 🇩🇰. Highly recommended.

Trapholt always puts on very interesting exhibitions and Feel me is well worth a visit. Daniel Wurtzel's piece Air Fountain in particular makes the trip exceptional but there are many other wonderful works included which means that you should go. If you have time and spare cash for a visit to the cafe then that's recommended as well. It may seem dear at first glance but you get value for money with good food and sizeable portions. Don't forget to grab a piece of cake if you have room for it (we didn't 😂). After lunch make sure you stick your head out into the lovely grounds which offer rich beds of flowers at the right time of year (we were there in July), and beautiful views of the sea all year round.

I recently visited Trapholt in Kolding with my parents and my girlfriend, and despite not being someone who regularly visits modern art museums, this experience turned out to be a truly pleasant surprise. Trapholt is beautifully located near the water and has a light, open architecture that makes it feel welcoming and easy to explore. The layout of the museum is very visitor-friendly, and it was a joy simply walking through the space. Many of the exhibitions invited a kind of semi-interactive experience, which made the visit feel more engaging and personal. During our visit, we saw two major exhibitions: Michael Kvium – Skyggeteater (Shadow Theatre) and Mie Olise Kjærgaard – Agile Aggressions. Kvium’s work was, as always, thought-provoking and slightly unsettling, exploring the darker sides of human nature through dramatic imagery and strong symbolism. Mie Olise Kjærgaard’s exhibition, on the other hand, felt more abstract and experimental, and it invited us into a colorful and chaotic universe that was both playful and aggressive, in the best possible sense. One of the highlights of the day was visiting the Arne Jacobsen summerhouse, which is an integral part of the museum’s permanent collection. This full-scale house was designed by the famous Danish architect and designer in the 1950s, and walking through it was like stepping into a living design catalog. The house is a unique example of modernist architecture and functionalist design, with every detail—furniture, color palette, materials, and layout—carefully thought out. It showcases Jacobsen’s ability to combine simplicity with elegance, creating a space that feels both practical and deeply aesthetic. For anyone with even a passing interest in design or architecture, the summerhouse is an absolute must-see. All in all, Trapholt offered an inspiring and relaxed art experience that felt approachable even for someone not deeply immersed in the world of modern art. It’s a place I would definitely recommend—and one I wouldn’t hesitate to return to.

Very nice museum, great exhibitions.

A great experience overall. I went with no expectation and knew nothing of the current exhibitions. There was a good selection of art pieces and great variety in styles, concepts and shapes. The tour to the Kubelflex was also something I recommend as it adds to the visit. I spent 2 hours there and covered all available rooms.

Nice visit at Trapholt. And a lovely picnic in the park around the museum, with an amazing view over Kolding Fjord. Our 11yr son also enjoyed the exhibition

It's a really nice place with a lot of things to do and explore. We had a lot of fun being there. We missed a lot of shows because of our poor timing and the language (some of them are in german). There's a lot of things to do for children and adults alike. We especially enjoyed the wind tunnel ( Beat the Storm) and the Sky Trail (the climbing area...beware of vertigo). It's a good place to visit 2, 3 times. After buying your way in, they will give you a bracelet with a chip encoded that will help you enter anywhere in the park. The restaurants prices are a little steep, but that's to be expected. The staff is friendly and helpful at any stage. You have the option to rent a small wagon for your children or your things, to carry around, for a 50 dkk fee. Most attractions have a secure locker room that you can open via your bracelet, so you can store your belongings while visiting. The parking is decently big, but I would still recommend coming in early. Get your tickets in advance so that you can benefit from 25% discount. [Furthermore, you get a 50% discount if you have a season pass from other attractions (like Givskud Zoo)].

The park is very interesting and educational. However, the way how the park handle the visitors in virtual line making it super unfair for the visitors with regular tickets. At the Sky Trail, the employees kept letting the visitors in the virtual line to get in first whenever they showed up even though the people in the regular line had already waited there for more than 20 minutes (the regular line was not even long at all).

Great expectations and some of them delivered in plenty. Innovative games, quizzes and challenging engaging experiences for most ages. Unfortunately this day some of the biggest exhibitions were closed due to a faulty fireprevention system or other fault. There was a lack of communication from the staff as to why half of the exhibitions were closed due to this.

It's a large science park that kids can enjoy. Children can become familiar with different scientific concepts, play games, and have fun, while parents can enjoy the beautiful and green area inside the park. There are restaurants, ice-cream shops, gift shop, etc. It is a fun way to spend a day.

2025-09-14 - Visited with my wife and three daughters (age 9, 6 and 3). We had a great day with lot of fun. The park is best if you are more than 1,3 meters high as there was quite many attractions which only my oldest daughter could try… Bust still we had a good day!

It's a nice place to spent a day with the kids. I would give it 4,5* if possible. The missing half star is because there were some experiments that where not working ( fire zone) and you should work on the soap mix in the bubble zone 😉

I’m writing to express concern about an incident that occurred during our recent visit. While most of the experience was fine, we encountered a moment that felt disturbingly discriminatory. At the Skytrail climbing attraction, our children — who were clearly waiting earlier in the queue — were consistently overlooked, while others who arrived later were helped and equipped first. There was no clear order or number system, yet our children were skipped without explanation. The contrast in how other children were assisted — with attention and patience — was stark. A similar situation occurred at the Segway station, where one of the same staff members again seemed to intentionally avoid instructing or assisting our children, while being notably more attentive to others. Being treated this way — especially when children are involved — simply because of where we come from is unacceptable. We came as paying guests like everyone else, and no one deserves to feel ignored or unwelcome because of their background. Discrimination, intentional or not, has no place in any customer-facing setting. We truly hope your team will take this feedback seriously and address it with the relevant staff. Every child deserves equal treatment and kindness, regardless of nationality. Kind regards, Alla

Came a bit late so I didn't get a chance to get inside but, the views from outside were just as amazing. Take a stroll and enjoy the cool breeze

We were here because our old friend work as tour guide. Very interesting museum and we were learn about the history of the 1st world war between Denmark and Germany. The kids were enjoyed! Learn about the morse and old fashioned bowling. And beautiful views and the windmill.

It is an interesting historical place for the battle that happened here. Mostly for Germans and Danes. Even though it was back in 1864, there's a lot of information about who was fighting and who died. It was also the first time the Red Cross was there to help.

Historic place. Denmark and Germany in war in 1884. Very realistic place to visit. Definitely worth a visit also for families with children. There are lots of realistic buildings and exhibits. Once you have visited the place, you can go down to Dybbøl mill. Is it a summer day you visit the place, lies Vemmingbund beach, not far from there. A lovely beach

Very interesting exhibition with lots of history about what happened in the months of 1864. Unfortunately it is a very small site and you can see it all in a few hours. But if you add some walking routes in the surrounding area to see the ancient battle positions it will take longer. Support history and visit this site if you are in the area.

The guides make the experience. They are great at sharing the history in a way that appeals to both children and adults. Very much worth a visit.

Fantastic and fascinating guided tour! We did not know what to expect, but we were plesantly suprised. It's exciting and we learned a lot ! Definelty worth a visit !

Had to postpone a private booking due to a death in the immediate family. The venue deliberately didn't respond to mails and calls weren't answered because they were moving to another place or something. Then they refused to postpone the booking because it's a new venue, and had to receive full payment with no service. They didn't even claim part of the responsibility.

How’s our wedding plus reception at Gram Slot. We also booked our all the accommodation. Owner Svend and Exec Chef/Manager Alex were very accommodating for the 60 people in attendance. Accommodation was clean and spacious. Team were very helpful in ensuring satisfaction of our guests. Food quality was fantastic and the wine pairings were perfect. Really recommended!

Returning for the second time, with a two year gap and the development of the place astonishes me! A very nice place to visit and a fine example on how an idea can become a community wide project and commitment.

Their website somehow lacks quite a bit of information about events going on. If there had been more information the trip would have been far more enjoyable. A lot of the things that happen there only happen at a certain time once a day and the information for some of these things were hard to find.

We held our wedding dinner at Gram Slot, and was very satisfied :) The food and location was amazing and we got the bridal suite on the second floor with view of the garden. The only thing we did not understand was why they do not have more weedings at the castle, it is ideal for it :) Pricewise it was really good as well, 21 adaults, 2 kids was less than DKK 20K. Thank you Gram Slot for having us!

Small castle where nearby you can rent a room without AC and sometimes with 1 toilet for 3 rooms.

Omfg. Downtown Abbey eat your heart out! Such a stunning place! The beauty cant be explained or put in words!

Too few to visit basically only a few ship models to see along with some history of German Navy. View at the top is great

You can walk up on the inside however the stairs are open so you can look down, not good if you don’t like heights.I’m ok looking out just not down. That the lift as the view is worth it. The museum is also interesting and they used the same scale for the models so you can compare the sizes of the vessels

Super interesting and impactful experience. I am more of an artsy person, but i would not miss this. Definitely worth the entrance fee especially to see all the ship models, the view and the submarine! It is such a unique experience to walk inside a submarine and get to know all the historical and technical details about it. I absolutely recommend to visit.

In memory to the fallen soldiers. The memorial looks powerful and depressive. Inside there are some pictures and stories about the war time. I like the wall with many submarines, it shows how many of them sank. It is crazy. So many lost lives. The tower is quite high and inside is a bit creepy if you walk the stairs. The view from the tower is great. It is definitely worth seeing it.

Fascinating memorial tastefully done.

Just down the street about a block, there is a ticket stand that will sell you a ticket to get in. Well, it's less of a ticket and more of a token that you put in at the turnstile. This originally was the German Naval Memorial for the sailors of the German Navy during World War I. After the Second World War it was then changed into an all naval memoral for sailors of all countries' Navys. Behind the tower is a museum that goes over the history of the German Navy and a number of Naval Maritime Disasters. I would highly suggest that you go through this portion of the museum before going into the tower itself. Once you get through the museum you go down a set of stairs and underneath the open area that you walked across to get to the museum. Under here are a number of wreaths and memorials to ships and sailors who lost their lives. You will then cross to the other side where you will enter into the tower itself and the exhibit continues. And shows the losses of German ships during both world wars and The transformation of the German Navies. You can take the flight of stairs, or the elevator all the way up to the top of the memorial where you have a wonderful view of U-995 and the surrounding beach. 12/10 would recommend you to go visit if you're in the area.

Interesting combination of a memorial and a museum. U995 is a must see if you can, also. Wonderful view of the coast if you go to the top of the memorial tower.

This is probably the number 1 attraction in the area, and yet you don't need to be there long, and it definitely stirs mixed emotions. On the one hand, it's really cool to get to walk through a submarine, the engineering, the equipment, the pipes and valves, the electrics and communication, etc. are all fascinating. So, too, is a view of how the crew slept and ate in such a cramped space. But then the sombre thought that these guys were killing your guys, never really leaves you. Lest we forget.

A fantastic visit to the U-995 submarine in Laboe! An educational and informative experience about naval history and World War II. The submarine is clean and well-organized, with clear explanations. Perfect for families and history enthusiasts.

The Uboat gives an excellent insight to the life on the narrow boat during second worldwar and after. It is amazing to see how tight these places have been.

Been on my bucket list for a few years. Great piece of machinery well worth a visit.

Impressive! Well maintained, easy to access and such an historical place. Respect to submariners for their courage.

Super cool. Would recommend to anyone interested in war history. Would like to give a shoutout to the nearby restaurant "Fischkuche Laboe". Vistit this place if you're in the area. They have the best schnitzel and fries i have ever tasted.

A worthy memorial and museum for sailers in WW1 and WW2. Nice view on the top, and U-996 was cool to walk through.

It could be a good area for those who interested in local historical background and buildings. Like many other places in Germany, this area has been cared and well maintained by the people cherish the local historical relics. Inside of area where hidden some exciting lovely dining places can be found, such as beer garden, Irish and British restaurants, bars and etc.. How interesting!Imagine you spend a wonderful evening in the English garden right in the middle of German town! Little shops and boutiques have been opened since then. If you’re new in town, this is one of place you should not miss.

Classic Germany city atmosphere, clean, historic, quiet. It's a bit small, unfortunately there aren't many eating and drinking options.

Interesting place in Flensburg with lovely old side-streets & niche businesses. Flensburg great place to explore with haven & boat trips. 10 minutes over border to Denmark, all very friendly & relaxed - multilingual - German, Danish, English.

Verona - via Munich, to the danish girl that recommended going to Flensburg and visiting Rote Strasse´, big Thank You! =) I very much appreciated the "old town" style architecture and small shops, cafés, museums. The street is short but walking to the right at the end (coming in from Klostergang) will take you to a town square with local market (saturday only?) and after that you have the main street of FLensburg straight ahead as well, plenty to see. Much better than staying in Hamburg on my way home, genom Danmark till(+) Sverige.

(Translated by Google) I had read about the red street and wanted to see it for myself. What can I say? I'm absolutely thrilled with the atmosphere; the courtyards are fantastic and so cozy.

(Translated by Google) Great street with lots of beautiful interior open spaces. Art street I would say. Worth a visit. (Original) Supert gate med mange flotte invendige åpne arealer. Kunst gate kan jeg si. Verdt å besøke.

(Translated by Google) This street is only a few hundred meters long...but it's absolutely beautiful and definitely worth seeing! Be sure to check out the many courtyards with their great shops and restaurants. You almost feel like you've stepped back into the Middle Ages. (Original) Diese Straße ist zwar nur einige hundert Meter lang...aber wunderschön und absolut sehenswert! Unbedingt in die vielen Hinterhöfe mit tollen Geschäften und Gastronomie reinschauen. Man fühlt sich fast ins Mittelalter versetzt.

It is a really beautiful place all around full of history Unfortunately, I do not speak German and inside the museum there really is very little that can be found with information in English I expected to have more knowledge about what am so passionate about, but that was not the case Still, I recommend the place

It really is hard to represent this place via pictures. The quiet, the smell, the absolutely immense size of the site... you must go and experience it. The village was built with impressive attention to detail. The animals surrounding the area add to the atmosphere of a time were food was produced close to where it was consumed. The sheep you can actually get close too and approach. Museum staff is adorable! =) Super helpful in setting up the voice guides. Definitely a bucket list item for viking and nature fans. Notes I wish I had before going: 1) It's a huge place! Go with time. At least half a day. The museum closes at 17h, that can complicate an afternoon visit. 2) Start at the museum, it will give you context on the landscape where the village sits. 3) Take food with you. There is a coffee shop there, but limited meal choices. Only one restaurant close by. Decent food, but bit pricey. Not very friendly to foreigners, no English menu. 4) If you are into woods, you can take some extra time to explore the area around. 5) If you go by public transport, remember it's a rural area. Flashier clothes / left leaning symbols may get you an occasional intrigued and not so friendly pair of eyes.. or comments.

Good museum of the Viking Age. For English speakers there is a complete book of reading for the exhibits and you can use your phone for audio and text information. The outdoor recreation of buildings is good but under developed - there is little explanation. A lot more could be done here.

Very interesting and informative museum of the Viking city of Hedeby. That was a power Center of Denmark in the Viking age.

Absolutely fascinating place with an importance during Viking times that can hardly be exaggerated. Highly recommended!

Very interesting museum and exhibits rather spoilt by poor building design and poor exhibition design. When we visited we had to wait for about 20 minutes outside the entrance before we could buy tickets. What happens when it rains? The entrance building should have been much larger in order to accommodate the large numbers of people who visit. Once we had tickets we had to go outside again to access the exhibition crossing the line of people waiting to buy tickets. Large numbers of the exhibits are badly lit so that it is not possible to read the information cards. Some exhibits are on shelves above eye level so it is not possible to see them! There is very little information in English. At the housing site there is a short leaflet available describing the houses but at the main exhibition there is virtually no information available in English. I am sure that English-speaking visitors would be willing to buy an information booklet in English; it would make the visit so much more enjoyable and informative! So many opportunities have been missed!

I attended the summer Market (Viking event) held on the archaeological site. So, a visit inside the museum was absolutely necessary. The museum is very interesting as you will see all the items found so far on the site. I heard that the searches are not finished yet, so more items are added year after year.

During our trip to Denmark, we made a stop at Gottorf Castle (Schloss Gottorf) and were pleasantly surprised by the experience. The castle is located in a picturesque spot surrounded by beautiful trees and lush green areas, offering a peaceful atmosphere. The numerous sculptures scattered around the grounds add a unique artistic flair, making the castle even more iconic and memorable. Although it’s not a luxury castle, it holds a lot of historical charm. The cozy coffee shop outside was perfect for a quick break, and the convenient parking space made it easy to rest during our journey. Gottorf Castle is definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area – a great blend of culture, history, and nature that provides a perfect stopover on a long drive.

An excellent, detail oriented museum combining ongoing exhibitions on regional art, culture and history as well as special ones. As it is quite large it is advisable to plan according to own points of interest beforehand, as there is a lot to see.

Great Museum. Spent the day here and didn't get to see everything. The Palace has 2 Museums, one of the local history, the other of Art and Culture. There were also 2 art exhibitions, 1 one of which was included in the price of €10, the other was 5€ extra. The Gardens and park were free, the Globus in the gardens is an extra 3€. Great value for money. Highly recomended. Haitabu, Schleswig, Kappeln and the Schlei are all very close by.

Beautiful museum, beacuse of lack of time i only manage to see new viking exhibition + early medieval and late medieval in main building. The only thing that is missing is date/period on exhibit description.

Stopped here driving from Germany to Denmark. You can walk around outside for free. It is very picturesque! There was a small Cafe on the grounds. Plenty of free parking.

Amazing collection showing pieces from the county from the building of the original castle back in the 1100s. No English translation on the individual exhibits, but a nice description in general of each room on a display stand. The Nydamboot display, a 23m viking boat found in a nearby bog, in a separate building is very well done. We didn't have tune to see the baroque gardens, the archaeological exhibit, or the other art displays in the stable buildings, so definitely a reason to go back again.

A hidden gem of a museum, just outside of Schleswig at the Schlei (Sly Firth). Stone Age tools, Bog bodies, Iron Age relics, an old rowboat that is close to 1800 years old, and so much more await in this very well curated museum. A great overview over human activity reaching back thousands of years, in what is now northern Germany and southern Denmark. Many signs are in German and Danish only, but English reference text and possibly audio are available.

First time for me . My cousin is going to the Festspiele for for 20 years (?) easily . Great atmosphere in the town of Bad Segeberg and in the arena .

Omg, this was so amazing. Can only recommend! Wonderful atmosphere!

Disgusting experience and the rudest personeel I have every experienced. This venues is explicitly not recommended. Disgusting organisation and very armature. Not worth the expensive ticket price. A weist of time and money. Not recommended

Supposedly a great show. Was supposed to be seated front and center but could not go to seat because our kid was asleep in his pram. After being told it was ok to seat somewhere in the middle, eventually got told off and had to go all the way up to the very back seats where it was very windy. Completely killed it for me.

Fantastic show with professional stunts 👌🏻

You have to see the show!

Absolutely worth it. 2.5 hour show , western.

An interesting way of transporting people and cars over the canal. As pedestrians and bikes are prioritised, and the que for cars can be long (takes max 4 cars of max 3,5 tons, and no motorhomes), go there on foot or by bike. It's free of charge either way. Runs 4 times per hour.

A really beautiful bridge with an interesting transportation for crossing the river. Meanwhile, taking a train passing through the bridge is fantastic, sine it is really high, you would get an astoniahing view. ;)

Great historical technology still in service to admire

Wonderful service from the Schwebebahn Captain, who opened up the barriers for us although he was ready to go.

Absolutely worth a little detour: the re-opened „flying ferry“ across the canal :)

Great place if you like this kind of construction and water!!!

Unfortunately closed, otherwise higher rating!

Great little “village” of designer brands from all categories, dotted with coffee shops and ice cream parlors. The shopping selection is impressive and well-organized, with something for every taste and budget. Food wise, it’s functional rather than fantastic but enough to keep you going. Don’t expect a culinary highlight. A well-maintained and pleasant place for a day of bargain hunting (weather permitting).

Nice place, many brand outlets are available here. Need to pick and choose for offers. Majorly good for shoes brands like Nike and Adidas, schedules particularly. Beautiful place very neat and clean, nice cozy restaurants and different options to pick and choose. Play area for the kids all in all very good place to visit with family.

Nice place....reminds me of Kildare Village in Ireland which is an excellent Outlet shopping experience. Some good dealson leather goods and clothes. Lots of hot dogs and beer as its Germany naturally but tasty!

I arrived early in the morning at Designer Outlet Neumünster, when all the shops were still closed and the place was quiet. The calm before the shopping rush gave me a chance to really take in the spacious layout and the modern design of the outlet. Located on Oderstraße 10, it’s about 45 minutes by car from Hamburg, and you can also get there by train from Hamburg Dammtor to Neumünster with a transfer, which takes around 1.5 hours. Even before the shops opened at 10 am, I noticed the huge parking area with plenty of spots, including premium and electric vehicle charging stations. The outlet hosts over 120 designer stores offering discounts up to 70%, featuring brands like Karl Lagerfeld, Woolrich, and Zwilling. I was excited to come back later and explore all the fashion, accessories, and more. The peaceful morning also gave me a moment to appreciate the cafes and restaurants that would soon fill with visitors. It felt like a perfect blend of convenience and style, making it clear why this spot is a favorite for both locals and travelers looking for great deals near Hamburg. If you’re coming without a car, the best way is to take the train from Hamburg Dammtor to Neumünster, then a short bus or taxi ride to the outlet. It’s an easy trip and well worth it for a day of shopping and relaxing in a clean, welcoming environment.

Designer Outlet Neumünster is a pleasant place to visit with a good variety of shops and a clean, well-organized layout. While not everything is cheaper than elsewhere, you can still find some good deals if you take the time to look around. There are also a few places to eat, which makes it easy to spend a few hours here. Parking is simple and convenient, which is always a plus. Overall, a nice shopping experience

Thats a great place for shopping. You can find deals, coffee shops, chocolate store, food trucks, parking. Everything

I recommend a WHOLE day here. It's really worth seeing all the stores, we spent 4.5 hours there and it wasn't enough. Coach, Aigner, Joop Mixed with Levi, Marco Polo , Wrangler ... A mix of high end brands and affordable brands. Highly recommend 🥳

Nice place to relax, especially with children. It’s very warm everywhere, which makes it quite cozy. However, the whole experience is significantly affected by the following issues: • Mediocre food at best, for premium prices. Bringing your own food is forbidden, yet you’re expected to pay 10+ euros for a Currywurst and fries (“Sparmenü”). I wouldn’t complain if the food quality and taste were acceptable. • Changing is challenging. There are very few changing rooms, which are not practical for families. As a result, you may end up having to change in the open areas. • Too few lockers for valuables. By noon, I found all of them already occupied. Overall, I found that the experience fell short in a few areas compared to the advertising. It feels a bit run-down, yet you’re expected to pay premium prices. Around 100€ per day for two adults and two kids is typical.

Absolutely amazing! Thank me of the top indoor/outdoor pools in Germany. We went here expecting to just spend 2-3hrs. We ended up staying the whole day. Plenty of fun’s for the kids. The saunas are phenomenal. Highly recommend. Recommend bringing your own towels and robes for the sauna. But you can also rent them for a small fee.

Our favourite family place. Very peaceful during the workdays. Plenty of amenities for all. Clean and well organised. Personnel is friendly and very helpful. External pool is amazing during night. Sauna world is a great place to relax. Strongly recommend this place for families. Couples should try sauna world in winter.

Total Relaxation at HolstenTherme – A Wellness Paradise HolstenTherme is an incredible wellness destination just outside Hamburg. From the moment you enter, you’re welcomed by a clean, peaceful, and beautifully designed space that makes it easy to relax and forget the outside world. The sauna area is truly outstanding – with seven themed saunas inspired by different parts of the world, from the Finnish Erdsauna to the African Kalahari and the Oriental steam bath. Each one offers a unique atmosphere and a perfect way to unwind. The swimming pools, including both indoor and outdoor areas, are warm and inviting, and the spa offers excellent massage services. There’s also a modern fitness studio and a delicious on-site restaurant with exotic dishes and a relaxing vibe. Whether you’re looking for a few hours of relaxation or a full day of wellness, HolstenTherme is absolutely worth the visit. Highly recommended – 5 stars!

Absolutely fantastic for families. Warm water, wonderful Saunas. Love it!!! And the system where you can pay with wristband is so practical

Probably the best spa resort for families with small children. Suggested to come at the opening hours, tends to get very full during midday. Also, it is advised to order lunch before 12:00, because the wait times get long. Otherwise top when it comes up cleanliness and service.

Everything was ver nice! That is the most clean wellness center I have ever seen, of course we went on a Monday which is not so crowded but still you can see they take care of the place! The stuff was very polite and helpful and I loved how the place has so many different styles to relax! Also the price is quite fair for what you get! I am taking one star away because the sauna programs was like everything the same ,boring and never on time! We were there sitting and waiting for the people to come slowly and make the program! Also there was no rule for staying quiet as a result some rude people to talk o laugh loud and none of the stuff do anything! Bit annoying! And one more reason that the bar was a little expensive! I mean 2,40€ for a small glass tap water is waaay too much! Above all that was a place I highly recommend and you should try

It could have been wonderful, but this year it was a disaster - it should've been named Muden Open Air instead of Wacken... This area should've been covered with mats to prevent mud formation. Despite it the festival is mint!

A must have for every metallhead, but come prepared because the whole festival become a ankle deep swamp after rain, and it also might happen you have to get towed from the camp site, keep this in mind

The most spectacular and gorgeous rock festival in the world!

Wacken is a mud pit, everything is hard to get to and the staff are rude. I'm barefoot in wacken with no clothes or shoes because they wouldn't let a small bag in. I recommend brutal assault

BRUTAL, BEST FESTIVAL EVER. Their slogan 'RAIN OR SHINE' took full meaning this year, and despide the incredible amount of mud all around the festival and concert sites, the ambiance was amazing and the sound systems potent. The free camping area only provides with portable WC which were not emptied during the week, but people were super clean. Free drinking water on the festival site. No showers,though...

During the last 20 years we have visited Wacken a lot to hear some heavy metal. It is always a lot of fun, but also to some extend a kind of extreme sport. A lot funnier in shine than in rain.

good shows... but the area was terriblel... The company whom got Wacken need to think more about the people than the profits...

The ferry ride across is really nice. My kids really found it fun. The ferry also several clean toilets, which was a total bonus. There is also a small observation deck. Prior to getting on the ferry there is small snackbar, including a small fish n'chips shop at the parking lot before. The downside is the waiting time! The queue is far too long, in summer time expect to wait at least one hour. Another point is the road to and from the ferry is horrible, as it's just regular country and city roads.

Cost 8.50 to take a car + driver , which I think is ok, waiting times can be very long , I had to wait 40 minutes but later in the day it was over 2 hours wait (they usually announce on the website when waitings are over one hour and also on the radio (NDR ) If waitings gets longer, But if you aren't in a hurry and for example as me are heading west from the north this is a nice alternative to going on the A7 and does save quite a few miles. Unfortunately ( for us that travel by car)the que system doesn't apply to motorbikes , when a traveled over about 1/5 of the ferry was filled with bikes that just skip the line , seems to be a accepted fact , so if you are on a bike this route is a fast option

This is a joke. Do not recommend for truck drivers!

Waiting for 3h already, still no Ferry in sight

Was meant to be quicker than driving through Hamburg. But took ages to get to the port driving through endless suburbia just to get to the port, only then to be told a few km from the port that there was a one hour queue, too late to turn around. Won't be making this mistake again- so much for German infrastructure and efficiency!

Insane waiting time - most of the time not worth it. Get some extra ferries. Extra-leckere fish sandwiches at Glückstadt Side. 5 Stars. Expensive. Should be priotizing commuters and people who work at windmill manufacturers. Accept DKK for improved profit.

don’t use it if you’re driving a car! horrible! google suggested it as the fastest route and it is most definitely not. we’ve been waiting for an hour and there’s still a huge line. it’s unbelievable! bad, very bad

Even though it's called a botanical garden there is just a part of it that resembles it, the rest is just a big normal park with picnic spots.

Wonderful. We were there for cherry blossom this year (1st week of May). There are full blossom. One of the beautiful cherry blossom, but underrated. The cherry trees are well maintained, has sitting option, man could take rest there. It just WOW. Recommended. The garden itself also very nice. We have seen lots of new Magnolia flowers trees are planted, near future it will be more attraktive.

Nice and quiet place to take walk.

The place was veryscenic in may.There is a big lake at center.The hiking trails I beieve go deep.We can get lost I felt.There are a wide variety of trees.Saw some goose and some beavrs near the lake.Also spotted some big carps in the water and saw a small rabbit hopping around.

Wow! Just wow! Stunning park with trees from all over the world. Loved how every species has a sign with its name and some information. There are some cafes in the park, although I would recommend to bring some picnic from home since they don't have a wide offer and nothing beats laying on the grass with your own sandwich. Highly recommended to explore and walk around.

I have been here in the winter but the spring experience is even more beautiful. The blooming flowers are so enchanting. There are sitting areas everywhere around, and if you love the grass, there are many mat-friendly area.

Beautiful garden with a lot of flowering plants & trees.It has a very large lake with lovely walks around it .You will always find a bench to sit & enjoy the beauty of the lake. There is also a cafe inside the park.Really had a peaceful time.

I visited Dortmund Zoo on June 20, 2025, during the summer season, and it was a great experience overall. The zoo is conveniently located a short subway ride away from Dortmund’s main railway station, making it easy to reach. The entrance ticket cost €11, which I found quite reasonable for the size of the zoo and the variety it offers. The zoo is spread across a large area and features a wide range of animals from different regions around the world. It was fascinating to see so many species in well-maintained enclosures that reflect their natural habitats. There are several restaurants inside the zoo, offering a variety of food and drinks, so you won’t go hungry during your visit. I also noticed dedicated children’s play areas, which make it a great spot for families with kids. Overall, Dortmund Zoo is a relaxing and educational place to spend a few hours, especially if you enjoy being close to nature and wildlife. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the city.

This zoo is very nice! For €7,50 per adult and free parking in October the price is really low. The majority of people says this zoo is small but I disagree and think this zoo is actually pretty large. A lot of well made habitats, however I do have to agree that some look like they could use a little attention. But this zoo is based on naturalism, so I think it’s fine. A lot of opportunities to see animals from up close and take good photos. Also some (very )special species, like the black jaguar, clouded leopard and red panda. If you want to you can spend the whole day here, there’s enough to watch. Most of the animals are very active, unlike in many other zoo’s where the majority of the animals are sleeping. The only negatives were the constructions, which made it impossible to see some animals. Also, the animal information in mainly only German and mostly cash only payments at food stands. But overall, especially for the price this park is very good! There were also very little people, al though we did visit on a Monday.

It was nice, there was lots of animal. More of birds, different types. It nice to go early if you want enough time.

Nice place for Sunday afternoon. Few spots were under construction. It was a nice experience 😊

Large space. Wide variety of animals. It's not in optimal conditions for them, but it does the job.

I loved this zoo, not too big, but very nice, in the middle of a beautiful park. There are some very interesting animals like tapir, ant-eater and rhinos. All of these just at arm's length. Outside of the zoo there is a n astonishing beautiful botanical garden. Really enjoyed it and recommend

Great value for the price. Did not know what to expect before we went, and was pleasantly surprised by what we got to see for the price ee paid. Sadly some animals were not in their habitat because of construction projects. Disclaimer: don't expect a premium zoo.

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.

Interesting to visit, however the visiting time is very limited and the 2G rule is there although it is outdoor.

(Translated by Google) We found it very nice. Were there on a Saturday and only at 9 p.m., but there was still a lot going on. But we didn't have to wait long. The lights and attractions were beautiful and photo worthy. (Original) Wir fanden es sehr schön. Waren an einem Samstag da und erst um 21 Uhr, dafür war aber noch ordentlich was los. Anstehen mussten wir aber nicht groß. Die Lichter und Attraktionen waren schön und Fotos wert.

(Translated by Google) [03/04/2022] Located at the exhibition center in Essen, the GrugaPark offers many activities in summer and winter. Every year after dusk, the Gruga lights are a colorful and attractive place to visit with many different light installations in shape and color. Always a highlight for photographers. A toilet and stops for eating and drinking are also available. There are several parking lots around the park. Admission is €6.00 ​​for adults. (Original) [04.03.2022] An der Messe in Essen gelegen bietet der GrugaPark im Sommer und Winter viele Aktivitäten. Das Grugaleuchten ist jedes Jahr nach der Dämmerung eine bunte und attraktive Besuchsmöglichkeit mit vielen verschiedenen Lichtinstallationen in Form und Farbe. Für Fotografen immer ein Highlight. Ein WC sowie Stops zum essen und trinken sind auch vorhanden. Rund um den Park gibt es mehrere Parkplätze. Der Eintritt kostet für Erwachsene 6,00 Euro.

(Translated by Google) It was absolutely beautiful. A lot to see. Terrain that is sometimes difficult for older people and yet very dark. But everything worked out. A great attraction for young and old. Price performance top! The physical well-being was also provided in abundance at affordable prices. Toilets clean 👍🏼 Tip: Use the side entrances and book the tickets in advance. Then it's a walk through, the parking lot on the side of the road was SO free. We'd love to come back. (Original) War voll schön. Viel zu sehen. Für ältere Leute teilweise schwieriges Terrain und doch sehr dunkel. Aber hat alles geklappt. Für Groß und Klein ne tolle Attraktion. Preis Leistung top! Für das leibliche Wohl wurde auch reichlich gesorgt zu erschwinglichen Preisen. Toiletten sauber 👍🏼 Tip: Nutzt die Seiteneingänge und bucht die Karten vorab. Dann ist es ein Durchmarsch, auch der Parkplatz war SO am Straßenrand kostenlos. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

(Translated by Google) An event that you have to see if you come from the Ruhr area. We were there on a weekday and got a parking space straight away. We had already booked the tickets (adults €9) online and it was very quick at the entrance. Beautiful light events in different shapes and sizes. A great artist! You can also get mulled wine, coffee and bratwurst if you're slightly hungry. A bratwurst in a bun for €4 is reasonable. It took us about 1 1/2 to 2 hours and it was a nice trip ;-) (Original) Eine Veranstaltung die man gesehen haben muss wenn man aus dem Ruhrgebiet kommt. Wir waren an einem Wochentag dort und haben auch sofort einen Parkplatz bekommen. Die Tickets ( Erwachsene 9€ )hatten wir online schon gebucht und es ging sehr schnell am Eingangsbereich. Wunderschöne Lichtereignisse in verschiedenen Formen und Größen. Ein toller Künstler ! Glühwein, Kaffee und Bratwurst für den kleinen Hunger kann man auch bekommen. Eine Bratwurst im Brötchen für 4€ sind angemessen. Wir benötigten ca 1 1/2 bis 2 Stunden und es war ein schöner Ausflug ;-)

(Translated by Google) I was just blown away, there was a lot on offer and it was very well attended. And the entrance fee is totally justified at 9 euros for an adult. The only drawback is perhaps the search for a parking space. (Original) Ich war nur hin und weg , es wird einen viel geboten und es war auch sehr gut besucht . Und der Eintritt ist total gerechtfertigt mit 9 Euro für einen Erwachsenen . Das einzige Manko ist vielleicht die Parkplatz suche .

(Translated by Google) Beautiful light installations. Really great for 2-3 hours to walk and switch off. I would only recommend this to a limited extent with children. At the end there are lights in a park. There is no interaction to speak of. This probably makes it quickly uninteresting for children. 1 star less because there are no signposts. If you don't know your way around the park, you'll quickly find yourself in front of an exit that's not the one you came in through. That might have to be changed. (Original) Schöne Lichtinstallationen. Für 2-3 Stunden zum spazieren und abschalten wirklich toll. Mit Kindern würde ich das nur eingeschränkt empfehlen. Am Ende sind es Lichter in einem Park. Es gibt keine nennenswerte Interaktion. Das macht es, wahrscheinlich, für Kinder schnell uninteressant. 1 Stern weniger, da es keine Wegweiser gibt. Wenn man sich in dem Park nicht auskennt, steht man mal schnell vor einem Ausgang, der nicht der ist, durch den man rein gekommen ist. Das müsste man vll. ändern.

(Translated by Google) Worth a look, interesting and romantic experience. Definitely go and check it out. Your physical well-being is also taken care of. (Original) Sollte man sich anschauen, interessant und Romantisches Erfahrung. Geht auf jeden Fall hin und schaut es euch an. Für euer leibliches Wohl ist auch gesorgt.

(Translated by Google) Always worth seeing. Very lovingly designed light installations. Dogs are also allowed. The park shines with new lights every year and different themes are implemented. There are always a few installations that stand out and the €7 entry fee is definitely worth it. (Original) Immer wieder sehenswert. Sehr liebevoll gestaltet Lichtinstallationen. Auch Hunde dürfen mit. Der Park erstrahlt jedes Jahr in neuem Lichterglanz und verschiedene Themen werden umgesetzt. Es gibt immer ein paar Installation, die herausstechen und die 7 € Eintritt sind es definitiv wert.

Villa Hügel is an impressive testament to German engineering. The architecture and historical significance as the Krupp family residence are fascinating. A must-visit for anyone interested in technology and history!

A stunning and peaceful place filled with history. Once home to the Krupp family, Villa Hügel impresses with its elegant architecture, grand halls, and beautiful parkland. The exhibitions are well curated and give a deep insight into Germany’s industrial past. A must-visit if you're in the Ruhr area! Amazing place

I would give it a lower rating because there are no explanations in English in the museum, just a small leaflet at the entrance. You also have an app with AR, but only in German, but luckily, I got information beforehand on the internet and I use technology so I can get by, but as a museum, at least add explanations in English for tourists? This is a problem with many German museums. Anyway, the residence and the museum itself are magnificent. The staff is friendly, the park is beautiful. I also watched the TV series about the Krupps, so it was nice to see this in live. A truly magical place. I love history and historical sites and enjoy exploring them around Germany, but many institutions don't seem to care about tourists.

It was nice to visit the residence of this old timey Jeffrey Bezos, the villa and the garden are beautiful. English translations were missing in the exhibitions and most staff were rude - a number of times they shouted at me or my son in German. You can’t get anything to eat except for fries (nice but not fresh) and bratwurst that was very low quality.

This is one of the amazing places in Essen to visit. A beautiful historical building featuring rich pieces of history. The architecture and design are quite unique and breathtaking, making it very worthwhile to spend as much time going to the many various rooms and seeing artwork, classic furniture and many more. The park around the villa is also quite amazing to walk around and take a nice relaxing stroll. There is an entrance fee to the villa but it is very affordable and I would recommend a visit to this historical house. The place is on the other side of the S-Bahn station of Essen-Hügel, and there are signs to get to the villa, so you can’t really miss this fantastic sight.

An amazing home to visit and look around. The grounds around the home are stunning!!

Großeshaus was closed. I only visited the Kleineshaus which is the museum. Museum has only German subtitles which was dissappointing. Museum has 2 floors and the inside is all about the Krupp Family and how they grew their business, their effects on war, their products etc. There is a big garden where you can walk around and enjoy the clean air. The Villa is close to the Baldeneysee and the Hügel Station.

I recently visited Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord and was completely amazed by how an old steel factory was transformed into such a creative and inspiring public space. The combination of industrial ruins, greenery, and open access made it feel like walking through a giant outdoor museum. Climbing up the old blast furnace was a highlight – the view over the Ruhr area is fantastic! I also loved how peaceful it was despite being such a popular spot. The lighting at night is magical and gives the whole park a completely different vibe. This is a perfect spot for photographers, families, history lovers, or just anyone who enjoys exploring unusual places. And it’s free! Highly recommended if you're in the area.

It's a huge public park full of factories, machines, an old railway, a theater and a windmill. It just show you the history of The industrial part of the country. It's a great place for photos and sports since You'll walk a lot and climb many stairs. You can ride a bike or walk your dogs too. There's a small cafe at the entrance and some public bathrooms.

Landschaftspark Duisburg is an amazing place to visit. It is a former industrial site turned into a beautiful park. The old steel structures look impressive, especially when lit up at night. There are many activities like climbing, walking, and exploring the old factory buildings. The park is well-maintained and has great photo spots. It is perfect for families, friends, and photographers. I had a wonderful time and would love to visit again.

One of the most extraordinary things I've visited. You can walk from the bottom right up to the top of one of the blast furnaces, stopping at various levels to see how it worked. The views from the top are incredible. There is no fixed route and we just wandered around, but if you wanted an order to it, start from behind the gas tank and head for the bunkers, where you'll "find" the walkway which takes you along them, to the bottom of the visitable blast furnace. There isn't much signage, but actually that's one of the nice things about this place.

Day is good for if you want to climb up to the top of the factory, night for the light and spooky vibe, the evening is great for the view, i like the iron slide they have for children and adult.

How nice that people turned industrial heritage into cultural future! Nice that one can climb up to the highest point! Good view! Also the cafe is nice to have a drink or eat something...

Lovely place to walk around. There are signs to explain the different structures left from when it was a factory. Sunset from blast furnace #5 is so pretty.
