Schloss-Arkaden Braunschweig
4.3
(17672)
Shopping mall
Schloss-Arkaden Braunschweig is a contemporary mall housed within the facade of an old castle, offering a diverse range of shops and dining options. It is conveniently located close to the train and bus station, making it easily accessible. The shopping center features a mix of big and small shops with varied offerings, as well as ample parking. The historical building with modern architectural interventions provides a unique atmosphere for visitors to enjoy shopping and dining.
Built on the original site of the Brunswick Palace, the shopping centre „Schloss-Arkaden“ looks a castle on the outside and modern on the inside. There are plenty of shops to choose from and there is also a food court. On the weekends and during special events it can be quite full, so finding a carpark can be challenging.

Schloss Arkaden is easily one of the most beautiful malls I’ve ever visited. The reconstructed Brunswick Palace facade is stunning, blending 19th-century grandeur with a bright, modern shopping interior. Walking in feels like stepping into history, but with all the convenience of a contemporary mall.
Inside, there’s a fantastic mix of around 150 shops spread over three floors — from big names like H&M and Saturn to cozy cafes and bakeries for a coffee break. The open, light-filled design makes it a pleasure to explore, and the spacious castle hall is a real centerpiece.
Practicality is on point too: over 1,200 parking spaces, bicycle racks, and excellent tram and bus connections make it easy to get here. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and the atmosphere felt both lively and relaxed. A must-visit if you’re in Braunschweig!
An exclusive mall with premium outlets. Spacious area with good moving place all along. Can access floors from three locations. Paid parking available nearby. Good place to bring kids. They have play zone outside. Main entrance from Schloss end is great.
Very nice
Diverse shops, elegant, nice service.
I bought my shoe there
This is a very nice shopping mall. Since they renewed Rewe on the bottom floor it is even better. There is one thing that brings this place down and that is the fact that the possibilities for changing and toilets for anyone with small children are narrow. There is one small room, it is old and quite dirty compared to the rest of this amazing building. There are also no place for children to play and parents to relax on a long shopping day. Weekends are crazy crowded. This mall needs to be enlarged and more places for children to be created. Many other malls around Europe have those possibilities and it makes life so much easier for a lot of people....not only the parents but also the shopper's who doesn't need to listen to restless kids whining 😉 I really hope they make childrens corners of some kind with changing places, playgrounds etc.
What a place in a small down. Loved it.
Miserable, confusing, a lot of roads and parking lots around. No navigation inside - not a single attempt. And I don't even want to mention the architectural crime of butchering the Residenz.
Unique although not as per expectations.. Happy to get an Indian Restaurant.

Brunswick Palace, also known as Braunschweiger Schloss or Braunschweiger Residenzschloss, has a rich history dating back to the 18th century when it served as the residence for the Dukes of Brunswick. Despite facing destruction and demolition over the years, it was rebuilt in 2007 and now houses a museum and rooftop terrace. The palace stands as a grand monument in Brunswick's schlossplatz and is admired for its stunning architecture.
It was a wonderful visit, as it is located in the city center, and it was the residence of the dukes from 1753 to November 8, 1918.. Within it is the Schloss commercial complex, which contains a wide range of shops such as clothing, food, restaurants, electronics, cosmetics, and perfumes... It is wonderful. If you visit the city of Braunschweig, do not forget to go there and take souvenir photos
Ahmad H — Google review
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.

Points of Interest & Landmarks
Brunswick Cathedral, also known as St. Blasius Cathedral, is a remarkable 12th-century Romanesque architectural gem located in Braunschweig, Germany. Founded by Henry the Lion in 1173 and serving as his final resting place, the cathedral boasts distinctive twin towers and holds significant historical importance in the region's religious and cultural heritage.
A beautiful place in the Center of an incredible Christmas market. An incredible Christmas experience which I would go to again and again.

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.

Performing arts theater
The Staatstheater in Braunschweig is a grand 17th-century venue that hosts plays, concerts, and opera performances. With both indoor and open-air stages, this magnificent theater and opera house has entertained visitors since 1690. Its beautiful architecture is matched by the impressive range of 700 events held annually. From contemporary dance ensembles to literary adaptations to lavish operas, the Staatstheater offers exceptional entertainment.
A very good experience. The building is very distinctive and the staff is very friendly. But be sure to buy your tickets in advance, or the better seats are not available.

Saw Chocolat in German. Excellent actors and the quatuor including account Deon and cello really gave a special atmosphere to the whole play
Pretty architecture and close to lots of greenery. Nice place to sit and relax and close to other things in Braunschweig, like the Schloss. Worth a stop by when exploring the city…
Despite covid restrictions, the theater staff is highly motivated to give you great service. During intermission we were pleasantly surprised to find refreshments on the first floor. A great little cultural escape in Braunschweig.
It’s not far away from home and I really like this place. With our student culture ticket we can just visit it as much as we want. It’s so so good!
A nice and Shiny place to spend an evening and watch a nice theatre! I highly recommend it! ☺️😍
Nice place, variety of events, they have the small-house where they do most of the events because the number of people is relatively small
An exceptional evening at Staatstheater Braunschweig staging Dvorak's opera Rusalka starring Magdalena Hinterdobler! Beautiful voices of beautiful opera singers making particular efforts to the movement! Interesting stage solutions joined to lighting effects emphasizing the sub-modern design of the scene helps the viewer towards a more philosophical understanding of this old legend... with questionning of ethical aspects of our influence on the surrounding world, bioengineering, and so on... It is however a pity that the solution to the ending is too narrowed (almost "Carmen"-like), associating more with series such as "Tatort" and thus reducing the emotional impact of the performance. It is impossible not to note how harmoniously fit into the performance Joska Lehtinen and Ekaterina Kudryavtseva adding extra touch to the meaning of the piece... Our feeling of love, does it give us ownership of the object of love?

Despite some weather-related challenges during certain times of the year, it remains an ideal spot for nature enthusiasts. Conveniently located near the historical center of Braunschweig and free to enter, this garden offers open-air spaces as well as tropical plant-filled greenhouses.

What a lovely garden it was.
Spring would be the best time to visit. I did not expect it to be quite big. Nearly took us 2 hours to roam around.
There was even a tropical and dessert area.
A small waterfall and benches are located everywhere to sit and chill.
Entry is free and is open until 5 pm.
Washroom available.
Can also buy some pots of flowers and herbs.
There were so many varieties of plants, trees and flowers from all over the world.
Well maintained and clean place.
Highly recommended when in Braunschweig.
Gorgeous place, so organized and relaxing!
Best time to visit is in spring
Unfortunately, I visited this place in November, so, many of the plants were not in a good state (look at the pictures), because of the bad weather and cold, but I enjoyed this place.
1. It is not that far from the historical center of Braunschweig. You can easily reach it by foot, as we did.
2. It is free of charge to visit this place.
3. There are an open air space and the greenhouses with tropical plants. They were nice and beautiful
I would definitely go there again in the summer
Botanical garden is located in centre of the city. It’s free for all to visit but sometimes it’s closed due to maintenance work. There are special rooms for tropical plants to see and experience specially when we not live in such climate conditions to see them naturally. One such plant to my Interest I found is called”touch me not” because if you touch this plant then leaves close immediately giving a sign that it’s shy or doesn’t like it. You can watch the video to experience virtually and might motivate you to visit it once
This is a small garden with good number of plant species. Located in a bit residential area. Easily reachable by tram no 3 at Botanical garden stage. A small entrance gate will lead into the garden. Admission ifs free and Monday is holiday.
The Botanical Garden in Braunschweig is one of the most beautiful places in the city. When the temperature exceeds 30 degrees it is the perfect place to spend the afternoon. In every corner of the garden there are benches where you can relax, read books or meet friends and learn together. And true nature lovers will find many interesting plants here.
Very interesting and worth visiting. A number of different plants from all around the world. For a free entry, it's definitely worth visiting

THE ALCOHOL GIANT’S ADVERTISERS
Eintracht Braunschweig revolutionised German football in 1973 as the first club to display a sponsor on their shirts. Although it was allowed in France, Denmark and Austria, it was forbidden in the rest of the footballing world. At least until Eintracht Braunschweig cheated the system.
In 1972, five years after the club’s surprising league victory, Eintracht were suffering financially because of the previous year’s bribery scandal in the Bundesliga. The club needed help and started a collaboration with the alcohol giant Jägermeister: in exchange for sponsorship money, the Braunschweig players would display the company logo. In August 1972, this project was given the thumbs down by the German Football Association, which made Jägermeister’s owner Günter Mast and Eintracht’s chairman Ernst Fricke think again. Advertising on the kit may have been forbidden, but perhaps they could do something with the club crest?
In January 1973, members of the club voted through a proposal that meant that the club’s red lion was exchanged for the stag’s head of Jägermeister. Furthermore the emblem was given a central position on match shirts. The German Football Association was bewildered – and could do nothing because there were no rules concerning club crests. The only thing they could oppose was the size of the crest, which was not allowed to be bigger than 14 cm (5½ inches), so the referee Franz Wengenmayer measured Braunschweig’s emblem when it was first used, on 24 March, 1973,. When the match kicked off, so began a new era in the history of fooball. Seven months later, approval was given for sponsors’ names and logos to appear on match kits in Germany, and clubs including Hamburg, Eintracht Frankfurt, Fortuna Düsseldorf and Duisburg joined Braunschweig. UEFA took another nine years before approving sponsorship on shirts.
CLUB: Braunschweiger Turn- und Sportverein Eintracht von 1895
NICKNAME: Die Löwen (the Lions)
FOUNDED: 1895
STADIUM: Eintracht-Stadion, Braunschweig (23,325 capacity)
HISTORIC PLAYERS: Werner Thamm, Franz Merkhoffer and Paul Breitner
With the Jägermeister brand embedded in the club badge, Eintracht Braunschweig were trailblazers in terms of using the club crest as a means to generate commercial revenue.
Great place. Loved the stadium and the atmosphere.
Nice little stadium . Didn’t serve any beers inside . But great little pub on the corner near the fan shop . Great away day
Small stadium with comfortable seats and great views of the pitch. We got in amd out without Amy issues. Two thumbs 👍 👍 up

Ordered pickup, went at allocated time but still waited for food. Food was fresh and tasty, no cutlery provided though and none at our hotel made it hard to eat. But overall was good!
Todd A — Google review
The restaurant is located in the old city center next to the castle and cathedral. If you are doing an old city toor this would be a place to stop by and enjoy excellent food and wine. I ate my dinner before writing this review and making photos, so just trust me, it was looking good and very tasty. But here is the desert, which was also excellent. The stuff is very friendly, food is made and served quite fast. Greatly recommend this place.
Wonderful old restaurant in the old City with excelent food.
It is a very renowned restaurant that is right next to the Lion statue square and the famous cathedral. The entire square is visible from it's windows outside. The food is good. Their choice of white and red wine is also good. There a few options available for vegetarians which is a relief. The restaurant is disabled friendly.
A function room was booked for my father's 70th birthday here. Relatives had been invited from all over the world to dine.
Two days before , only when checking all was ready, the restaurant stated they had double booked and this is just what happens. No apology or empathy. Terrible management , booking system and service. Be careful.
Classic Italian, hardly adapted to German taste (good thing). Very tastefully used 1900's decor. Pleasant service, not too cordial (also good).
Totally amazing!

Alix S — Google review
I was there with my daughter for the first time. I chose the BBQ burger and my daughter took the Cheeseburger. We also took fries plus ketchup and mayonnaise on the side and we took drinks of course. It's the worst burger we've ever eaten, especially the cheese it tasted like plastic, the fries were hard and not fresh at all. The meat was not good. I think everything didn't taste fresh even vegetables. The food was not worth the money I paid. We left the food on the plate. The woman who took the order and the payment was nice that's why I gave one star.
Very nice food good decent portions.
There is something for everyone even vegatarian food.
Only waited 30 min for the food to come..
Note: this place is inside the mall. Not easily accessible unless you plan to visit the mall. Also parking was expensive. 3euro for one hour. With that said I visited for the breakfast and ended up buying the buffet. I really wanted to try the pancakes and they did not disappoint. The buffet is ok, nothing special but unlimited pancakes and coffee is nice, although probably on the expensive side. My waitress wasn’t very attentive. I got my coffee well after the food arrived. I kept asking her for things that should have been taken care of from the start. Since it’s located in the mall it’s not the best atmosphere but not too bad. I would visit again!
Send extra meal without notice , food is also bad , precooked
Decent service. Horrible food, overcooked meat and generally bland food, nothing standing out, everything sub-par. A waitress served our drinks and spilled 2 cokes and a water all over us, happens, helped us clean etc., but we were still charged full price for everything, in such a case i think they ought to serve at least thw drinks on the house, considering how much they spilled all over our clothes, shoes etc. Would not recommend.
Nice staff, good quality.
Enough place to sit, and can watch football here.
Payment with cash and card are possible.
They are not accepting new customers around 7 pm.
Totally overrated. The food was dry. Not awful but nothing special. Burger King would be a better option.

A nice Asia / Vietnamese Restaurant in the Heart of the City. I tasted crunchy Mango Curry Chicken, it was very delicious and it was a good Deal for it's price!
The service was friendly and very quick.
Wheez-E — Google review
There was no issue other than a bit of slowness; the food was delicious. We had to wait and call the waiter a few times to place our order. It was a bit challenging to communicate with the non-English-speaking waitstaff. Instead of them trying to understand us, we had to try to understand them. We discovered the place during a tourist visit. Nevertheless, it was a positive experience.
I ordered the red curry with chicken, and I was pleasantly surprised by its rich, delicious flavor. The portion was very generous, making it great value for the price. While the service was a bit slow in taking my order, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere and a spacious layout, making it a comfortable place to dine. I’ll definitely be back!
Went in and immediately got seated, food was amazing. The servers were extremely nice and helpful. This is one of the best Asian places I've eaten at since a long time! 5★
Nem Grill offers a lovely escape with warm lighting, pops of color, and a casual vibe. They even have outdoor seating, perfect for sunny days!
The menu boasts a wide range of Vietnamese dishes. The pho was phenomenal - rich broth, perfectly cooked noodles, and melt-in-your-mouth meat. However, the mango chicken curry, while beautifully presented, lacked depth in flavor.
While some dishes might be milder, the friendly staff is happy to add spice with chilies or their house-made sauce. With its variety and focus on fresh ingredients, Nem Grill is a great choice for exploring Vietnamese cuisine. I'll be back to try more!
Our favorite viet restaurant in Braunschweig and honestly one of our absolute favorite places to eat when we’re hungry, fast service, good atmosphere, big portions and reasonable prices… summer rolls and rice dishes are our favs, sushi is excellent and pho is to die for! Highly recommended!
The worst service ever. The last two times I have been there, it took about an hour for us the get our food and they delivered both time the wrong order! Food were okay, however for that price, you can eat in a better place. Atmosphere was more like eating at School Cafeteria than a Restaurant due to crowd and arrangement of the tables
Very decent place to grab a quick meal. Food is perfectly fine, is at your table rather quickly and tastes very well! One of the best places in Braunschweig to grab some quick dinner.

Lorena S — Google review
The ambiance was beautiful and the staff were friendly. We felt the price was on the higher end for the food we ordered; not worth the money. It was a decent experience.
Basic Sushi defines the quality, defenetly delicious, friendly staff and very nice outdoor seating. Worth a visit but on the edge to be overpriced. Miso soup was ok and the fish tasted fresh, I would try something new next time to see if it can get another star...
Very disappointing experience. For the price - quality is far from being even good, while it must be excellent. Rice on sushi was falling apart from the roll, miso soup was not that tasty.
Unfortunately there are no labelled vegan dishes, but if you ask they're happy to help! I was able to get the fried vegetable udon veganised and my friend the veggie sushi platter. The udon were really yummy and savory, i think some sort of tofu or edamame beans would be a great addition. The sushi was also lovely and the avocado was perfect.
We had a table at 10pm Friday night and it was busy until 11, when it emptied out. So definitely reserve, it was no problem online.
Friendly staff but prices are high compared to taste of food. We ordered 2 person Sushi and soup.
4.5*. One of the top Japanese restaurants in town (and, unlike my favorite, accepting credit cards). Very good to excellent food for the price, and service to match. Be sure to request your preferred seating area though (excellent ambiance in the back), last time we were seated in the front which apparently still counts as part of the "main area" when reserving but which is significantly less nice.
I love the feeling of happiness that a tasty meal provokes and MONO has done it again. Great dinning experience.

Day 2
Northeast side of town
For day 2, we recommend exploring the northeast side side of town. Start the day off with BraWo Park Shopping Center GmbH, then wind down and take it easy by the time you get to Schlossmuseum Braunschweig. All together, your day would be filled with about 7 hours of non-stop fun.

Not much stores, better to visit schloss arcaden
Modern facility with plenty of parking (free of charge if you buy something at the stores) and a good mix of stores for daily use and food outlets for a quick bite. Usually clean restrooms, though they struggle with vandalism (unfortunately). A bit surprising: Drive-in ATM at the parking entrance, not in the building.
Small collection of shops and restaurants, plenty of car parking space. Pretty quiet but great if you only need to purchase a few items.
Plenty of parking mall with the biggest Edeka of the city inside along with DM, a nail shop, toy store for kids, different cuisines restaurants. and more. Remember to keep the receipt from Edeka to offset the parking fee.
Very good place to shopping IT items
The mall is quite organised, and disposes of not many stores, but all are very big and well equipped. A great point of the mall is the free public toilet, something not so usual in German stores and malls. The restaurants available are all classy and delicious. It also counts with a huge Edeka supermarket, so very nice.
The large supermarket has a huge variety of different makes of the same stuff. There are hardly any special fruit spreads, but strawberry, peach, apricot, raspberry by almost all notable manufacturers. Save for vodaphone, all other shops feel low key. The restaurants are fine if a bit pricy except the Asian place which I find to be of good quality for your money. The centre itself looks great, if you like that sort of architecture.

The Herzog Anton Ulrich Museum in Braunschweig, Germany, is a treasure trove of Renaissance and Baroque art collected by Anthony Ulrich, Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel. Established in 1754, it holds an impressive array of northern European art from the 16th and 17th centuries, featuring works by renowned artists such as Albrecht Durer, Rembrandt, Vermeer, and more.
Huge museum, make sure to come early because we ended up staying for four hours!
So many beautiful art to look at and enjoy.

Lovely collection of everything from everywhere. The museum by itself is in a very good condition, I mostly did like the sculptures, some of the paintings are quite interesting to look at. The overall presented collection is good, but not extremely amazing.
The museum itself is really nice, collection of paintings was well organized and quite impressive. We didn’t have a chance to finish our tour because we were quite rudely pushed out of the museum when it was 17.45 (museum closes at 6pm), some particular worker insisted on us leaving. I mean, I know it’s a museum, but being used to visiting some famous museums, I was quite surprised by this attitude (and a bit of rushed closing procedure). If you really like good art and happened to be in Braunschweig - definitely worth a visit, but I wouldn’t travel here specifically for this museum as we did.
What an amazing place. It is packed full of the most wonderful paintings, sculptures and ceramics. This is just one example of the beautiful paintings. I was not aware of the history of this town but the collection gives any big city gallery a run for its money in quality and size of the collection. A fantastic find and a must go to if you like this type of thing. The gallery was very quiet no fighting to get to see pictures like you sometimes have to in big city galleries. The staff were very helpful and very knowledgeable wanting to share information with us.
One of the must see sites in Brunswick. We enjoyed the paintings of the masters of the German, Italian and Flemish schools of painting during the Renaissance. Many of the paintings are accompanied by a soundtrack, which creates a unique and pleasant effect.
Great Museum, nice atmosphere, not too crowded, great staff and amazing shop!
A really top notch Gemäldegalerie, Schwerpunkt baroque so if you like that you’re in luck, but overall a fabulous collection with some thrilling pieces by Strozzi, Spranger, Bassano, Vouet, Tintoretto, Veronese, Fiorentino, van Heemskerk... I could go on and on! Aside from the paintings the museum itself has had an immaculate renovation and really shines. Bonus: I had the museum essentially to myself for the first four hours it was open, a really sacred experience. Go to Braunschweig JUST to see this. Go tomorrow.
The museum has a nice paintings collection (xv - xviii century) with a few astounding pieces (Vermeer, Rembrandt, Rubens, Giorgione, Tintoretto, Holbein, Cranach) and a free informative booklet about the collection but it is in urgent need of a new light concept because at the moment it really doesn't work: reflections, shadows, etc. don't allow you to appreciate many of the exhibits.
The sculpture and applied art is the true surprise though: very rich and good organized.
Overall absolutely worth a visit.

This unique architectural masterpiece consists of nine interconnected blocks and features a facade covered in colorful cartoons depicting cheerful faces, stars, and hearts.
Very unique and mind blowing building. It is very cute with alot of colours and worth to visit once (once is enough okay😆)

Surprised by the buildings.
Such a great work of art. Honestly, we saw multiple artistic things in the city but this caught my attention.
They were renovated and created like this. Very unique and attractive designs.
Must visit tourist attractions!!
Interesting and striking modern house with colourful pop-art covering it. Radically different to the surrounding buildings and worth a stop by as it’s between the Schloss and St Magni Church…
Very beautiful building to take good photos
name says it all, Happy Rizzi house, great place for happy and funny pictures.
It's quite interesting to look at!
An eye catching construction in the old city of Braunschweig.

Castle
Schlossmuseum Braunschweig is a reconstructed historic palace with a Neoclassical exterior and a museum showcasing furniture, paintings, and the lifestyle of the House of Welf. The museum, located in the reconstructed first floor of the northern wing, offers an authentic glimpse into the personalities of the dukes of Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel and their families through original art and furniture displays. Visitors can enjoy free entry until September and avail themselves of a complimentary audioguide.
Truly lovely place and well worth a visit for people interested in history. Located in the Schloss at the left hand side, it’s free to enter until the end of September and also a free audioguide. They ask if you have your own earphones but if not they can give you some.
The museum itself is not that big, only a few rooms. Lots of information and the audioguide is very informative. There’s information on the Schloss history with an interesting documentary in both German and English, and the audioguide explains the history of all the artwork and rooms. It’s interesting to learn about the various Dukes of Brunswick, and when learning about the last Duke; Ernst August, I strongly recommend listening to the interview of his wife, Victoria Louise. The story of what happened in 1918, first hand from the Duchess and only daughter of Kaiser Wilhelm II is fascinating.
There are about three or so recreated rooms with original furniture and artwork which are very pretty, culminating in the magnificent throne room. The throne room is a beautiful, though smaller recreation of the west original, but the throne itself is original. Fascinating to learn about the history and detail of the furniture and artwork, this is where the audioguide comes in handy.
As some other reviews have mentioned, the staff inside are very friendly and helpful. The lovely lady at the front desk explained exactly how to move through the museum and even pointed me in the direction of the Quadriga. Truly professional good at their job, they are an asset to the museum and make visitors feel very welcome!

Limited viewing to four rooms, furnished in style. The entire building was demolished after WW II and rebuilt.
Some history of the original building and grounds as they were in the early 18th century. Another section is dedicated to the last duchess that lived there before the war: Princess Louise Victoria daughter of Wilhelm II is highlighted in interviews with people who knew her.
Worth a visit - lots of background knowledge and especially the throne room was very impressive
The Museum was good, but the behavior of the woman behind the desk near of door of Museum, was not good and that was very weak. I came from England for tour to Germany but, unfortunately it was a bad memorie for me. I am so sorry , but it's the reality.
A pretty and affordable place to overview the citiy from above and get the rhythm of the area, guarded by the goddess and the lions beside her. I highly recommend the 2-euro visit to the roof.
Free entry till September. Bring your earphones if you want to listen to English audio. Interesting history and reconstruction.
Nice building. It has a story, and is also being used very well. It is still maintaining authenticity.
Museum was free not too big but quite nice. Definitely visit

Worst experience from this restaurant and I will never come back. Poor service from the waiters. I had to keep getting the attention of my waiter to place my order. Eventually when I did order, I ordered a Thai curry which was served to me very salty and there was no coconut milk in it. The gravy was very thick. Eventually when I got the attention of my waitress , she asked me how was the food and I told her I could not eat it as it is too salty. She just said sorry. So I asked for a box and my bill as I needed to leave, to take the food away (I was going to add my own cream to it).
She gave me a box and put the food inside however, they donot provide bags to keep the leftovers in. She also did not bring the bill and I needed to leave. As I was waking up to pay the bill, the food fell on my brand new white sneakers.
I asked to speak to the manager and I was told that there's no one available. The service was really poor , i had to pay full price for a meal that I barely ate and I did not get a replacement or a proper apology. Totally disgusted.
The tables and floors were also quite dirty.
I´ve been the first one in the morning for breakfast. The food is really good, but the table, the chair and the floor were very dirty. So nobody cleaned this since yesterday. That is no place for me to feel good, even if the food is tasty. You never know how dirty the kitchen is, when you see the degree of cleanliness outside...
Perfect place for a Feierabend bier. They have Duckstein! And a heating outside. It's very central and there's plenty of place to sit. Also good to work, there's access to Wifi.
My previous visit was fine. The buffet line was okay, not as good as before the Pandora but understandable. Staff service depends really on their mood, some of them are friendly and some of them acted as if you beg them for a free meal..
I am there even when i am broke , really good food and drinks collection. The service is top notch

Kevin K — Google review
An agreeable, relaxing place to have breakfast or a morning coffee. Ideal for that splendid German invention, the "second breakfast": pleasantly breaks up that morning trip into town. And it's dog-friendly, too.
Two things I didn't care for.
Vegan "bacon" is not for me, an irredeemably peculiar flavour reminiscent, to my palate, of burning tyres. Otherwise though the food is fine, and the Vietnamese drip-coffee excellent.
If you pay with a foreign card, their bank's card-machine levies an automatic handling charge (which does not, it should be noted, go to the café). Didn't like that either.
These grumbles aside, The Makery gets a thumbs up.
One of the best cafes in town. Can get a bit busy but is still cozy. You can find delicious cakes, breakfast and special drinks you won’t find anywhere else. I love it!
super rich taste of cream cheese and cinnamon in the mouth, very delicious! The price is also affordable. There are a variety of cakes in the restaurant, and the service attitude is also very good.
Visited Makery for a breakfast on the busy weekend and got a free table luckily as a people walked in exactly after us had to go it was full. So may be reservation is a must.
Went with a buffet breakfast, though the prices are tad bit high (47 for two) - quality of the food is top notch.
The breads, the vegan beetroot spread, meat options, cheese variety, fresh fruits, decadent chocolate brownies, and tea - everything was high standard and a courteous and pleasant staff made the overall experience even better.
As for the weekend, it was buzzing with a crowd and Energy all around us.
Would visit again next time.
The place looks nice and is well located, but what a disappointment… Prices are really excessive compared to the limited selection. What shocked me the most: the espresso is charged extra, because the included coffee is filter only. Honestly, never seen that anywhere else!
And to make matters worse, even though I’m not vegan, you still have to pay a surcharge for certain options, even though the place is already 100% vegetarian. What a joke… It really feels like everything is designed to inflate the bill without offering the quality or variety to match.
In the end, the experience is not worth the price. Too bad, because the concept had potential, but I won’t be coming back.
A perfect place to relax at Braunschweig. The cafe is simple and lovely. They offer outside and indoor seating. I tried their chocolate cheesecake (5 euros) and iced macchiato (3.5 euros). The service lady was really sweet.
Chocolate cheesecake: 4.5/5
Iced macchiato: 3.5/5
I would definitely come there again .
Makery is just great, the staff is super friendly, their coffee choices are vast and delicious plus their waffles and cake choices are yummy. I can totally recommend this place although you have to be lucky to get a table. I suggest you either give them a call before you get there or be flexible with the table offering. The interieur is amazing, too. As a student you can study here for hours :)

Really Perfect!!
The menu does not have a very wide range of options but the quality of meals are really good.
Most of the time the meats are not so tasty and not get good marrinated but here the meats prepared very well and have a very good taste.
The location of restaurant is so nice, close to main station with parking and can say eating food close to sky.
The last important thing is the staff behaviour which was so nice, supportive and helpful. They speak english well and will support you during the time there.
At the end bill can be paid by Cash and Card.

The former chef was Tim Mälzer and since ownership change the menu is changed a bit with no big difference. Variety of wine and alcohol is big and dishes are within star cook range. Last but not least view of the restaurant is top.
We called ahead to book a table for my mother’s 70th birthday, specifically requesting the best view for the occasion. The waiter assured us it was arranged. Upon arrival, the “manager” Bastian informed us the only option was a high bar table by the entrance, facing the noisy open kitchen — nothing like what was promised. When I reminded him of our booking and the special request, he dismissed it, blamed the staff, and acted as though no note had been made.
Completely unacceptable. We walked out and found a much better restaurant that actually valued its guests.
I had to cut 2 stars for the food, it wasn’t yummy at all. Otherwise the ambience is really good, the team is also amazing. Their hospitality was really good, friendly, respectful, in time, very polite and helpful. They allowed me to choose table and i could reserve a place an hour before visiting. Food looked beautiful as well, just if it was yummy as well. It would have been a 5 star experience. Looking forward to going again and ordering something else, maybe till then they read my review and do whats needed.
Honestly a maximum 5/10. Got seated at the bar first for an apéritif before our table was ready but took ages for them to take the order so ended up having the drinks at the table. Service was kind of sloppy and food was just okay. The bread was dry and the french salted butter wasn’t even salted, and also served too cold to even manipulate. The noodles were too heavy to eat and the sauce was too much. Lots of room for improvement definitely.
5 star location with tastefully chosen interiors and fantastic views across the city and its surroundings, 5 stars for kindness of staff, 4..5 stars for taste of food put up, 3..4 stars for creativity of dishes on offer, 4 stars for price value ratio, 2..5 stars for training level of staff.
They offer 2 seatings, 1st seating is limited to 2 hours, 2nd is unlimited. No reservation of "tables with a view" on offer.
Place to be avoided . Despicable experience .
I showed up at 19:12 p.m without a reservation as I’m alone . They tell me « sorry no place , all booked » . I went to the toilet and I checked online that if there is indeed no tables anymore …. And… surprise , 6 tables available ! I therefore booked online for 19:30 . I show up again at 19:19 with my reservation , and here out of a sudden, confusion …. « Ah some people canceled we are sorry » adding « that’s normal business » … when I told him that I find it very weird … he was about to « kick me out » . Ridiculous don’t kill thank god …. Message to the restaurant : the customer experience is not only having a nice high end place and nice food . It is most certainly taking care of your customers . Last time I spent my money there
Very friendly and professional service, extremely tasty food, and an overall nice atmosphere.

Meat was on point in four different orders, entrees and Salat very fresh and soft, and the main course was amazing: Scottish beef. Overall a 5/5 experience if not more.

The steak is juicy and greatly made as was requested. Also loved how nicely they „maintain“ the look of the steak. Surely recommend.
It was ok. Nothing extraordinary, nothing bad.
Edit after owner answer:
I would prefer more options, more meat cuts to be available, for example I did not find Tomahawk.
Roasting was not perfect on one of my visits, I asked medium and it was a little more than medium towards well.
Also the taste was ok, but not the best I've tasted.
Menu in English was very helpful. Had an American burger with fries and in the 3 months I've been travelling around Europe, this burger was the best.
If you're in Braunschweig this is a must visit for top notch food.
as usual… friendly staff, fast service and good food 👍🥩 also, in love with the restaurant’s warm vibe. a perfect visit during this cold winter time.

ZOO BRAUNSCHWEIG "Noah's Ark" Uwe Wilhelm GmbH is a compact zoo that has been redesigned to provide its animals with more space. While it may have fewer species than larger city zoos, the 50 different species housed here, including cheetahs, Siberian tigers, South American bears, barbary apes and Golden-headed lion tamarins live in near-natural enclosures.
I really liked the zoo its not too big and its very clean and the animals are well taken care of
Sara D — Google review
Love this zoo!! The animals are very friendly and looks so happy and well taken care of! Love the fact that you can buy food at the zoo and feed to some of the animals, perfect for kids and animal lovers in general! Definitely worth a visit! Next time we’re in the area again, we will pay this zoo a visit again!
Half of the animals can be fed. enclosures look voluptuous and designed according to tastes of f the residents, plenty of dog visitors. You get a bag of treats with your ticket
Wonderful Zoo. Territory is not so big, but very green with a lot of shadow. Which is extremely helpful in hot day with more than 30° temperature outside. Interesting birds and animals, some of them people can be touched. They have a lot of places where people can sit and rest. Two playing yards for children. Places where people can eat. So very good and comfortable place where people can spend time with their children, friends, family or other.
A very good place to hang out if you like animals. It is the best when you are looking for a place to spend a Sunday afternoon, with your family and especially kids. The variety is pretty good and some animals are pretty unique. If you just want to take a quick tour of the place, it takes around 1 to 1.5 hours depending on you. If you come with your kids, there are loads of recreational activities for them. Overall, it was a very good visit and a fun experience!
I just visited a week or so ago from Florida (I have family who live in Braunschweig), and found that the place was well shaded, and beautifully landscaped. The dining areas and restrooms were kept clean. There's lots of fun play areas for the kids. I hope to go for another visit on a future trip to Braunschweig.
The first time that I sawthe name "Arc Noah",I thought I found a big Zoo with different kind of wild animals. But here is not so big and there is a limited amount of Animals. The worst point for the zoo is absebce of Lion in the city where mostly used Lion as a symbol.
On the otherhand, allowance of feeding camels and others is so interesting. Have close contact with goats and sheeps also is so wonderful exprience.
Eating option is also limited.
Small and green with plenty for young kids to do and happy-looking tigers, cheetahs, raccoons and chipmunks. We brought a 2 1/2 year old on a beautiful fall day and had a great time. Plenty of places for adults to relax and enjoy a coffee or snack as well.

The Braunschweiger Löwe, also known as the Brunswick Lion, is a significant symbol of the city with deep historical roots. Originally commissioned by Duke Heinrich der Lo in 1166 to represent his power and presence, this iconic statue stands as a testament to the rich history of Braunschweig. Despite being heavily damaged during World War II, visitors can still admire a replica of the lion on Burgplatz and explore its significance at Dankwarderode Castle.
This is a beautiful square, with a lot of historical meaning. A must see in Braunschweig

Cool statue in a nice area
Beautiful historical landmark.
This is where the lion is. (Braunschweig is a lion city)
In the heart of history. A great square which breathes history. Given that Braunschweig was heavily destroyed during WW2 it is really amazing that we are able to admire these fine monuments again.
The atmosphere of this (among many others) magic place is simply amazing. You can feel the good history here. Old Braunschweig at it's finest ! 👍
It's a very amazing and happening place. Saturday's are crowdy but vibrant
Interesting bit of history and an ideal place to arrange to meet people of you're a stranger in town.

A nice place to take a walk and eat :)
Very beautiful zone and you can eat so many things around this place
Nice plaza. If you don't know German, don't expect to understand what is it about, as all the information panels are written in German language.
I went there on Saturday, Service was a bit slow. Food was average but costly.
Nice place.
Amazing food!

It pains me to have to do this, but the most recent meal I had at the Steg-Haus was so downright appalling, I cannot in all conscience any longer recommend it.
In November 2021 I wrote: "Worth visiting for a pleasant night out, this [is an] attractive riverside restaurant on the edge of Braunschweig's central district... It's the first time I've seen Coq Au Vin on a restaurant menu in three decades. And how lovely it was to be reacquainted with an excellent example of this long-forgotten staple. A good quality corn-fed bird cooked in a properly rich and winey sauce..." I gave it an appreciative three stars.
How things have changed - for the worse.
I am sad to report that the Steg-Haus's deeply unimaginative summer menu dispenses with any such item. It's all grill stuff: steaks and burgers and Caesar salads with the odd bit of chicken or vegetarian platter thrown in. Dull, dull, and for the life of me I don't know what makes this heavy fare any more "seasonal" than what was on offer before. In fact there's a marked absence of seasonal produce.
Still, we'd booked; but we ended up very much wishing we hadn't.
The tapas starter we shared was passable, but after that everything was awful. Not least because everything arrived at the table barely lukewarm -- even the fried onions, hideously!
My rib eye steak was dreadful, overcooked way beyond what I had asked for, and with a streak of gristle running through it. And cold. My baked potato was, paradoxically, only just "done", instead of steaming and fluffy as it should be. And cold. My wife's burger was cold. Ditto her chips (pommes) - cold.
Of course, I ate the steak, gristle and all. I was hungry. I didn't finish the potato. The only bit I enjoyed was the corn on the cob.
This was one of the worst meals out I have recently endured. Sorry, but there it is.
And it'll take a lot to get me back in there. Which is a great shame.
Extremely well placed restaurant, with a stunning view on the river below, this hidden gem of Braunschweig should definitely be visited on the warm summer evenings. The only reason it gets 4 stars and not 5 is that the serving took quite a long time (not their fault, they had to go up and down the stairs a lot)
Very nice and fancy location! The food is good, we had tapas and the Phils Beer which was really tasty!
The price is ok if take into consideration that you pay for the service etc as well.
Nice river view, but the vegetarian burger is a complete disappointment.. Would you guys pay fifteen euros for an extra-slim burger without a patty?
Food was delicious, it took a while to prepare it but im sure it was because we were around 70 people there.
Beautiful atmosphere, wonderful location, delicious food, amazing service, child friendly, what more can I say?!
We will definitely be back!
Delicious food and great service. Would definitely recommend for an upscale meal or a special occasion!

Schloss Richmond, commissioned by Duke Charles William Ferdinand in 1768 as a residence for his wife Princess Augusta, is situated on the banks of the Oker River. Named after her childhood home in London, the castle boasts an impressive exterior with a curved avant corps, Corinthian pilasters, and pediments crowned by a balustrade. Today, it serves as a private residence but offers tours of its state rooms upon prior arrangement.

The cakes here are delicious. They also have various types of cookies and baked goods. The chocolate cake is simply wow! The staff is really polite and the service was quick.
Fantastic food, Not just awesome to look at but also very tasty. This applies not only to the breakfast option, but also to the cakes and sweets. The cafe is decorated neatly, everything is clean, the service friendly. Also, the prices are very decent!
There are a lot of cake options. As always, I tried the carrot cake first. It is not heavy butter cheese. It feels refreshing with the addition of fresh cream. The price is so affordable that I am surprised.
One of the worst services I ever had in my life. We stayed one hour in the place and haven’t eat anything, since they delayed 20 minutes to approach us to the order and in 40 minutes couldn’t bring the breakfasts. The only thing that came to us were the coffees and the sugaries we ordered. They also didn’t pay attention to us the whole time we were there. Terrible, don’t go.
The best cake Shop in town. We always book the birthday cake here. It Tastes very good and is always made the way we describe it. Try to book it in advance. Kids will love it.
One of the best places on Braunschweig if like cakes.
Small Café. Great selection of savory and sweet pastries, tartes and cake.
A lot of vegan cakes as well. Lovely service and fair prices. Highly recommended.

Nestled in the heart of Braunschweig, Ristorante Il Sorriso is a modern dining gem that invites you to indulge in authentic Italian cuisine. With a charming terrace perfect for al fresco dining, this restaurant offers an array of classic dishes ranging from delectable antipasti and fresh pasta to crispy pizzas. It's not just about traditional fare; vegetarians and health-conscious diners will find plenty of delightful options as well.
It was so good I didn't even think about taking pictures. :)
The place is in the city centre, it's classy, cozy and very pleasant. The staff is amazingly friendly - even with the full restaurant, they still take time to explain offer, they are nice to you and smile. A lot of restaurants should follow their example.
They have a wide range of meals, for me - gluten free person - this place is a heaven! They offer gluten free pasta and pizza and they automatically bring you a gluten free bruschetta as an appetizer. It melted my heart, seriously.
Last but not least, the meals are delicious! We went twice, therefore I tried both pasta and pizza and I don't remember the last time I was so happy about food. Wine is great as well.
I strongly recommend this place to everyone, not only GF people.

Food Quality: in general i would say quite good. Some dishes were not as good as expected, but decent food.
Portions: good quantity of food. I was full before the main course.
Drinks: plenty of options from soft-drinks, beer, wine, cocktails, to the typical hot beverages such as tea and coffee
Price: $$$-$$$$ very expensive in some items that are not supposed to be. Pizzas and drinks too expensive, and main dishes also a bit over priced.
Service: very friendly and always ready to assist. The food was quite slow to come out, but i would like to believe it was due to us being in a large group.
Atmosphere: big restaurant. Good for meeting people in groups and celebrations.
Highlights: good food.
Things to improve: prices definitely too high.
Payment Method: cash, cc
It was a nice and calm location to have dinner. The restaurant was not crowded and there was ample seatings for a drop in. We went during the weekday, but I have seen it a little crowded over the weekend. Reservations recommended, if over a weekend. The dishes and the service was good. A good experience. The only disappointment was the risotto was too salty for my taste buds, not sure if it is always prepared as salty.
We preferred Christmas menu but acc to me not very good idea to mix 3 tastes.
I especially enjoyed the egg plant rolls with sheep cheese
Good restaurant, food is really nice. Cons: no English friendly, if you go there you need to talk either German or Italian to be able to understand the menu. Thought, I have to admit the people there will try to help you with English language
Amazing food.. friendly staff and quick service. Loved the place!
Excellent Lasgna and cocktails

Title: A Taste of Italy's Finest: Gnocchis and Perfectly Crafted Coffee!
Review:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Stars
Today i had the pleasure of eating at this incredible Italian restaurant, and I must say, it was an absolute delight! From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a cozy atmosphere that instantly transported me to the heart of Italy.
Let's talk about the star of the show: the gnocchis. Oh my goodness! They were nothing short of phenomenal. Each delicate morsel melted in my mouth, revealing a perfect balance of softness and slight chewiness. The accompanying sauce was a masterpiece in itself, bursting with rich flavors that danced on my taste buds. It was evident that the chef had put their heart and soul into crafting this culinary marvel.
As a coffee aficionado, I am always on the lookout for the perfect cup of joe, and this restaurant exceeded all expectations. The barista's expertise was evident in every sip of the perfectly crafted coffee I enjoyed after my meal. The aroma alone was intoxicating, and the taste was nothing short of exceptional. It was smooth, robust, and had just the right amount of acidity. I couldn't have asked for a better way to end my dining experience.
Beyond the delectable food and drink, the staff at this restaurant were attentive and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the menu, offering valuable suggestions based on their expertise. Their genuine passion for the cuisine and dedication to providing exceptional service made my visit truly memorable.
The ambiance of the restaurant added to the overall experience. Soft, dimmed lighting, tasteful decor, and soothing background Italian music created an intimate and romantic setting. It was the perfect place for a cozy dinner or a relaxed evening with friends and family.
I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Whether you're a food enthusiast, a lover of Italian cuisine, or simply looking for a memorable dining experience, this establishment will undoubtedly leave you satisfied. Don't miss the opportunity to savor their heavenly gnocchis and indulge in their meticulously prepared coffee. It's a gastronomic journey that you won't soon forget.
We come back next week !

A cosy Italian restaurant offering quality food. The buffalo mozzarella starter and the chocolate lava cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream really stood out! I expected a bit more from the saffron lachs (or salmon fish) which didn’t have any notable note of saffron. The accompanying vegetables were quite oily and were a little bit oversalted. The presentation itself could have been better too. All in all, it was a good experience.
Nice Italian restaurant with great atmosphere and probably the best Italian restaurant in Braunschweig! It’s a very quite location and can be recommended for business and private events.
The quality of the food is really good although the portions could be slightly bigger (that’s why we only give 4 stars) the wine and grappa selection is really good, too.
The staff is very friendly and competent.
I was not totally sold, the pasta was not what I expected, maybe I can be more specific with not to much al dente... I would give it another try just to see if I would rate higher. I had better Tiramisu. Cozy place though for romance... #insta.na.da
Great food recommended by work colleague. Extremely authentic cuisine.

The park features a lake, an allotment garden, playgrounds, sports center, and plenty of benches for relaxation. Visitors can also rent canoes or frisbees to explore the park in unique ways.
One of the best place in the city to relax after a long day of work.. you can feel very close to nature and a water cannel run through it which adds up to the beauty of the park.

Lush green park very peaceful and beautiful
Quiet and big park for spending time with family or friends!!
Very calm place to walk alone and process one’s thoughts!! 😊😊
Looks beautiful in early Autumn and Spring
This park is very close to the Braunschweig railway station. It is a very big and beautiful park with lots of garden seatings, exercise equipments, kids play areas. Often you see people jogging, cycling, walking, BBQ-ing, kayaking etc, making it a multi-purpose wholesome recreational park. It has so many landscape elements, and I never get tired of going there.
This is an attractive city park with paths weaving between the River Oker and plenty of trees and green spaces. It's a great place for dog walking. There is a lake, and a folly. Benches are scattered at pleasant vantage points. Blossom and daffodils bloom in Spring. There are some handsomely mature maple and horse-chestnut trees. Ducks, geese, heron, woodpeckers and even, sometimes, more exotic birds of passage abound. At least one pair of honey buzzards visits during the warmer months. There are coypu and fish in the river. The city council in its infinite wisdom has also installed a "Disc Golf" course throughout, which is a sort of cross between golf and frisbee, but it's not too intrusive.
Storms in recent years have felled a few of the trees, but Bürger Park is an attractive and delightfully peaceful place.
Dogs must be on a leash.
Park like no other, with slow and quiet river whitch is anything but strait, plenty of Green, many walking areas, for quiet walk or running or cyciling...
You have an option for remting a canooe, or (this is mine first time to see something like this) you can rent a frisbee, or better sead a complete of diferent wheights frisbees in a rucksack and go on a "DiscGolfPark" tour, you have like a golf course diferent distances and all kind of trees in a way... Very interesting....
I was totaly relaxed after few minutes in this park, quiet with few ducks, and rabbits...
Perfect for Sunday picnic with family.
Warm recomendation from me...
The best place to relax and spend time with friends and family 😄
Pleasant park in Braunschweig not far from the central train/tram station. Popular with cyclists and walkers. A few lakes. Skirts the local river in places. Overflowing bins a problem. Lots of rabbits and ducks.

We really loved our visit to the museum. We were really impressed by the help and information given by a lovely volunteer who had so much knowledge to share about the city of Braunschweig. Would highly recommend!!

Pretty old town hall in beautiful architecture. Close to other sites in the city and it surrounds a lovely open square with plenty of spaces to sit and relax. Stunning in the summer when it’s decorated with flowers, absolutely worth a visit when in Braunschweig…
I loved it. A highlight of the town. Allow the volunteers to show you around. (She did it in English for me.) Really fascinating look at the town's history in a beautiful building.
This is an absolute must see in Braunschweig!
You can see a lot of the old spirit of the city and you will be guided by very nice volunteers for free!
So, take your time and go there if you are interested into history!
free entry. you can learn a lot about the city
Beautiful gotic building from the early middle ages located at a gorgeous market place in the old town centre of Braunschweig
This is the best place to get the first impression about history and architectural structure of Brunswieck. Here you can learn what is a "Weichbild", how the main city "Bohlweg" was constructed and where is its name coming from. You can study the medieval structure of the city, and yo can find several interesting objects in the museum down the cellar.
Very nice building next to the marketsquare

Napoli is a good Italian restaurant. The food was very delicious. We had 2 different pastas. The arrabiata pasta was great but the lasagna was very disappointing. The service could have been better.
Teramisu though was also very good.
Great atmosphere, right around the corner of the castle.
The taste of the pizza was delicious.
Highly recommended if you don't want to be seated in a crowded place.
Very good food italian Family style - I recommend the Lasagne or the Pizza. Prices are really good for the food , Like Pizzas around 10 Eur. Would have gotton 5 stars But friends had a noodle dish and the Pasta wasnt Home Made. The Ramazzotti wasn't served in ice and warm!
Is a very delicius place to have lunsh or dinner. My very good advice order the pasta with gorgonzola!

My favorite kebab place. The curry sauce is great, salats fresh and portions usually well sized. The outside seating area is often a little dirty, but still nice to hang out and watch the passerby.

Among the best Döners in Braunschweig, made for you by friendly people. It might look a bit down at heel, there on one of Europe's least picturesque main streets, the somehow aptly named Bohlweg, but Beyti Grillhaus is my go-to place for a quick cheap city centre lunch. The help-yourself tea's good too. Worth the detour!
The food was OK, not good, just OK. And the service was just the worst. They forgot my order (which happens, it’s ok, we are human being, just apologize), and when I said I was still waiting (after 30 minutes) they just said aggressively : “next time order somewhere else”.So. Just go 50 meters further to the next Döner. Same quality, just friendlier.
Love the food, it's clean, portions are big and it's very tasty!
I went few times there , I felt like the chicken Döner was chewy . I don't know why but since then I never went there . Never tried something else maybe the other dishes are okay but I really didn't like the chicken Döner .
Always the best. Tried others but came back to this one. Good portions reasonably priced and friendly personnel. And you can sit there also.
Very fresh vegetables and the dough.
I had the best Falefel.... I was looking for something vegan. So the Pommes were also nicely fried and dried up. Gratulieren Betty Haus

in conclusion this Turkish restaurant is worth going to. the food is great, the service is nice and the prices are fair. its nice that when you pay they give you a raki. just note they might not give you one (they forgot us :(😔)
This is like one of the best turkish restaurants around in the area. Awesome meats …. awesome beer and perfect alfresco dining experience!
The mutton was so great. I ordered Tandure Teller, highly recommend. The service is also perfect. But you always need a reservation. Full of people.
Awesome place! Great food and friendly staff!
It was full but the find me a place for dinner. 👍🏻☺️
Apple Pay works!
great outdoor seating. I think that they have a separate outdoors smoking section and no smell drifted into the non-smoking part.

Water park
Freizeitbad Wasserwelt Braunschweig is a modern leisure center that offers a range of activities for visitors to enjoy. With pools, water slides, and diving boards, as well as saunas and spa treatments, it provides a wonderful experience. The facility is divided into separate sections for swimming and bathing, with a spacious sauna area that includes various types of saunas and a steam bath. Additionally, there is an outdoor pond with refreshing water in the autumn.
I have visited Freizeitbad Wasserwelt Braunschweig several times and have always had a fantastic experience. The facility offers a variety of swimming options, from a sport pool to a smaller pool for those who can't swim. It's a great place for families with children and also caters well to older visitors. The two fun slides are a definite highlight, and there is also a sauna and outdoor pool to enjoy. The overall quality of the facility is top-notch, and I always leave feeling refreshed and invigorated. Whether for health or leisure, Freizeitbad Wasserwelt Braunschweig is a great place to spend time with family and friends. I highly recommend it and would definitely go back every week if I could!

Generally it is OK, but the temperature in the room is too cold especially for children. My nose was getting cold and our son was really freezing. At the end we wanted to get warmer in jacuzzi but some guy was cleaning his feet over it (like taking dead skin)… 4/5 due to cold temperature in the room.
A good water park with a sauna area in Brunswick. We visited only the part with the pools. There were quite a lot of people and children, as it was Sunday. There is a possibility of free parking in a large paid parking lot. You need to take a receipt at the reception and then scan it when leaving the parking lot.
Okay for those who just want to swim a few lanes, but there are too few of them and you have to go there at the right time of the day, otherwise it's just full. The bicycle parking option sucks, it's like they forgot stairs. UPDATE 2025: They actually fixed the bicycle parking problem, added a star.
Very nice and clean swimming pool.
Possible pools for kids and not swimmer.
Sport pool and deep pool for swimmers.
Sauna and jacuzzi are also available.
Price ticket is so reasonable and you can pay by card and cash for ticket or in shop.
Big parking place is available.
Also parking and entrances for disabled people are considered.
Well organized swimming place, you have everything you need, lockers for your personal belongings and lockers for your clothes.
Changing rooms, shower rooms, washrooms.
And the swimming pool are divided into four categories I guess. And the pool place in fully temperature controlled, water as well.
You'll enjoy your visit for sure.
You get best indoor family swimming experience here.
No disinfectants were available near wash areas. Although the carona infection has greatly reduced. It's always good to have such service to the customers to improve hygiene.
Highly recommended, really nice ambience clean water and with some kids activities as well, this swimming pool have all things which you might looking for
1) Sauna ( have to buy diff ticket)
2) professional swimming pool
3) Jumping ladder.
4) 2 kinds of slides.

River
Oker River, located in the city, offers a serene escape into nature with its panoramic boat trips and opportunities for leisurely strolls and picnics along its banks. Whether you prefer cycling alongside the river or exploring the water in a pedal boat, canoe, or raft, there are plenty of activities to enjoy. While it is popular for canoeing and walking, some visitors note that depending on the season, the water may be still and emit a slight odor.

Nice
(Translated by Google) Whether by bike, idyllically along the edge; past meadows and fields with their inhabitants, or on the water in a pedal boat, canoe and raft, there is a lot going on on the Oker! Love it!
(Original)
Ob mit dem Rad, idyllisch am Rand entlang; an Wiesen und Feldern mit ihren Bewohnern vorbei, oder mit dem Tretboot, Kanu und Floß auf dem Wasser, an der Oker ist viel los! Love it!
(Translated by Google) A must for anyone in your area, good for canoeing and walking or the like. Despite this, depending on the season, the water is still and smells a bit.
(Original)
Ein muss für jeden der in Ihrer Nähe ist, gut zum Kanufahren und Spazieren oder der gleichen. Trotz dessen steht das Wasser je nach Jahreszeit still und stinkt etwas.
(Translated by Google) Even in autumn, the walks near the Oker are a nice excursion
(Original)
Auch im Herbst sind die Spaziergänge in Okernähe ein schöner Ausflug
(Translated by Google) Rivers are always interesting....unfortunately there are often not enough paths alongside them....so they are only partially suitable for walking
(Original)
Flüsse sind immer interessant....leider gehen oft zu wenig Wege nebenher....deshalb zum spazieren gehen nur bedingt geeignet
(Translated by Google) You should circumnavigate Braunschweig on the Oker at least once a year - by raft, kayak or simply in a paddle boat. The city looks completely different from the water.
(Original)
Mindestens 1x im Jahr sollte man auf der Oker Braunschweig umrunden - mit dem Floß, mit dem Kajak oder einfach mit einem Paddelboot. Die Stadt sieht vom Wasser völlig anders aus.
(Translated by Google) The Oker River in this region is particularly clean. Crayfish and brook trout can be seen frequently. Because this river is particularly clear, it's a good place to observe wildlife. Many spots with pebbles serve as spawning areas, making them ideal for fish. Freshwater pearl mussels can be found in sandier areas. Anyone who thinks they can get rich off this is seriously mistaken. Only one in every 1,000 mussels contains a small freshwater pearl.
(Original)
Die Oker in dieser Region ist besonders sauber. Flusskrebse und Bachsaiblinge sind immer wieder zu sehen. Da dieser Fluss besonders klar ist, lässt er es gut zu, Tiere darin zu beobachten. Viele Stellen sind mit Kieselsteinen als Laichzonen geeignet und dienen ideal als Laichstellen für Fische. In sandigeren Zonen findet man die Flußperlmuschel. Wer nun denkt, er könne damit reich werden, der irrt sich gewaltig. Lediglich jede 1000ste Muschel enthält eine kleine Flußperle.

Dankwarderode Castle, situated in Braunschweig, Germany, is a reconstructed 12th-century castle that serves as a historical monument and museum. Originally built as the residence for Henry the Lion, Duke of Saxony and Bavaria, this majestic structure has undergone various restorations over time. It stands as a symbol of medieval glory and architectural grandeur in the heart of Braunschweig.
This area is just wonderful, worth to walk around, sit somewhere on the traditional sitting banks. On some days you are allowed to climb the tower to enjoy an excellent view.
Suresh S — Google review
One of my favorite places where you can feel the weight of history.
really beautiful place with amazing architecture and tons of small details you'll miss unless you really look for them!
In some ways the building is the best feature. The size of the exterior belies the small exhibition space inside. It is one hall containing Gothic and Romanesque pieces. There are tapestries, altar pieces, paintings and other smaller objects. It would take about half an hour to see them all. Some of the the Ivory carvings are quite good. In addition there is also the original lion from the castle square outside in the collection. While it forms part of the Herzog Anton Ulrich museum, it doesn't seem to offer a combination ticket to see both museums.
if you love medieval, you'll love thid
Dankwarderode Castle on the Burgplatz ("castle square") in Brunswick is a Saxon lowland castle. It was the residence of the Brunswick dukes for centuries and, today, is part of the Herzog Anton Ulrich Museum.
Dankwarderode Castle was built between c. 1160 and 1175 as the Pfalz of Duke Henry the Lion on an island in the river Oker. Next to the castle, construction of Brunswick Cathedral began in 1173. The castle lost its military significance as a defensive structure early.
Visit:
1. Brunswick Lion, original on display in the museum.
2. Arm reliquary of Saint Blaise on display in the museum.
Amazing place, castle you won't forget visiting.
Exhibition is only one dark room with little description on the items. (makes onky sense with a tour or if you already know about the stuff)

The National Museum of Natural History in Braunschweig, Germany is a long-standing institution with an extensive collection of attractions. Visitors can explore indigenous fauna and marvel at the Insect Room's vast array of small creatures. The museum spans multiple floors, each offering unique and captivating exhibits. Guests can observe animals in their natural habitats, view dinosaur fossils, and learn about human history through archaeological displays. The museum also features impressive recreations of various animals and hosts special exhibitions on topics like the plastic age.
Very interesting museum with some astonishing recreations of various animals. There were many exhibitions, as well as a special exhibition with a focus on the present “plastic age”. Although almost all of the signs/information boards were written on German, and the fact that many of the animations were old and outdated, i would still very much recommend the museum to anyone visiting. The low ticket price is also a big factor here.

Beautiful museum,3 floors, the staff are nice and the place is clean and organized.
It doesn’t hold too many things but still very fun and informative.
I recently visited the National Museum of Nature and was impressed by the variety of exhibits and natural wonders on display. The museum is spread out over several floors, and each one offers something unique and interesting. One of the highlights for me was seeing different species of animals displayed in their natural habitats. I also enjoyed learning about dinosaurs through the fossils on display and the history of humans through archaeological exhibits. A nice touch was the display of an asteroid found in the area. The aquarium with its beautiful fish was also a treat. Overall, I had a great time at the museum and would highly recommend it, especially for families with kids. There's so much to see and learn, and it's a fantastic way to spend a day.
Really amazing place to discover
What is inside this museum is definitely much more that expectations
The details, and professionalism put in this project is just Perfect!
You can discover real pieces and even dead animals since thousands of years
It is a good place for family and kids
Very old-fashioned and still with all modern interactive bells and whistles
1. The staff is incredibly rude which took me by surprise. I had to wait to be served due to the two staff members at reception being in the middle of some lengthy conversation.
2. In order to receive a coin for the lockers I had to leave my passport with them which is unacceptable. I asked to be given change which they refused.
3. All signage is in German only. I am German and speak German but my son is not and was slightly irritated by not being able to explore as he wishes due to everything being in German. With Braunschweig being the international city it is, I would highly recommend to change this asap.
The museum itself is lovely but the above put a damper on our experience.
Really nice place but definitely too less dinosaurs fossils, but in main room there is floor full of big sauropod fossil. Things i didnt like was big fishes and too many fishes in too small aquariums
This place took me by surprise, it is not very big but nice things for especially children to look at, well planned. The small aquarium on the bottom floor is probably one of the coolest things unless you like to check out the dinosaur on the top first 😮...no worries it is not alive...anyhow, fantasy can get ahead of you here so on a rainy day when the kids are bored take a round here and learn something about your history.

German restaurant
Mutter Habenicht is a rustic tavern in Braunschweig that offers an authentic German dining experience. The cozy atmosphere invites guests to savor traditional German dishes such as homemade fried potatoes and crispy pork ribs. Nestled between towering buildings, this hidden gem is known for serving the best spare ribs in town, making it a must-visit for food enthusiasts.
The rib is very tasty, soft and bar b q sauce is perfect. The German pork leg is also very delicious. The price is reasonable and the atmosphere is very lovely. I got lucky to get the table without any reservations.

Super nice place for experiencing German culture and traditional food!
100% recommended. We will come back when friends or family come
Whilst in Braunschweig, I had the pleasure of discovering a restaurant that proved to be an excellent find. They offer a variety of tasty dishes, but there is one particular item that truly stands out and merits special mention: the BBQ Pork Ribs.
The BBQ Pork Ribs served here are exceptionally good; their flavour and quality are genuinely impressive. If you find yourself at this restaurant, I would very strongly recommend trying the Pork Ribs – the taste is quite remarkable.
Such delicious German food and the bar is quaintly decorated, definitely worth a visit.
Really nice restaurant in the center of the city, near shops. Must have the potato carrot soup!!! However all soups were delicious too!
Helpful and smiley staff, good atmosphere, large range of beers! The desert of waffle was amazing too!
I tried to get a table but was very rudely warded off. I have a feeling they don’t really receive English speakers well at all. Would’ve loved to try their food but do not recomment trying to get a table there if you don’t speak German. Disappointed to say the least
Great little place.
We got the Feuertopf soup (lots of meat, reminded me of a thinner chilly$, which was really great, and the ribs (super tender, fall off the bone, melt in your mouth delicious), which was also great.
If you are thinking of getting the ribs, i would suggest splitting them (and getting soup), it was a lot of food - we didn’t finish all of them.
Building is small, and rests between two much larger buildings. Inside is quaint and decorated. Very german.
The salat, vegetable dish, rump steaks were amazing. The design is very traditional. We were happy with the place. The garson can clean up the table a bit faster, overall nice.

Delicious food, great service, nice atmosphere, fair prices - highly recommended!

To be fair, I've only been to this restaurant once, but I'm not tempted to go back again.
The dish that I tried was called "Vollkorn Spaghetti" and I expected to get a whole wheat spaghetti dish. It turns out, they'd mixed regular wheat pasta with whole wheat pasta 50/50 (is whole wheat pasta THAT much more expensive than regular wheat pasta?). 7€ for a dish that also wasn't filling.
Friendly service and a nice patio but there's nothing special about the food served here.
Very tasty and good food. It is very noise inside due to stone walls, reflecting conversation in the room. Limited seats inside, more outside.
Not my cup of tea. Organic=cool. But needs to taste well too. But it was totally not tasty
Plastic chairs and old tables give a not so great impression, but the place itself has character. The prices are in the mid-high range, but the quality is great, both our dishes were delicious, good presented and plenty to leave us satisfied. Large offer of Bio dishes and drinks.
Great food and friendly ambience
(Translated by Google) The lady in service was very friendly and knew about allergies/intolerances. The portions were large and the food was very tasty. I rarely have so much choice for vegetarian and gluten-free options. I would definitely come again.

Die Dame im Service war sehr freundlich und kannte sich mit Allergien/Unverträglichkeiten aus. Die Portionen waren groß und das Essen sehr lecker. So viel Auswahl für vegetarisch und glutenfrei habe ich selten. Ich würde definition wieder kommen.
(Translated by Google) After years of abstinence, a return visit.
5 stars plus for the food presentation and the taste experience.
A dreamy fish and sauce, with very generous portions.

Opatija Grill, a Croatian restaurant, offers a warm and inviting dining experience with its grilled steaks, Balkan specialties, and schnitzel options. The owners, Robert and Dzoni Peric, along with their staff, exude a friendly and helpful demeanor that can make one forget about the cold and grey autumn weather. The menu features typical Balkan dishes with a focus on meat but also caters to vegetarians.
Excellent food and great service! A good spot for a special occasion.

Very good service and excellent food (especially the grilled meats), value for money!
Update: Had a feast there today again, this place never disappoints, we highly recommend!!
Tasteful grill. Everything was fine. Good taste and price/portion was the best. Staff trying their beat to give you a nice meal. We found a good table without reservation for 4 people and 1 baby. It can be quieter (staff made too much noise) and also less smelly (eventhough smells good!). 3 points since it was a totally "normal" experience.
Nice service, portions are big and food was ready very quickly. A shot of liquor as a farewell were given for free.
It was ok but they DO NOT ACCEPT VISA CREDIT OR DEBIT CARDS!! Only EC cards!!
Great food, friendly staff! 😊 Totally recommended for any type of visit, casual or business! 👌🏻
All recommendations for meat plate. Real Balkan Yugoslavian grill.
Best food in Braunschweig. Restaurant, food and staff all perfect.

Pizza restaurant
This is in my oppinion the best pizza and by far the best deal you will get in Braunschweig. This small restaurant offers pizzas in two sizes (the larger more than enough for one adult) for very affordable prices. Even when ordering for delivery the pizza is always hot. I have never had a negative experience when eating here. The staff is very kind.
Long live Parco! Thank you for the great food!

Great variety. Gluten free options available. I had pizza with ham and sliced hard boiled eggs. Was absolutely incredible. Staff is kind. A little over priced in my opinion.
The pizza is decent and they allow taking it half half what else do we need :)
Great pizzas, fantastic value, definitely recommend.
Good Pizza and very friendly service. The pizza could be a little less fatty... But it is a question of taste
Great Gluten Free Pizza!! Good wine selection. Super Service!
The smell it's great, but the service never came to my table and take the order after one hour
Best pizzeria in Braunschweig. Always fresh and delicious 😊
