A retired lawyer and passionate garden designer has created a garden on the Egloffstein mountain slope opposite the castle, which has no equal in the Franconian region. Beautiful to look at .... you come on a hike on the Paradiesweg directly past it.

If you love Baroque garden architecture and Italian moods, you should definitely visit the garden. The grounds are not open to the public, but if the owner is present and you kindly ask him, he will lead one or the other through the garden. There is no inadvertent behind this: there are questions of liability law which are denied an opening.

Hikers often stop in disbelief and rub their eyes - an unknown baroque garden in the middle of Franconian Switzerland?
