As the name suggests, the Island of Reflection is an idyllic place to find peace and quiet. The path to the island leads over the beautiful white wooden butterfly bridge.
From the island, you have fantastic views of the castle pond.
The bust of Prince Otto von Bismarck standing in the center of the island is impressive, with moving inscriptions on all four sides – including the following texts:

I love the big trees. They are the ancestors.
I never feel lonely in the forest.
That must be rooted in the nature of the forest.
A touch of melancholy, a touch of homesickness, a longing for the forest, the lake, the meadow...
Forest solitude must have something satisfying about it for us Germans.
