    Great play and climbing opportunity for children. Reminds a little of Feestvarken in Arnhem.

      The very beautiful Roman city of Xanten attracts with its magical power to look at the sights. The sights as well as the city itself are extraordinary and indeed Roman. The more you visit the city, the more you discover something new for yourself and relaxation for your soul. The lake and Roman park are also beautiful and this wonderful point, if you are there, the city welcomes me and I wish you a lot of fun.

            Children can let off steam in this small park and playground with the kite.

              This is the sweet dragon Gordo and not the evil dragon from the Siegfried saga.
              Children can climb on him and love him. 😉

                This dragon is not dangerous, looks good and is about 12m long. A great climbing kite for children.

                      The 12 m long and 2 m high concrete dragon in the north wall of Xanten is called Gordo (Spanish word for "fat").

                          Cheerful splash of color on the north wall.

                            It looks very good and is located directly in the spa park at the Kriemhild Mill. There are plenty of places to sit around.

                              Really beautifully made. What a piece of work! Made entirely of mosaic tiles.
