    only public large water area that invites you to linger

      The Idstein Castle Pond is an idyllic gem in the heart of the city—perfect for a relaxing break, a picnic, or as the destination for a leisurely bike ride.

      Translated by Google •

        One often assumes that a castle pond must be ancient, but this one is a beautiful example of how to combine history and modern urban design. It was deliberately created as a body of water to emphasize the atmosphere of the castle and bring a tranquil green haven to the city. It's the ideal spot to park your bike for a while and stretch your legs on one of the benches. The mighty Residenzschloss is sometimes reflected in the water, making for a fantastic photo backdrop – especially in good weather! Enjoy the tranquility of the water, the gentle lapping, and recharge your batteries before plunging back into the hustle and bustle of the half-timbered houses. In short: The castle pond is a small, newly renovated refuge that every cyclist should use as a chill-out zone!
