    Wilhelmsbad Spa Complex with Hanau State Park 🚴‍♂️

    Wilhelmsbad is a former spa complex with a state park in Hanau, characterized by the historic building ensemble of the former spa complex, which is surrounded by an extensive landscaped park. To the south and southeast lie the Wilhelmsbad villa district. The area is one of the most expensive in the Brothers Grimm town, with a population of just under 300. Wilhelmsbad's facilities also include a miniature golf course, several restaurants, and cafés. To the north, in the Fasanerie, is one of Hesse's oldest golf courses, and to the west is the Wilhelmsbader Hof equestrian center.

    Wilhelmsbad State Park:

    The park of the Wilhelmsbad spa complex is designed as an English landscape park and features numerous "sensations": a carousel, ruins, a comedy house, rock passages, a hermitage, a Devil's Bridge, a pyramid, a snail mountain, and playground equipment.

    - Carousel: One of the biggest attractions is the giant carousel. It was built in 1780 and has been operating again since 2016, for the first time since being damaged in World War II.

    - Artificial Castle Ruins: Hidden in the tower of the artificial ruins is a pleasure palace with an elegant apartment and a magnificent domed hall. These private quarters of the Crown Prince have now been restored to their historic condition.

    - Train Station: In the 19th century, the complex – already a popular tourist destination, including from neighboring Frankfurt am Main – received its own train station, now called Hanau-Wilhelmsbad, on the Frankfurt-Hanau Railway.

    - Doll Museum: Since 1983, the Hessian Doll Museum has displayed its collection in the rooms of the spa building.

      In 1779, Hereditary Prince Wilhelm I of Hesse-Kassel had something unique built in the Hanau Wilhelmsbad spa park under the direction of his architect Franz Ludwig von Cancrin - a building that attracts people like a magnet today, makes them pause, pause and dream.



      Standing on an artificial hill, horses and carriages that turn as if by magic - the Wilhelmsbad carousel!
