    The castle pond in Friedberg, Bavaria, is picturesquely located below the Wittelsbach castle and is part of the castle park. The pond was originally created artificially and was used to obtain ice for the castle's vaulted cellar.

    As part of the redesign of the castle park, the pond was completely remodeled to highlight it as a central element of the park. The banks were designed to be as close to nature as possible, and a riverside path allows visitors to experience the pond and the surrounding vegetation. In addition, seating areas with a view of the castle were created that invite you to linger.

    The castle pond not only serves as a place of relaxation, but also as a venue for cultural events. Concerts by the Friedberg town band are held here regularly, delighting visitors with musical performances in a summery atmosphere.

    For walks, the castle park with the pond offers an idyllic backdrop that attracts both locals and tourists. The combination of historical architecture and natural beauty makes the castle pond a special place in Friedberg.

      The sculpture “Kissing Forbidden” by the artist Wolfgang Auer is located in the castle pond below the Wittelsbach Castle in Friedberg. This depiction of a mermaid playing with a golden ball was installed as part of the Bavarian State Exhibition 2020 and is part of the sculpture path around the castle. The sculpture blends harmoniously into the surroundings and invites visitors to experience the connection between art and nature in the castle park.
