A really worthwhile excursion destination, beautiful castle and well-kept park, there are various guided tours, a café and a public toilet facility.

A beautiful facility that I have mixed feelings about.
On the one hand, I really like the buildings and the surrounding park. A wonderful line of sight to the castle in Ludwigsburg also served as a baseline for the survey of Württemberg in 1880. Keyword triangulation.
On the other hand, this complex is as big as Stuttgart's old town and the megalomaniac builder Carl Eugen, as the ruler of the country at the time, made "his" people bleed badly just to satisfy his need for recognition. In addition, the show-crazy Carl Eugen has lost interest in the ensemble again after 6 years. I find that incredible!
Today the common people can at least enter the facility.

Rococo castle "Solitude" (loneliness) in a wonderful location.
The last big festival was held here in 1782, then the decline (until the renovation in more recent times) could not be stopped.
