Fronte Beckers This well-preserved part of the fortress, over 250 meters long, impressively illustrates the historical fortification system with its moat defense (horseshoe), the main rampart, the posterns and underground mine galleries. Today, the moat defense houses the municipal music school and the youth center. Source: https://www.germersheim-erleben.eu/Sehenswertes/

The Germersheim Fortress was built during the reign of King Ludwig I. The foundation stone was laid on October 18, 1834. The fortress was built mostly from red bricks.

The sculpture “Daphne” is part of the Germersheim art and ski tour trail. "Daphne is a nymph in Greek mythology. As the god Apollo, the love god Eros mocked him, he took revenge by throwing a golden love arrow at him and a lead one shot at Daphne. Apollo fell madly in love with Daphne, while Daphne, hit by Eros' arrow that had exactly the opposite effect, became unreceptive to any love affair. When Apollo harassed Daphne, she fled to her father Peneios, a river god, and was transformed into a laurel tree for protection. The statue represents this moment of transformation. The lower body and legs already have them Metamorphosis to trunk and roots passed through. The upper body, arms and head still show human features. The face is so highly stylized that the viewer is left wondering whether the features show the agony of metamorphosis or the relief of rescue."
