Once upon a time, the lake was drained. For the sake of the environment!

An idyllic spot in Marisfeld

The beautiful pond is located not far from the animal enclosure. It is ideal for taking photos, including the water lilies that may be in bloom. There is also a bench for relaxing.

Marisfeld Castle Park is an exception among the cultural and historical sights in the village landscape of the district of Hildburghausen. The approximately 7-hectare park area unfolds behind the central village square, which, in addition to a few decorative half-timbered houses, a group of stately linden trees, and above all the building ensemble village church and castle. The latter, a regular four-winged building with striking corner residential towers (1663-1665) was the center of a manor, which also included the castle park. Laid out in the second half of the 19th century in the manner of a landscape garden, the complex under the landowner Baron Hermann von Eichel (1856-1934) achieved its final form around 1890, which is still largely preserved today: Trees and shrubs from the local flora form the skilful arranged vegetation. An intricate network of paths always offers new perspectives on the inner and outer area of the park. A small pond with an island of trees, which used to supply a village mill, is particularly picturesque, especially when the castle above is reflected in the water. From the former hereditary burial ground of the von Eichel family in the rear part of the park, only a few remains and simple staffage buildings unfortunately no longer exist today.

This water lily pond is located above the brick ponds. If you haven't seen water lilies yet, you'll find some😆. But seriously, this place offers really great motifs, especially when the water lilies are blooming ☺️. A very nice bench completes the whole thing.

great when everything is blooming here

A must if you drive this way. A great photo opportunity.

And the trail is really varied, but a bit short.
