バーゼルシュタットの天然記念物・トップ8

A narrow path with bridges and footbridges leads into the Ruschbach valley – a must-see.

Very beautiful garden with a wonderful view of the Rhine.

Don't expect too many plants or even a botanical garden. But it's a nice way to get to the Rhine, away from the tourist crowds. Also because it's a dead-end street. It's also a place with a beautiful history. Of course, there are plenty of those in Basel.

The pond is just one garden feature in the beautiful Villa Hirzbrunnen Park. The villa is now used by a clinic, to which the park also belongs. A few beautiful old trees, a tastefully integrated bit of art, lawns, benches, and flowering plants complete the experience of a visit. The park is open to the public during the day. "The Claraspital park has been preserved almost as it was designed in 1865, with a remarkable size of around 24,500 square meters. The once magnificent summer residence of a wealthy Basel family has a rich past." https://www.claraspital.ch/de/aufenthalt-und-besuch/aufenthalt/erholung-im-park

Much has been written about the fountains in Basel - their history, their architecture, their diversity. But one thing is often forgotten: the water in Basel's fountains is of drinking quality. Not only is it clean, but it also invites you to bathe and refresh yourself - and that is actually intended. A special detail that underlines the charm of the city in its own way.

In Basel, no square, no street, not even an alley was named after Friedrich Nietzsche. And yet he worked here as a professor for several years from 1869. During this time, he lived mostly in the area around this fountain on Spalentorweg and at Schützengraben. And during all these years, his route to the university led past this fountain, where a memorial plaque commemorates him today.

One of over 200 fountains in Basel. Not just a decorative fountain, but also for refreshment! Best drinking water!👌

The fountain offers numerous beautiful photo opportunities
