벤스하임‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

The Fürstenlager city park is worth a visit at any time of the year. There are different hiking trails for big and small people.

The state park was built around 1790. It is a great facility for a short or a long walk with a variety of sights.

The Fürstenlager State Park is the former summer residence of the landgraves and grand dukes of Hesse-Darmstadt in Bensheim-Auerbach on the Bergstraße, built around 1790.

Nice when a bit of water falls down.

The facility was given the name Fürstenlager by the local population. Since the park was not closed off and was also accessible during stays of the grand ducal family, locals could observe the princes and their guests "lying in the meadows".

In the approximately 46 hectare park, which is laid out around a mineral well, there are stately homes, monuments and garden temples, as well as a number of courtyard buildings arranged in the shape of a traditional village. The park itself is one of the early English gardens in Germany. It is embedded in the hilly landscape and is home to 50 exotic trees and shrubs, including one of the oldest giant sequoias in Germany. The garden art ensemble has largely been preserved in its original form and is now used by the population of the Rhine-Main area as a local recreation area.

Fascinating, the last ice age left a few rocks here. Absolutely worth seeing, the best thing to do is hike up from below over the rocks, which is not without danger, hold on to children. Unfortunately very crowded on Sundays and public holidays when the weather is nice. There is a rest stop at the top. With the MTB you cross the Felsenmeer on the way in a few places.

The kiosk is usually open from April to the end of October. In bad weather, the kiosk remains closed. Friday is rest day.
