20의 츠빙겐베르크가지 명소 & 주요 장소

The castle complex has something to offer not only architecturally, but also botanically. This approx. 300-year-old, seven-meter-tall pine tree grows in the middle of the battlement, defying wind and weather on the barren ground. The real hallmark of the ruin!

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.

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.

Auerbach Castle is always worth a visit. In addition to a great view, there is also a kiosk here in the summer months. There are also toilets available for everyone. Clean ! In all ways. From here there are beautiful circular routes through the forest in the direction of Alsbach Castle or Melibokus. Or you hike downhill to Auerbach. There are a few nice places to stop here. Or continue via the Fürstenlager to the Kirchberghäuschen.

Auerbach Castle is one of the most famous castle complexes on Bergstrasse. What is particularly fascinating is the unique view of the Rhine plain and the Odenwald.
