슈타인마우에른‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 동굴

1714년, 이 거주용 궁전은 유럽 역사가 쓰여진 무대였습니다. 라슈타트 조약은 1701년부터 모든 유럽 강대국이 관련된 스페인 왕위 계승 전쟁을 종식시켰습니다.

Can only be visited as part of the "larger" tour. But it's also worth a visit from the outside.

Just a few steps from the Karlsruhe Gate towards the city on Ludwigsring is the inconspicuous entrance to the casemates of Bastion 27 - Ludwigsfeste. Because of the low door, you have to enter with your head bowed and you reach the "Inner Karlsruher Thorwache". The historic bastion is located under a residential building and was given by the owner to the Rastatt Historical Society for public relations work. Walking through the casemates of Bastion 27 is an impressive experience. After the revolutionaries laid down their arms on July 23, 1849 and the fortress was handed over to the Prussian troops, several hundred insurgents were imprisoned in the lower rooms under inhumane conditions. https://histvereinrastatt.blogspot.com/2019/09/bastion-27.html

Up close, the Hermitage Chapel looks really special 🙂

The castle park is the central green area in Rastatt. Behind the castle, Margrave Ludwig Wilhelm of Baden-Baden planned a pleasure garden, as was known from France. Today the park combines baroque with modern elements. Fountains, flower gardens and colorful and shady arcades are still reminiscent of Rastatt's baroque period. The park is framed by chestnut trees, some of which are centuries old.

The impressive Rastatt Residential Palace is worth a stop, and not just because of the beautiful park. You can also visit the castle itself, the castle church and the military history museum or stop off at the park restaurant.

Favorite Castle was built by Johann Michael Ludwig Rohrer between 1710 and 1730 in Rastatt-Förch. The builder was Margravine Sibylla Augusta of Baden-Baden (1675–1733), widow of the so-called Türkenlouis, Margrave Ludwig Wilhelm of Baden-Baden (1655–1707), who had very clear ideas about what this baroque work of art with rich decorative interior furnishings should look like . In addition to the residence in Rastatt, it was intended to serve as a country pleasure palace for princely entertainment, socializing and games, hunting, masquerades, studies and raising children. The castle was, so to speak, the “pleasure castle”, while in the city it served more formal purposes. The park at the castle is - as befits a castle park - very attractive.

I think it's great that the parks are still freely accessible.
