A magnificent Baroque residence in Rastatt. The staircase and lacquer cabinet are particularly worth seeing.

impressive gate system

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

The 'Tour des Bouchers' - Butcher's Tower is one of the 15 towers that were built at the end of the 13th century as part of a fortress wall. The tower is called the "Butcher's Tower" because the butcher's guild was responsible for it. When the fortress was demolished in 1706, the Butcher's Tower remained with a few other towers. The tower was used as a prison until the middle of the 18th century. In 2017-2020, the exterior of the Butcher's Tower was restored. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metzgerturm_(Lauterbourg)

Definitely worth a visit

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.

Church of Sainte-Trinity Lauterbourg The church's choir, built in the Gothic style, was built in 1467 during the term of Speyer's Bishop Matthias von Rammung. The roof structure and organ of the church burned in the great city fire of 1678, after which the church was restored and re-consecrated in 1683. In 1711 the church was too small for the growing population, so it was demolished except for the choir and replaced by a new building in its current form, which was completed in 1716 and consecrated in 1719. In 1779 an organ was purchased from Ferdinand Stieffell in Rastatt. During the French Revolution the church was temporarily secularized. A complete renovation took place in 1878. The church was damaged in the Second World War. Jean Gaudin from Paris created today's church windows in 1950. In the 1970s and 1980s the church was renovated inside and out.
