The castle park was purchased by the municipality and laid out in its current form between 1982 and 1988.

In the heart of Gemmingen, between the castle courtyard and Wiesenstrasse, is the old stately castle park, which was acquired and renovated by the municipality of Gemmingen in the 1980s. The idea behind it was English gardening. The center of the site today is the castle park pond, which is fed by its own spring, the Murrbach, and mainly by an old pipe from the Losterbach spring. Adjacent to the northern bank is an octagonal wooden pavilion. There are various events, concerts, children's performances and also an open-air cinema. Every two years, the park festival takes place across the entire area, organized by Gemmingen and Stebbach clubs. Not far from the pavilion, on the edge of the path, you will come across a bronze group, the Gänseliesel. It was donated by a Gemmingen citizen. There is also an old war memorial in a clearing in the trees. The castle park is now the green heart of the municipality and is an integral part of community life. (Source: Heilbronnerland.de)

Very nice park with a lake and benches and a pavilion. The bike path leads right through it.

The lake is primarily used for flood protection on the Zaber. In summer, swimmers and other people looking for relaxation visit the lake with its bathing beach; Anglers can catch pike, zander and perch there, as well as rainbow trout, carp, tench, bream, catfish and eel. Sailing and motor boating, on the other hand, are prohibited on the lake. Walking and hiking trails of different lengths touch the Ehmetsklinge, including a 6.5 km long circular lake trail, which also connects it with the Katzenbachsee, which is almost 2 km to the east. A forest and tree as well as a wine educational trail also run near the lake. There are some inns by the lake. In May 2009, the new nature park center of the Stromberg-Heuchelberg nature park opened its doors on the lake shore. The lake was created between 1968 and 1970, inaugurated in June 1970 with a lake festival, and expanded in 2000 and 2001. EnBW, the operating company of the Neckarwestheim nuclear power plant, initiated the enlargement of the lake; Low water in the Neckar during the summer and legal requirements had previously led to a lack of cooling water in the reactor at this time of year, which now hardly ever occurs. In the north-eastern area near the dam it has a fairly constant width of around 250m, further up it branches into two peaks that reach into the valleys of Zaber in the south-west and Ehmehtsklingenbach in the west and reaches its greatest length of around 600m at the tributary of the latter. With normal traffic jams, the surface of the lake is 232m above sea level. NN. The expansion increased the crest height of the dam structure on the air side from 12.50m to 15.05m, the crest length of the dam from 320.50m to 335.50m, the water depth from 4.80m to up to 8m with permanent waterlogging, the water area from 7, 3ha to 13.8ha, the storage volume from 190,000m³ to 590,000m³. Annually from August 15th to December 31st, the Neckar can now be supplied with an additional volume of water of up to 400,000 cubic meters via the Zaber to compensate for the evaporation caused by the operation of some thermal power plants on its banks, but the flood protection in Zabergäu and the Increasing the water level in case of low water in the Zaber. During the expansion, around 10 hectares of arable land were converted into meadows, trees and shrubs were planted and the front dam was designated as a biotope. The costs for this and for a number of other measures were borne by the operators of a number of thermal power plants on the Neckar under the management of the Neckarwestheim nuclear power plant.
