Edersee

Reviewed By TTOverseas - Cairo, Egypt

My initial interest in Edersee was for the Dam Busters history, but my daughter and I enjoyed a relaxing afternoon lunch and walk around the area. The view of Waldeck Castle is cool and we had a lazy pizza lunch.

Wildpark Alte Fasanerie Klein-Auheim

Reviewed By RoySproson - Hanau, Germany

I visit the Fasanerie with friends and family each year at different times of the year. We always enjoy the promenade to see the animals which are well known , goats , wild boar , sheep and exotic , lynx , wolves , owls , deer , bison......in vast open space within the forest at the Western edge of Hanau. There is a learning space which is interactive. In the summer , there are drinks and ice cream to rehydrate thirsty visitors. There is an adventure park for the younger members of the family . The service is smiling but discrete and the price is low - the children can also feed the goats and sheep. Highly recommended for visitors to the region.

Marburger Landgrafenschloss Museum

Reviewed By SharonD54 - Townsville, Australia

My daughter and I took the bus up to the Schloss yesterday. The cost was EUR2.20 one way. Free for uni student daughter. The bus drivers are immensely capable and practiced at negotiating the narrow streets and tight turns. The Schloss houses a very well organised museum within its walls. Cost for me EUR5. Free for daughter. You must place bags in a locker and can also leave your coat if you wish. Coin operated locker refunds your coin on retrieval of bags. Displays include several models of the Schloss through the ages from the 10th century onwards. These are on the ground floor with the display of Marburg Pottery and other works. You can choose to use a life or walk the stairs like we did to access the small chapel and the three floors of museum. The first floor is religious art from about the 12th century onwards. Much is from Elisabethkirche which was renovated and rearranged many times over the centuries. I spent a lot of time on this floor. The descriptor cards included both German and English. The second floor holds items further along in time. Few of the descriptions included English although dates are easy enough to read. This display included shields and armour worn by the order of knights who took over St. Elizabeth’s work after she died, as well as swords and firearms and other weapons. There is an enormous tapestry on display on this floor, as well. The third floor holds furniture, clothing, everyday objects and beautiful works of art up to the early 30th century. Again, little or no English. I didn’t have the opportunity to examine this floor as much as I would have liked as we needed to catch the bus back down the hill. We caught the bus up at 1.15pm and returned on the 3.45pm bus (the museum closes at 4pm in the colder months). I would recommend allowing yourself an additional hour. Well worth a visit, especially if you look in at Elisabethkirche before or after. (I visited Elisabethkirche the day before so the museum displays meant more to me because of it.)

St. Elizabeth Kirche

Reviewed By 595willemjanv - Oisterwijk, The Netherlands

The church and the story of Elizabeth sound like a fairytale. The church is a beautiful building with an amazing part with graves of famous royals. The golden shrine of Elizabeth is a masterpiece in gold. At the exit of the church you will find the graves of mr and mrs Paul von Hindenburg the former president of Germany before WWII.

Schloss Philippsruhe

Reviewed By SRGermany2013 - Frankfurt, Germany

Took a short break here at Schloss Phillippsruhe. The park is beautiful and quiet. A very nice place to take a long stroll. There are benches where you can just sit and watch the world go by... A historical museum awaits you inside if you want to take a tour. Lots of weddings are booked here and there were two on the day we visited.
