Burggarten

"Fantastic place with a nice view over Taubertal. The garden blossom was not so good during our July visit. I guess it will blossom more in May."

"We spent three days in Rottenburg am Neckar and one of the highlights of our visit was definitely the Castle Garden, or Burggarten as it’s known locally. We stumbled upon it while exploring the upper parts of the old town and it instantly became one of our favourite spots to just slow down and enjoy the moment. We took a relaxed stroll through the garden, taking in the fresh spring air while admiring the colourful flowers starting to bloom all around us. The garden is peaceful with a few benches scattered around, perfect for sitting quietly and soaking in the panoramic views over the valley and surrounding town rooftops. We loved listening to the birds – it felt like they were putting on their own little concert just for us. One thing that really stood out was the series of stone sculptures representing the four seasons – a quirky little detail that adds some character to the garden. There’s also a small historical touch with a memorial stone remembering the Jewish community that once lived here, which made us pause and reflect for a moment. The garden itself isn’t huge and there aren’t really any café facilities right there, so it’s best to grab your coffee or snack in town before heading up. We found that early mornings or late afternoons were the quietest times, especially if you prefer a more peaceful experience without too many people around. All in all, a visit to Rottenburg wouldn’t feel complete without spending some time in this lovely green space."

"Lovely gardens offering something of a refuge from the hordes of tourists, of course they are here too, but not in as great numbers on the day we visited. Lovely seeing a plethora of Butterflies on the Buddleia."
