The old Main bridge to Kreuzwertheim was formerly a railway bridge. The steel structure with the rails was dismantled at the end of the 1980s. It can still be seen in old photographs.

For me, this is one of the most beautiful wildlife parks in Germany. The feeding sessions with the animal keepers, which take place twice a day, are fantastic. If you want to take photos with a tripod, you have to register in advance, and it costs extra.

The castle pond in Bad Mergentheim is part of the castle park, a sprawling, English-style park. It is an artificial lake fed by streams and features an island with the "Schneckenbuckel" (snail hump).
