There is a nice café, a farm shop, a small petting zoo with a playground, a fleet of tractors and excavators for the little ones and a great outdoor area. The selection of cakes and the size of the cake slices are almost legendary in the area. Unfortunately, the farm shop and the café are closed on Sundays.

Beautifully located swimming lake. Some of the cycle and pedestrian paths run in the immediate vicinity of the lake with several accesses to the shore. There are some benches and some freely accessible sunbathing areas.

Cycle Path With View of the Bergstraße

Highlight • Cycleway

The paths here are surprisingly beautiful considering they are between a motorway, a railway line and a main road. At night you might even see a mouse crossing the road.

Strahlenburg castle ruins

Highlight • Castle

The Strahlenburg castle ruins date back to the 13th century and house an inn. The Anna-Elisabeth mine is a silver and vitriol mine over 700 years old. The mine was listed as a historical monument in 1985 and can be visited as a visitor mine. Above Schriesheim is the historic Madonnenberg vineyard, with a statue of the Madonna and a sequoia tree as its landmarks. The Christian Mayer Public Observatory offers regular lectures. The old town has many historic buildings, such as the Strahlenberger Hof, the old town hall with a pillory, the oil mill on the Kanzelbach stream, the house built by Pastor Widerholt in 1662 with Hebrew and Greek inscriptions, and the Bachschlössel (Bach Castle). Since 2001, a footbridge has led from the old town over the Kanzelbach stream to the festival grounds. The Roman cellar in the new town hall features largely original masonry; It was found during construction work, moved to the basement of the new town hall in 1970 and has been on display there ever since.
