Ever wondered where the castle, or "Burg," in Rothenburg ob der Tauber is? It’s a question that pops up quite often, usually met with puzzled looks. The truth is, Rothenburg hasn’t had a castle for ages. The once grand Stauferburg was destroyed long ago. But don't let that dampen your spirits! In its place, you'll find the Castle Garden, a lush, serene haven that more than makes up for the absence of the old fortress. So, what makes the Castle Garden so special, and where can you catch the most breathtaking views? Let me share why spending time in Rothenburg's Castle Garden is an absolute must.
The Castle Garden is an enchanting spot where history and nature intertwine. It’s the perfect place to relax, surrounded by vibrant flower beds and ancient stone walls that whisper tales of the past. As you stroll through the garden, you'll find yourself drawn to the panoramic views of the Tauber Valley. Trust me, it's a sight that stays with you long after you've left. Be sure to visit during sunset for an unforgettable experience as the sky paints a canvas of colors.
