Herzogspark

The 1.5-hectare municipal park extends along the Danube River's bank at Hundsumkehr Strasse, featuring multiple garden sections and a medieval tower.

Since 1293, when city walls expanded, the site transformed from a moated area to a private noble garden, before becoming public property in 1935.

The Renaissance garden displays geometric parterres bordered by boxwood hedges, while a Shakespeare garden adds literary connections to the botanical collection.

Visitors can explore the Prebrunnturm tower during summer months and contact the tourist office at +49 941 507 4410 for additional information.

The former moat now houses a specialized collection of rhododendrons, complemented by a lily pond where goldfish swim among aquatic plants.
