Very nice place for a rest. Unfortunately, there is a sewage treatment plant right next to it.

The litter used to be dammed up at this point and the people of Nordheim had their own swimming pool. I also learned to swim here.

Bavaria in Bloom Nature Garden

Highlight • Natural

A very beautifully landscaped natural garden, with many opportunities to rest and relax. Plenty of seating around the small lakes and swimming, of course in the warmer months. Enter at your own risk.
