Overall a very nice meeting point, especially if you are traveling with children. Playground, tower, pond and possibly also something to eat or drink - what more could parents want?!

The historic lime kilns in Flörsheim am Main are located between Flörsheim and Hochheim on the Wickerbach stream and are among the few remaining industrial monuments of their kind in Hesse. The kilns were built in the 18th century around a former brickworks and supplied the region with lime plaster needed for house construction for many decades. They were in operation until 1921, after which they fell into increasing disrepair before being uncovered, restored, and opened to the public as part of the Rhine-Main Regional Park in 1997/98. Today, the imposing circular kilns can be viewed from a modern steel and glass structure with a walkway; information panels explain the history and workings of lime burning. The site is considered a unique example of early industrial architecture in Hesse and is a popular destination for walks in the Wickerbach floodplain.
