Wiesbaden Photos

in Wiesbaden itself, this building is usually known as the “Greek Chapel”. It was, however, built for Elisaveta Michailovna, the Russian wife of the grand Duke Adolf of Nassau.

So, although it is an orthodox church (church services are still regularly performed) it is actually a “Russian” rather than a Greek church. There is an interesting small Russian graveyard a few steps from the church.

Wiesbaden, Kurpark

The Marktkirche at night.

The Kurhaus seen across the pond behind it.

Located in the centre of Wiesbaden, right next to the state parliament and the city hall, the neo-gothic Marktkirche is Wiesbaden’s most important protestant church. Its central spire is 92 metres high.

one of the old fountains that have currently been stowed away while the “bowling green” in front of the Kurhaus is undergoing a facelift.

Aquis Mattiacis (”springs of the Mattiaci”) - the Roman name of Wiesbaden is inscribed on the “Kurhaus”. Here, you see the inscription reflected in the hood of a car parked outside the Kurhaus.

Actually, the place in front of the Kurhaus is currently being rebuilt and the unseemly parking lot will disappear in the process. So, shooting such reflections will be much more difficult in the future.

The Mosburg was actually built as a ruin - meant to be a decorative element in the huge gardens. Works anazingly well, especially in the fog!

The old town hall of Wiesbaden now houses the registration office. Built in 1610, this is the oldest building in Wiesbaden. On the right, you can see the the entrance to the state parliament of Hesse.

The train station of Wiesbaden is located somewhat outside the city proper. If you arrive here and have a bit of time (and no heavy luggage), you can walk through the park opposite the station towards the Wilhelmstraße. There are some nice gardens in the ” Reisinger-Anlagen” as well as a huge grassy space that is used for various events including the outdoor cinema performances held here each August. Here you see a rainbow over the trees of the Reisinger-Anlagen.

The “Kriegerdenkmal” (”Warrior’s monument”) dates back to 1909 and was the work of one “Franz Preitel” - not really a well-known artist. The monument marks the entrance to the beautiful “Nerotal” park named after the (in)famous Roman emperor.

This cave used to be quite famous but now has become all but forgotten. It used to be the hideout of a local poacher / outlaw who was caught at the cave in 1792.

There are quite a few stories about Leichtweiß (or Leichtweis).

The vivid autumn colours muted by thick fog.

While the Grand Ducal Palais itself was already finished in 1744, the park next to it was designed by Friedrich Ludwig von Sckell only in 1823. One of its attractions is a small castle, the Mosburg that was actually built as a ruin.

A somewhat unusual sight: a US military jeep is parked in the town hall of Wiesbaden!

This was part of the fascinating “Wiesbaden 1945-1948″ exposition.

basically the same scene as in “Fog in the Park” - only without the fog…

Thermine, a little “train” that does a highly recommended 1 hour tour of the city, but also can be booked for special events.

The little street running next St Bonifatius, one of the most important catholic churches, is called the “Kirchenreulchen”, the explanation I heard for this peculiar name was that “reulchen” was meant to be a diminutive for “rue”, the French “street”, while the German “Kirche” means “church”.Detailed description about Alkeran Cancer dosage, side effects and pharmacological action.

many yachts lie in the harbour at Wiesbaden Schierstein.

The old cemetery of Wiesbaden now serves as a playground and park, although some of the graves are still left.

Wiesbaden is famous for its hot springs. This is the one at the Kranzplatz.

The fountain here gets its colours from the minerals in the hot water running through it.

The banks of the river Rhine, only a few hundred meters from the buzzing yacht harbor.

a very foggy day at the Grand Ducal Palais, only a few steps from the water of the river Rhine.

Bergkirche means “mountain church”. Actually, the “mountain” is just a little hill, but still the church has an elevated position when compared to its surroundings…
