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”.

This is the former main residence of the dukes of Nassau in Wiesbaden-Biebrich.

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.
