Wiesbaden Photos

This colourful sculpture is about the “rights of children”.

Various buildings reflected in the wet granite of a small fountain. You can even see my camera…

The “Jagdschloss Platte” was constructed as a hunting-seat for duke Wilhelm of Nassau in 1824. It is situated in the Taunus mountains, in the woods towards the North of Wiesbaden. The palace was mostly destroyed in 1945 and is currently undergoing extensive restoration works.

A heron is looking for fish in the small pool in front of the Mosburg, Biebrich.

The lion appears in the coat of arms of the state of Hesse, of which Wiesbaden is the state capital.

Currently, the state parliamaent is undergoing major restauration works and what could be more appropriate than having children paint their interpretation of the state symbol on the surrounding fence?

Wiesbaden’s hot sources were already famous in Roman times. At the Kochbrunnen (”boiling well”), the water of 16 hot springs comes together.
