Best places: Tourist Attractions in Schwetzingen, Germany

Lavish antiquities in vast, 17th-century palace featuring a rococo theater, plus ornamental gardens.

👍 The Rococo Theater is well worth seeing even when there is no performance. Tours of the theater are occasionally offered, which you should of course take advantage of by running in the castle park.

👍👍 Der Tempel der Waldbotanik wurde von Nicolas de Pigage als ausgehöhlter Baum gestaltet. Die Außenfassade wurde wie Eichenrinde gestaltet und der Boden zeigt Jahresringe aus Steinmaterialien. Der Tempel wurde dem Wissenschaftler und Naturforscher Carl von Linné gewidmet.
