Mainufergalerie Begegnung(en) Sculptures

Highlight • Monument

Where would an art project called "encounter (s)" be better placed than in a place where several paths meet?

Several artists created six sculptures from local maple and oak, which now stand at the point where an asphalt and an unpaved path meet. Where cyclists and hikers meet.

Unfortunately one of the sculptures of the night was sawed off and stolen. It was replaced by a "cardboard comrade" to restore the overall impression.

Baroque Philippsruhe Palace + park - Hanau

Highlight • Castle

The castle park is a very beautiful park, which invites you to linger. In addition, the park is of course the castle Philippsruhe, which is one of the most important cultural and architectural monuments of Hesse. The castle is today mainly a historical museum.

The museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday from 11am to 6pm. The entrance fee is four euros.

In the castle there is also a café and a beautiful terrace overlooking the river Main.
