Spitzhacke by Claes Oldenburg

A visit is particularly worthwhile if there is an interest in astronomy. In the Karlsaue there is the Planet Trail, but in the Orangerie there is a wonderful collection of historical astronomical measuring and observation instruments. In the foyer, a Foucault pendulum can be observed and upstairs there is a very beautiful planetarium. But it is also a very beautiful place overall.

View of Schwaneninsel from the East Shore

Highlight • Viewpoint

If you stroll from the Orangery through the idyllic Karlsaue in princely footsteps, the artistically designed Aueteich in the south-western part of the park awaits you. Here lies the enchanting Swan Island, crowned by a picturesque little temple. Make sure you look up! The golden ball on the roof of the temple represents Jupiter and is part of the planetary hiking trail that begins with the sun at the Orangery.
