Herb Gately asks, Ruth and I have lived in the Rhineland Pfalz Region of Germany for 3 Years. We have traveled throughout the country. What is your must-visit Hidden Gem in Germany to visit that may not be in the average Tourist Guide? By the way, we have been to 16 Countries and 65 Cities.
Yes, there are a few places I’d recommend in Germany that most people don’t know about.
One is Bergpark Wilhelmshohe. It is a landscape park in the village of Kessel. There is a giant artificial river that flows down a hill, and it’s an incredible sight when it is running. When I was there, I got to see it with the water running. I’d check the times they do this in advance because when I was there, they only did it twice a week.
The other place I’d recommend is the Völklingen Ironworks in the state of Saarland. It is a former pig iron blast furnace that operated from 1882 to 1986. This might not sound like a tourist attraction, but I found it a fascinating place to visit because there are so few sites like this in the world that have been preserved.
Both of these sites are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
