Guided Story
Can you hear the leaves rustling above you? This peaceful haven is named after the famous Dutch painter Frans Hals. Look to your left, where the trees form a natural canopy. In spring, the air is filled with the sweet scent of budding flowers mingling with the earthy smell of the grass. Behind you, a short walk away, stands the Kreuzkirche, its silhouette offering a striking contrast to the gentle landscape of the square. Take a seat on one of the benches and soak in the tranquility as birds chirp overhead. You might even spot a blackbird perched among the branches, watching the world go by.
