Guided Story
Can you hear the gentle splash of the fountain? Close your eyes and you might catch the scent of roses in the air. Look around and notice the majestic facades of the surrounding buildings. They're whispering stories from 1899, when this place was created. Behind you to the south, there's a memorial stone for a synagogue that once stood here. In spring, this square feels like a hidden garden in the heart of the city, with trees in full bloom. Take a moment to soak in the tranquility and imagine Viktoria Luise von Preußen, after whom this square is named, strolling here herself.
