Guided Story

Imagine, right here, Napoleon Bonaparte arriving to meet with Klemens von Metternich. Look around and feel the weight of history within these walls. To your left, the Hochreliefbrunnen reflects the grandeur of what was once a magnificent garden. Just behind you, the Johann-Ludwig-Bramsch-Monument quietly stands, a testament to times gone by. If you close your eyes, you might almost hear the carriages rolling over gravel, as elegantly dressed ladies and gentlemen strolled through the gardens. The scent of blossoms, the whispers of leaves in the breeze – it all made this place a stage for important meetings and decisions. Today, it's a hospital, but history continues to resonate in every stone and shadow.
