Guided Story
Can you hear the gentle rustling of leaves above? That's the sound of history coming alive here in the Sculpture Garden. Look to your left, and you'll see the ancient city walls, each stone whispering stories from centuries past. Imagine how these walls once protected the city while artists immortalized their visions in stone and metal here in the garden. Behind you stands the impressive Wyenturm, a silent witness to the passage of time. In spring, as new buds appear, each sculpture seems to come alive with fresh energy. Find a bench to sit down and let the blend of art and nature soak in.
