Guided Story
You're standing in the Bürgerweide, a peaceful retreat just south of Worms' bustling city center. This area has a unique story — part of it was transformed into an unmanaged floodplain between 1999 and 2002 when the Rhine main dike was relocated. This allows nature to take its course, creating a landscape that changes with the seasons. To the southwest, you can find the Wormser Ried, a natural area that's just a short walk away and adds to the tranquility and charm of your visit here at the Bürgerweide.
