An almost hidden back entrance to the Gut Hedwigsburg castle park! Beautifully situated, but the castle was destroyed in World War II.

You'll want to take some time here to enjoy everything. There's a large information board with interesting facts. The photo board in the park gives a good impression of what the castle looked like before its destruction. A short break by the pond rounds off the experience.

Aptly, you cross the Oker River here on Brückenstraße. It's always worth a look 😊

The Oker is a 128.3 km long left tributary of the Aller in Lower Saxony (Germany). It rises southeast of the mountain town of Altenau at an altitude of 900 meters, on the Bruchberg in the Harz National Park. Due to its tributaries from the Brocken area, it is one of the most water-rich regional waterways. It was first mentioned in 747 as Ovacra in connection with the Oker crossing in Ohrum, making this place, together with Schöningen, the oldest mentioned in writing in Lower Saxony. Ohrum was also the scene of a mass baptism staged by Charlemagne. Other historical locations include the imperial palace of Werla and the cities of Braunschweig and Wolfenbüttel. South of Schladen, it also runs through Saxony-Anhalt in several places for short stretches. Part of its catchment area, the Ilse and the Ecker, also lies in this federal state. (Source: Wikipedia)
