Near it, there is the City Hall. It is an architectural monument of the earlier period. The City Hall was built in 1596 but didn’t exist even for a hundred years. In 1636, the City Hall was completely ruined in a fire. The new building at its site was built in 1641. The construction was seriously damaged in the period of the Second World War. The City Hall was last reconstructed in 1996.
One of the most beautiful buildings in the city is the Kreuznacher House. This luxurious mansion was built for one of the local merchants in 1539. In the 17th-18th century, the old house belonged to many outstanding owners. Today, it serves as a tourist office.
The amazing Karthaus Park also attracts not only with its nature, but also from the historical point of view. At one time, there was a great monastery in the place where the park is located now. At the beginning of the 18th century, it was decided to make a royal garden here. Then, the monastery was left in disrepair and destroyed. At its site, a wonderful park with branchy trees, flower beds and other decorative elements was made. Today, one of the main attractions in the park is an old indoor gallery. It was planned to create a beautiful resort here. However, this plan hasn’t been executed, as there are precious mineral springs in the park.
