The Count's Park has a long tradition and has been known for over 200 years as a place for rest and relaxation . This was appreciated by the poet Friedrich Hölderlin and the tennis legend Gottfried von Gramm. Today, the historic Count's Park has evolved into a top-class health and balance resort, now run by the seventh generation of the family. Surrounded by a 64-hectare English landscape park are the six guesthouses , which house the hotel, restaurants, and spa areas. The park is ranked among the 10 most beautiful landscape gardens in Germany and is worth a visit for that reason alone. The owners' commitment is evident not only in their outward appearance but also behind the scenes. Sustainability is a top priority in a variety of ways.
