24T03 Darmstadt: gutsy city, Mathildenhöhe
E02
In Darmstadt about 20-minutes south from Frankfurt by train, the Mathildenhöhe (Mathilda Heights) Artists’ Colony is a UNESCO World Heritage Site inscribed since 2021. Pictured in afternoon light: at left, the Wedding Tower by J.M. Olbrich in 1908; at right, the Russian Chapel by L.N. Benois in 1899; and at lower-centre, the Lily Basin by A. Müller in 1914.

I made the image above with an iPhone15 on 10 May 2024. I received neither sponsor nor support from any organization. This post composed with Jetpack for iOS appears on Fotoeins Fotografie at fotoeins DOT com.

Hi, Valerie. I’d always passed by Darmstadt between Heidelberg and Frankfurt, blissfully ignorant about some cool things to explore in Darmstadt; I finally spent a couple of days in Darmstadt on this trip. Overall, there’s a lot to like about architecture in Germany; various sites have been recognized and inscribed as World Heritage Sites. Thanks for your comment!
