Best places: Tourist attractions in Saarbrucken, Germany

👍👍 Came here today with my three kids ages 6, 4, and 2, and a friend with her 6 year old. I wore the 2yo and also had an extra carrier for the 4yo, which came in very handy. I didn't bring my double BOB stroller, based on others' reviews, but looking back, it would have worked for the bulk of the walk...

Historic ironworks, now closed & restored to show the area's extensive industrial heritage.

Massive, wooden spiral observation platform with panoramic views & concessions nearby.

Nature reserve specializing in birds of prey for falconry shows, plus a petting zoo & playground.

👍👍 A very beautiful and beautifully located castle ruin, which is also maintained by the local association. The view over the Saar-Hunrück is very beautiful, and the Saarpolygon can also be seen in the distance. Children and non-adults *g* can also crack a little. Parking is free and not far away.

👍👍 Wonderful views here! Go here for a beautiful sunset.

Elevated wooden bridge through a forest path, which ends at a lookout tower with striking views.

Museum recreating the sights, sounds & smells of prehistory, with a dinosaur show & kids' play area.

Varied animals live within this 17-hectare, free-entry park with educational paths & a playground.

Park & research center with landscaped enclosures holding wolf species from around the world.

👍👍 This museum is a hidden gem! We felt so welcomed by the museum staff, in particular a kind and very knowledgeable staff member. He translated a lot of the German exhibits to English for our family. My 8 year old was so impressed with all of the history that the museum had. The coolest part of the mu...

👍👍 Came here today on a cool, cloudy August (2022) Friday afternoon with my three kids (ages 6, 4, and 2 years) and a friend and her 6 year old. I set "Parkplatz zum Saar Polgyon" as my Google Maps GPS destination and was brought directly to the parking lot, though it felt like that lot was really mea...

Tranquil park with terraced & rose gardens, a regular events program & outdoor cafe-restaurants.

Protected suburban forest with displays on indigenous animals at a visitor center & walking routes.

Massive Celtic fortification from the 1st century BC, with a replica village & forested trails.

👍👍 Came here on a Friday August afternoon with my three kids nearly ages 6, 4, and 2). We were able to drive all the way up to the castle, where there were multiple spots available (I'd guess there are about 10 spots, and only 3 were taken). I suggest making the "Grimburg WC" your Google Maps GPS desti...

👍 Came here today with a friend and our combined children ages 6,6, 4, and 2 years old on a warm but rainy/overcast August 2022 afternoon. I had assumed based on a quick look at the satellite view on Google Maps that this was a very small garden with a few waterfalls to walk through. I was mistaken -...

Medieval castle ruins with audio tours & seasonal events such as summer open-air games.

👍👍 August 2022: wieder ein langweiliges Museum? Mitnichten. Tolle Experimente, man läßt sich Zeit und man bekommt die Zeit. Genug Experimente für alle da :-). Ein Grund mehr, Pirmasens zu besuchen.

👍 It's nice to hike around the woods here. If you're happen to come across this tower, don't be shy and get inside. Here can walk up the (many many) stairs. It's a nice little workout and you will be rewarded with a nice view of the town and the university. If you're up for some fun, sing a song when...
