The green heart of the city with its magnificent tree population, stream with eleven bridges and graduation building.
Today's Upper Kurpark with its casino, Ludwigs church and Valentin-Ostertag fountain was laid out in 1847 when Bad Dürkheim became a brine spa. In the lower part of the Kurpark, an English-style area, the Isenach flows along numerous shady seating areas under magnificent old giant trees and eleven bridges towards the water playground, providing refreshing fun for everyone. The Isenach begins its journey through the spa gardens at the spring pot. Shortly after the flower bridge, you can hop across to the other side at the ford. At the cascade basin, sandstone benches right next to the water offer the opportunity to refresh your feet in the cool water. At the water wheel, a model of the "mini graduation house" shows how the graduation house used to work without electricity. To the east, the graduation house invites you to take a deep breath and a fitness trail in the greenery invites you to exercise.
