Werner Litz Square

The Werner Litz Square in the Filseck Castle Landscape Park is a lovingly designed rest area that combines nature, art and remembrance. Several carved wooden figures - including Bruno, Mecki and Max and Moritz - are set up in a circle and give the square a special character. They not only invite children to marvel, but also create a cheerful, friendly atmosphere for adults. Seating between the figures makes the square an ideal place to take a break, have a chat or simply take in the surroundings.

The square is named after Werner Litz († 2018), who, as the long-standing honorary managing director of the Förderkreis Schloss Filseck, provided decisive impetus for the development of the castle and its park. Even during his time as mayor of Sparwiesen, he worked hard to preserve and revitalize the castle grounds.

When Filseck Castle was taken over by the Kreissparkasse Göppingen Foundation in 2008, the support group became even more important. Werner Litz was instrumental in shaping and influencing this process.

The Werner Litz Square commemorates his work and at the same time offers an inviting place for walkers, families and visitors to the park - a place to linger and express gratitude.
