This is also ensured by cultural highlights such as the UNESCO World Heritage Site Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe, where the palace of the same name can be discovered. In addition to the magnificent neoclassical building, the striking statue of Hercules, which is an important landmark of the city, also awaits visitors here.
