Experience Darmstadt’s cultural gem with a guided tour of Mathildenhöhe.
In 1899, Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig founded the artists’ colony on Mathildenhöhe, helping to establish Darmstadt as a center for Art Nouveau and modern European art. The colony aimed to bring art and everyday life closer together. Its work reflects early Modernism through innovative architecture, spatial design, and artistic experimentation.
Mathildenhöhe Darmstadt was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in July 2021. It includes the Wedding Tower, exhibition building, artists’ colony museum, plane tree grove, and residential houses – all significant examples of early 20th-century experimental architecture.
As part of the tour, we will take the elevator to the top of the Wedding Tower, where you can enjoy panoramic views over Darmstadt, Frankfurt, the Odenwald forest, and the Bergstraße region.
In the evening, we invite you to dinner at Restaurant Mathildenhöhe, located in the heart of the World Heritage Site. With views of the plane tree grove, the Wedding Tower, the Russian Chapel, and the Lily Pond, the setting offers a relaxed and elegant atmosphere. The evening provides a pleasant opportunity to network and connect with fellow guests.
