Is there a better place to grasp the soul of Bamberg than here at the Aussichtsplatform Gärtnerstadt? This platform isn’t just a place to marvel at the view. It’s a window into Bamberg’s history, a celebration of its unique character. Standing here, you’re at the edge of a legacy that dates back to the Middle Ages. Imagine a time when market gardens weren’t a novelty, but the lifeblood of Bamberg! For centuries, the heart of this city was a patchwork of gardens. These gardens, the Gärtnerstadt, fed the city and fueled its economy. Today, this open space embedded in the city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Aussichtsplatform Gärtnerstadt, completed in March 2012, offers amazing views of this special place. As you gaze out over the gardens, notice the long, narrow plots of land. Each one tells the story of a different gardener family, their lives woven into the very fabric of Bamberg. These families, the original “Zwiebeltreters” (onion walkers), were famous for their produce, especially onions and liquorice. They even exported their goods far beyond Bamberg’s borders! Though the number of market gardens has dwindled over the years, the spirit of the Gärtnerstadt lives on. The Aussichtsplatform Gärtnerstadt, with its information path, makes sure of that. So take a moment. Breathe in the fresh air. And let the spirit of the Gärtnerstadt, its history etched into the land, wash over you.
