★★★★★a year ago- sehr gut gestallteter Platz zum hin setzen - zum nach denken & ruhe genießen - ein öffentlicher Grill, Tennistisch Platte & ein Fußball Kicker ( für den Fußball kicken ein Ball mit bringen sonst macht es kein Spaß) ist vorhanden
Rob
★★★★★4 years agoSchöner kleiner Park. Ideal um bei schönem Wetter eine Mittagspause zu verbringen. Alternativ kann man den fest installierten Grill für ein Barbecue nutzen. Es gibt auch eine fest installierte Tischtennisplatte. In der Dämmerung kann man schon mal Hasen beobachten, die hier wohnen und spielen.
