And if you want to know what BASF stands for, it’s Badische Anilin- und Soda-Fabrik (Baden Aniline and Soda Factory). If you’re pressed for time there’s an interactive visitor ce...
In the Rhine, some way south of the city is a semi-circular river island that has recently become the most sought-after residential address in Ludwigshafen. Now, Parkinsel isn’t actually man-made as it broke away from the land in the 1890s when the harbour was dredged. Curving with a bend in the river, the eastern half of Parkinsel is a large cresc...
In the Oggersheim district is an imposing church erected in 1775 in a style combining Baroque and Neoclassicism. The church also incorporates an earlier chapel from 1729, which is based on the Santa Casa in the Italian pilgrimage town of Loreto. Inside that chapel is an image of Mary, Mother of God flanked by two angels by the 18th-century Mannheim...

In 30 hectares of deep woodland south of Ludwigshafen is an animal park that has European species living in huge paddocks. The park has semi-wild, humane environments for species like bison, aurochs, red deer, wild boars, lynxes and wild cats. Outside these enclosures, you can make your way through an open space where moufflons, peacocks, roe and s...
The literary giant Friedrich Schiller stayed at this house in Oggersheim from 13 October to 30 November 1782. At that time the building was the Zum Viehhof Inn, and when Schiller was here he was actually travelling incognito as “Dr Schmidt” as he had come to Mannheim to watch the premiere of his play the Robbers against the orders of the Duchy of W...

The Ebertpark is named after Friedrich Ebert, who was President of Germany at the time. The best way to visit is to take the entrance at Erzbergerstraße, where you’re met by an elegant formal garden with geometri...
Ludwigshafen’s most famous son was the influential 20th-century Marxist philosopher Ernst Bloch. His enduring work is the Principle of Hope, about mankind’s natural orientation towards a socially and technologically improved future. This was written while he was living in America and was published in three volumes in the 1950s. The Ernst-Bloch Zent...
Right in front of the Wilhelm-Hack-Museum is a much-lauded sculpture by Swiss architect and artist Max Bill. Endlose Treppe was completed in 1985 to celebrate Ernst Bloch’s 100th anniversary, and the winding stairway of 19 granite steps was intended to symbolise Bloch’s Principle of Hope. One of the compelling things about the sculpture is that all...
