balhannah Says: Bad Kreuznach was interesting to walk around, I just wish I had longer to see more!Not only do you have to look up, but also on the ground. There were some interesting piece's.Of course, there were the nice wrought iron sign's, and there were some very unusual face's on one...
balhannah Says: The Catholic church of St. Nicholas on the egg market is the oldest religious building in the town. The Church was built in 1266, and originally was used as a Monastery church of the Carmelite Order.If you can visit the interior, expect to see ornate carvings, grave cover...
balhannah Says: The Egg Market is a square, surrounded by the church of St. Nicholas, half-timbered houses and the medieval Butcher's quarter. This was the market place for fruit, fish and pottery. I really liked the house in my photo. Start's of small, and the higher the building, the...
balhannah Says: The St. Paul Lutheran Church is located on an island, close to the canal and mill. For many year's, it was the only building in the city near the old bridge, on the other side were Cattle pastures.This Gothic style Bascilica, was consecrated in 1332, and originally dedicated...
balhannah Says: The Bridge house's are something you shouldn't miss seeing in Bad Kreuznach, infact, they were my favorite sight in the Town!These house's, which now are Shop's, some in need of attention, were built in 1480 because of a housing shortage.The old bridge, built around 1300,...
BAD Kreuznach, a famous German spa town
Trekki Says: Bad Kreuznach is a famous spa town, the prefix Bad refers to bath and healing. It becomes very obvious when walking through the town, there are many clinics and practises dotted around the town and of course the Kurhotel (spa hotel) in the middle of all these. Bad Kreuznach...
Salt heals, that’s what the region is famous
Trekki Says: Bad Kreuznach is not the only spa town at Nahe river, just around the corner at Nahe river is Bad Münster am Stein (usually the town name has the suffix Ebernburg, referring to the nearby castle). Both towns cooperate in almost every treatment question and they also share...

brauwerk: Beer and Salt Water?
TomInGermany Says: After hiking in the hills surrounding Bad Kreuznach you might want to stop off at the Brauwerk (Beer Factory) for a relaxing stop at their Beer Garden or a nice lunch or dinner in their restaurant. Brauwerk got its name from a radio show contest which let the listeners...
Die Schirmbar: Schirmbar, cute name, good food
Trekki Says: My Mexican colleague and I were very hungry after our little tour through Rheinhessische Schweiz (see off path section) and Bad Kreuznach, and were happy to find this open air restaurant with its prime view to the bridge houses. And when our meals came, we were even more...
Jerelis Says: Are you nervous about taking your baby or child on a plane trip? You aren't alone, most parents are nervous about it. We have moved with the kids to Alkmaar by car this holiday and drove some distances by car on when we were there and we learned a few things that hopefully...
Getting there is easy, train and low fees
Trekki Says: Getting to Bad Kreuznach is very easy! Train:Trains from Mainz run every 30 minutes and take only half an hour until Bad Kreuznach and Bad Münster am Stein. The train station in Bad Münster is in the middle of the town, and it is easy to walk to the sights to see. In case of...
mtncorg Says: This is a fairly recent fest for Bad Kreuznach - maybe in the last 20 years. People get out on the water in little boats and try to joust one another into the water, similar to a festival in Mainz, I think. Also like the nearby Rhineland-Pfalz capital city, Bad Kreuznach has...
mtncorg Says: There are lots of places to spend time in Bad Kreuznach (and in nearby Bad Muenster am Stein/Ebernburg) while enjoying a typical German Kur. It however seems to be a dying tradition as it becomes harder and harder for people to get someone else to pay for their Kur. It is a...
Helpfulness
Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, the catchy title of the 1992 bestseller by John Gray, succinctly expresses an ancient dilemma. What--if anything--do men's and women's brains do differently?
The general statement that men and women respond and behave differently under the same circumstances is true; For example, from the crib, male babies tend to be more aggressive and females more passive. As adults, in spatial operations, men have the edge in such skills as negotiating a maze, reading a map, and quickly discriminating between right and left. Men also perform better than women when asked to visualize an object and imagine rotating it. On the other hand, women tend to perform better than men when asked to look at objects of different shapes, sizes, and colors, and then to group them in some order.
This still doesn't explian why my female co-driver turns the map all around when I'm asking for the road to travel, while I like the map at one point so I can better visualize our position. Help!

TourNatur Hike - tough but worth it.
TomInGermany Says: This hike was probably one of the best hike’s I’ve been on since coming to Germany. Although it is a pretty strenuous one with two steep hills (to include steps), some rocky stretches and a length of 11.5 miles, the views and interesting sites along the way are well worth...
Italy and some more legends and stories
Trekki Says: I can only highly recommend not only to visit the two spa towns while in the region, but also to spend some time exploring the region itself. The part of Rheinland Pfalz east of Bad Kreuznach is being called Rheinhessische Schweiz (= Switzerland of Rheinhessen) and it is a...

Staying awhile? You might want to join the local Rudderverein/Rowing Club - Crueznacker Ruderverein - which uses the still waters along the south course of the Nahe river to practise their shells upon. the boathouses are on the east side from the Brueckenhaueser. A German version of the Thames!
Equipment: Get to be a member and you get to use the equipment hoarded in the boathouses.

Extremely excellent tourist information
Trekki Says: First of all, Bad Kreuznach’s tourism service provides an excellent website. It takes some time to get used to the navigation, but once you got around this, it is a wealth of helpful information. In the German version for example they have descriptions 10 different walking...
Trekki Says: Even if you won’t spend much time in Bad Kreuznach (like I did with only three hours in May 2009), you cannot help but notice the many fine old houses around the “Kur” (spa/health) section, which show how important Bad Kreuznach was already since a long time. I loved these...
