What to do and see in Saarland, Germany: The Best Things to do Good for Big Groups

March 31, 2022 Malia Yoakum

The Saarland (German: das Saarland, pronounced [das ˈzaːɐ̯lant]; French: la Sarre [la saʁ]) is one of the sixteen states (or Bundesländer) of the Federal Republic of Germany. With its capital at Saarbrücken, it has an area of 2,570 km² and its population (as of 30 April 2012) is approximately 1,012,000. In terms of both area and population size – apart from the city-states of Berlin, Bremen and Hamburg – it is Germany's smallest state. The wealth of its coal deposits and their large-scale industrial exploitation, coupled with its location on the border between France and Germany, have given the Saarland a unique history in modern times.

Loved doing the treetop path and reaching the vantage point with the pictured view! It is a fairly simple path that took less than an hour. There are surrounding trails for further hiking. Loved it - highly recommend!

Don't miss it if you are in the vicinity. If you are interested in history, go there. You get an idea of the machinations to get to the second World war. If you are interested in technology, go there to see the steps to make iron highest degree. And if you are interested in economics, this is a prime example. Without the Montan union, Europe would not exist as it is today. And if you are interested in some awesome photography, go there.

Reviewed By caroline02016 - Queidersbach, Germany

While returning to Sankt Wendel since being back in Germany, I was happy to be able to enter the Basilica (which has always been locked on weekends)- A magnificent peaceful spiritual church for one who is seeking to pray in total silence and distractions during this unknown pandemic.
