(20 pics) This water playground is located in the Günthersburgpark in the Frankfurt neighbourhood Bornheim. In the warm summer months, many people cavort here every day, there is games and splashing around in the water. It is a true little inner city paradise and a great adventurous experience, especially for the children but also for adult children.
I visited this place for years very often, but really belive me, there have been always people around. Also in winter and even at night. The photos at night wouldn´t have been good anyway. But one good aspect of this Corona desaster is, that you can go to places like that and you find them completely free of other people. I want that life will come back to the water games, they shall play around again or chill there. The place has something just relaxing. But after years now I could finally take a lot of photos freely only of these nice sculptures and the architecture of the square.
The whole complex is built like a pool or fountain surrounded by various creatively stone statues in positions that resemble an alternative swimming pool. From these statues or from additional accessories, such as a stone camera or a stone bag, water fountains bubble up when in operation. It is a beautiful and special playground. The translated texts on the information boards from the City of Frankfurt follows in the next text passage.
City of Frankfurt: The Frankfurt water play facilities in the Stadtwald, on the Lohrberg, in the Volkspark Nidda and in the Günthersburgpark have for many years been offering free play and paddling opportunities for children and families on warm days. The water play facilities are usually in operation between 11 am till 6 pm from mid-May to mid-September, when it is at least 25 degrees Celsius. In the event of poor weather prospects such as rain, storm or thunderstorm warnings, the systems are not started for safety reasons or are switched off in good time. For technical reasons, the systems will not start up again until the next day.
