Perfect Holidays in Russelsheim
- For those who have a passion for motoring, Russelsheim is the place to be. The home of car manufacturers Opel, it is where founder Adam Opel began as a trainee mechanic and founded his original sewing machine factory. Cars were not a short step away. Hyundai, the Korean manufacturers, also have their European base here. This is the place to be if you want to learn more about cars.
- The Rhein-Main Adventure Forest is located in Russelsheim's Ostpark, a safe and exciting way to spend the day. Located in the east park, beside the "Waldbembelsche" (beer garden), this giant playground caters to all ages and expertise, so even the complete beginner can go in and have a good time. If you're an expert, however, there are some intense challenges set by the sport-orientated people of Russelsheim.
- If you love golf, then get ready for the next big thing: disc golf. Disc golf is exactly what it says; golf, but played with discs. This new element brings some silliness to the game that makes for a relaxing and amusing time with friends or family, rather than the pursuit of the win.
Top Attractions in Russelsheim
- For a soothing pint after a day of playing disc golf, you should go to the Kleines Russelsheim Brauhaus. A typical German microbrewery, you can't really go wrong with the hearty, traditional food and range of drink.
- If you fancy a curry, head down to the Shahi, where you can be served food made using the "original recipes of the royal Mughal cuisine". It's worth going here just for the décor alone; the fabulously ornate chairs, exotically dressed windows and gilded wall decorations give the impression that you are in a small patch of India, right in the centre of Germany.
- The Waldschwimmbad is a beautiful one; set in an idyllic location in the woods, with spacious lawns, sports areas that cater to a range of specialities and a children's play area, this small, simple paradise is perfect for a day of rest and relaxation away from the hustle and bustle of the town.
