Burg- und Kurpark in Bad Vilbel.
Bad Vilbel liegt im südlichstenTeil der Wetterau, einem sehr fruchtbaren Landstrich zwischen Vogelsberg und Taunus. Im Jahre 774 wurde die Gemeinde erstmals in einer Urkunde des Klosters Lorsch erwähnt und 817 die Existenz einer Quelle zur Salzhertsellung bestädigt.
Augrund der über zwanzig Heil- und Mineralquellen im Stadtgebiet erhielt Vilbel 1948 das Prädikat Bad.
An den Ufern des Flüsschens Nidda, das Bad Vilbel der Länge nach teilt und eine romantische Flusslandschaft mitten in die Stadt bringt, sind herrliche Parks entstanden. Neben der Ruine eines alten Wasserschlosses kann man hier viele Zeugnisse der Stadtgeschichte bewundern.

Germany? Before the beginning there was Ginnungagap, an empty space of nothingness, filled with pure creative power. (Sort of like the inside of my head.)And it ends with Ragnarok, the twilight of the Gods. In between is much fighting, betrayal and romance. Just as a good Godly story should be.Heroes have their own graveyard called Valhalla. Unfortunately we cannot show you a panorama of it at this time, nor of the lovely Valkyries who are its escort service.Hail Odin, wandering God wielding wisdom and wand! Hail Freya, hail Tyr, hail Thor!Odin made the many lakes and the fish in them. In his traverses across the lands he caused there to be the Mulheim Bridge in Cologne, as did he make the Mercury fountain, Mercury being of his nature.But it is to the mighty Thor that the Hammering Man gives service.Between the time of the Nordic old ones and that of modern Frankfort there may have been a T.Rex or two on the scene. At least some mastodons for sure came through for lunch, then fell into tar pits to become fossils for us to find.And there we must leave you, O my most pure and holy children.Text by Steve Smith.
