Address
Fürstenweg 37

A 17th-century prince-archbishop built this garden to prank his guests. Follow the guide, sit at the stone dining table and water shoots up from the seats; walk through a grotto and it drips from the ceiling; stop for a photo and it spurts from the ground. The mechanical puppet theatre still runs on water power alone. After the tour, the glass gazebo from The Sound of Music sits at the far end of the park.
