    Eiscafe Candy

    Grab an ice cream or a coffee. Eiscafe Candy is open until 22:00, so you have plenty of time to find a seat before heading out.

  2. 17:59

    Stadtgarten

    Walk back to the Stadtgarten theatre. Use this time to stretch your legs and enjoy the evening air inside the grounds before the main event.

  3. 18:39

    Deutzer Stadtgarten

    Head to Deutzer Stadtgarten park. It is a 58-minute walk from the anchor, so leave the theatre area with enough buffer. Find a spot facing WSW to catch the sunset over the river.

  4. 19:09

    Antiquariat Heuberger

    End your evening with a browse at Antiquariat Heuberger. It is a short walk from the park and open until 17:30 on weekdays or 13:30 on Saturdays. Check if you have time before it closes.

Local tip

The walk from the Stadtgarten theatre to the park is long. If you want to avoid the full 58-minute trek, consider starting your ice cream stop closer to the park area, but ensure you are back at the theatre in time to walk together.

Check before you go

  • Antiquariat Heuberger closes at 17:30 on weekdays and 13:30 on Saturdays. On Sundays it is closed. Check the day of the week for your sunset visit to ensure the bookshop is open for your final stop.
