Grab a coffee or tea at Bürkle. It is the closest option to the memorial and opens early enough to catch your first cup before the walk.
16:13
Walk to the Gottlieb Daimler Memorial in the Kurpark. Arrive here to see the original garden house workshop before the sun dips. Admission is free, but check that you are visiting between 14:00 and 17:00 on weekdays or 11:00 and 17:00 on weekends, as it is closed on Mondays.
16:53
Stand in the garden and watch the sun set toward the WSW. The low light highlights the historic workshop where Daimler and Maybach developed their early combustion engines.
17:23
Head to Wichtel for a drink. This pub is open until 23:00 on weekdays and weekends, making it a reliable spot for an evening wind-down after the sunset.
