Accessible Ulm/Neu-Ulm
The city of Ulm/Neu-Ulm prides itself with an inclusion project that has enabled state-of-the-art and barrier-free tourist navigation on the Danube. The excursion boat ›Ulmer Spatz‹ was converted between 2013–2015 to become fully accessible to all guests. The piers close to the Metzgerturm tower and the Friedrichsau meadow were also modernised.

Our sensory garden is also designed in such a way as to be accessible to all people. It allows visitors to enjoy a wide variety of olfactory and tactile experiences. This little oasis of calm is situated right at the city centre close to the Kobelgraben moat. A general map provides an overview of the various symbols referring to shrubs and flower beds, the fountain or the banks. You can use our guidance system to feel your way through Germany's oldest sensory garden.
