This fall, we kicked off the season with a visit to the Ludwigsburg Pumpkin Festival, set against the stunning backdrop of Ludwigsburg Palace in southern Germany. From giant pumpkin sculptures to seasonal treats like pumpkin soup and pumpkin waffles, the festival was a colorful, creative celebration of autumn. We explored the palace gardens surrounded by towers of gourds, harvest decorations, and crisp autumn air.

The adventure didn’t stop there — next, we headed to LEGOLAND Germany to celebrate Halloween in true brick-by-brick style. The park was decked out in spooky LEGO décor, and the kids loved the costumed minifigures, themed rides, and special Halloween events.

Between the royal pumpkin displays and the playful thrills of LEGOLAND, it was the perfect blend of fall traditions and family fun.
