Old Course

Hessen, Germany

The Old Course at the Royal Homburger Golf Club is a Par 3 course located in the Kurpark of Bad Homburg. It is recognized as the oldest golf course in Germany, with the club's origins tracing back to 1889 when it was founded by the Prince of Wales. The course is designed specifically to focus on the short game, offering a distinct experience from the club's adjacent 18-hole New Course. The setting provides a historic and natural environment, situated within the Kurpark landscape. As the "Home of Golf in Germany," the Old Course serves as a significant landmark for the sport's history in the country. The course layout is compact, catering to players looking to refine their approach shots and putting skills in a parkland setting. Tournament activity on the Old Course includes events such as the HGV-ICE Tour and various ProAm competitions, indicating its role in hosting competitive and developmental golf events. The course is managed with specific Platzregeln (local rules) and has a dedicated scorecard and handicap system separate from the New Course.
