Focke-Garten

The Focke-Garten spans 4.5 hectares with numerous botanical species, garden sculptures, and multiple rectangular terraces connected by brick walls and steps.

The garden occupies the site of a former poorhouse built between 1696 and 1698, later transformed into the Focke Museum until its destruction in 1944.

The garden features an equatorial sundial from 1747 and several sculptures depicting mythological figures, including bronze statues of Apollo and Hephaistos.

The park remains accessible for free even during museum closure hours and offers picnic blankets for rent at the museum ticket counter.

A 350-year-old oak tree stands near the garden, ranking among the oldest trees in Bremen, while giant sequoias showcase the city's international trading connections.
