Ruhwaldpark, Garden monument in Westend, Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, Germany.
The park spans over 101,801 square meters, featuring varied terrain with paths, wooden bridges, and a central pond within an urban forest setting.
Commercial councilor Ludwig von Schaeffer-Voit commissioned architect Carl Schwatlo to build a classicist villa named Schloss Ruhwald between 1867 and 1868.
The landscape design incorporates North American conifers and beech forests, reflecting 19th-century German garden architecture principles and local botanical preferences.
Multiple walking paths with different elevations connect various sections of the park, offering visitors access through entrances on Ruhwaldweg and Spandauer Damm.
An artificial mountain constructed from rock rubble at the western edge once held an angel statue commemorating Schaeffer-Voit's son.
