Lustgarten, Historical park in Detmold, Germany
The Lustgarten spans over 2.2 hectares divided by the Werre River, featuring symmetrical layouts with rectangles, squares, and oval sections.
Count Hermann Adolf of Lippe established the first park layout following the Thirty Years' War in 1648, placing it north of the castle fortifications.
The garden incorporated French Baroque design principles by landscape architect André Le Nôtre, reflecting German adoption of French garden aesthetics.
The former park area now contains the largest parking structure in Detmold, extending from Schlossplatz to the northern Behringstraße.
A monument dedicated to Count Simon August stood on a round platform accessed by diagonal alleys before its relocation to Bad Meinberg.
