Lustgarten, Public garden on Museum Island, Berlin, Germany
The Lustgarten extends across a central area between the Altes Museum and Berlin Cathedral, featuring green spaces, pathways, and fountains.
In 1573, Elector Johann Georg initiated the transformation of swampland into a garden space by implementing drainage systems near his castle.
The granite bowl, weighing 70 tonnes and transported via River Spree in 1828, stands as a central element of the garden's design.
Multiple benches and grassy areas throughout the garden provide spaces for visitors to rest while exploring Museum Island's attractions.
The garden hosted a breakfast celebration inside its massive granite bowl during its 1834 inauguration ceremony.
