Blücherpark

Blücherpark is a public green space in Bilderstöckchen with geometric paths crossing three distinct levels and ornamental concrete spheres positioned at path junctions alongside a circular flower bed at the center. A 1.5-hectare pond sits within the layout, defined by varied elevation changes and stepped access points throughout.

The park was created between 1911 and 1913 and ranks among Germany's earliest public spaces built in modernist style. Garden architect Fritz Encke designed it as a model for park culture of that period.

The park displays artificial stone lion figures and balustrades that reference classical garden design. These elements shape how the space looks and invite visitors to explore its different sections.

The pond allows for boating activities from spring through autumn, with a small boathouse and stepped shoreline access available. Evenly spaced entrances around the grounds make it straightforward to reach the park from different directions.

The grounds stretch roughly 700 meters long and 200 meters wide with a forest-like border offering multiple rest zones. This design creates a nature-filled character within an urban neighborhood without feeling overwhelming or crowded.
