Brentanopark, Public park in Rödelheim, Germany

The Brentanopark spans four hectares along the Nidda River, featuring wide pathways, open meadows, and numerous tree species including a 260-year-old Ginkgo tree.

Frankfurt merchant Georg Brentano acquired the land in 1808 and expanded it to 14 hectares by 1823, transforming the original country house garden into a landscape park.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and the Brothers Grimm frequented the park, contributing to its reputation as a gathering place for German intellectuals in the 19th century.

The park connects to public transportation through bus lines 34 and 72, with stops near the entrance, while the S-Bahn station lies 500 meters from the grounds.

The white classical bathing temple and Petrihäuschen building remain as original structures, with the latter housing a museum dedicated to the Brentano family on its upper floor.
