Römischer garden, Heritage garden in Blankenese, Germany
The Römischer garden spreads across multiple terraces along the Elbe River, featuring stone steps, flowerbeds, and a central pond with water reflections.
A merchant named Anton Julius Richter established this garden in the late 19th century, drawing influence from his Italian travels and architectural preferences.
The garden includes an outdoor hedge theater from 1924 where performers move through circular lawns surrounded by carefully trimmed yew hedges.
Visitors need to climb 128 stone steps from Falkensteiner Ufer to reach the garden, which offers views of the Elbe and Harburger Hills.
The central lawn, named Römische Terrasse, runs parallel to the Elbe and contains a small pond designed as a Mirror of Heaven.
