Elisengarten, Urban garden in central Aachen, Germany
The Elisengarten features numerous walking paths, sitting areas, and diverse flower beds maintained throughout the year by professional gardeners.
Peter Joseph Lenné, a prominent landscape architect of the 19th century, designed this garden as part of Aachen's urban development plan.
The garden connects to the Elisenbrunnen fountain structure, reflecting the thermal water heritage that shaped the development of Aachen.
Located at Friedrich-Wilhelm-Platz, the garden remains open every day without entrance fees and permits visitors to bring their pets.
Archaeological excavations in the garden revealed Roman and medieval structures beneath the current landscaping, documenting multiple layers of city history.
