Ernst-Ehrlicher-Park, English garden and monastic garden in Hildesheim, Germany.
Ernst-Ehrlicher-Park is an English garden in Hildesheim with winding paths, open lawns, and mature trees throughout. The grounds feature three connected ponds and sit near a historic church building.
The land was originally part of a monastery founded in the 12th century where monks maintained fish ponds and cultivated the grounds. In the 19th century the site was transformed into a landscaped park.
The garden is named after the architect Ernst Ehrlicher who designed it. Today visitors use the paths and open areas to spend time in nature and explore the different sections at their own pace.
The park has multiple walking paths and many benches spread throughout for resting and taking in the surroundings. It is easy to access and open to visitors year-round.
The park is home to protected ant colonies and flowering parasitic plants found in specific areas. At night visitors may spot owls and bats using the grounds as a habitat.
