Palmengarten, Cultural heritage park in Leipzig, Germany.
The Palmengarten spans 22.5 hectares in Leipzig-Lindenau, featuring a large pond of 11,050 square meters with an island connected by a bridge.
The park originated in 1888 and opened in 1899 under mayor Otto Georgi as an exclusive recreation center for upper social classes.
The garden incorporates numerous valuable trees and special shrubs from the former botanical garden nursery of Liebertwolkwitz transferred in 1960.
Visitors can reach the park using trams 3, 7, 8, and 15 at Angerbrücke station, or buses 74 and 130 that stop nearby.
A cast-iron pavilion from the 1897 Saxony-Thuringia Industry Exhibition remains at the pond's edge after being relocated to the garden.
