Klosterbergegarten, Public park in Magdeburg, Germany
The Klosterbergegarten is a park of about 11 hectares along the Elbe with curved paths through open meadows and wooded sections. The grounds include a society house with the Schinkel Hall, greenhouses with many plant species, and various garden areas.
Peter Joseph Lenné designed this park in 1825 on the grounds of a former monastery destroyed by French troops during the Napoleonic Wars. The Gruson Greenhouses were added in 1896, expanding the site with scientific gardens.
The Schinkel Hall in the society house displays early 19th-century German architecture and hosts regular concerts today. The place brings together culture and nature, drawing visitors who want to experience classical music within green surroundings.
The park is accessible via the Elbe Cycle Route, which connects the city center to the grounds and invites walking. You can enter from various points and find broad paths for pedestrians that wind through the green area.
The Gruson Greenhouses hold a large collection of exotic plants that visitors rarely encounter in such abundance at one location. This botanical rarity is a quiet highlight of the park that many overlook.
