Schlossgarten Hanau, Heritage park in central Hanau, Germany.
The Schlossgarten is a park in downtown Hanau with large open lawns, walking paths, and a series of ponds fed by the Kinzig River. The grounds include trees from different regions and feature semicircular fortified terraces from its historical past.
A landgravine founded the garden in 1766, creating one of the first English landscape gardens on mainland Europe. The design established new standards for how parks were understood and created at that time.
The garden reflects an English landscape design style from the 1700s that shaped how parks were built across Europe. Walking through today, you can see how this approach to garden design has influenced the open spaces around you.
The park has recreational areas for different visitors, a playground for children, and a beer garden for refreshment. Benches line the paths throughout, making it easy to stop and rest in many locations.
A monumental Pyramidal Oak tree planted around 1830 stands as a protected natural landmark in the garden. This rare tree specimen draws the attention of visitors interested in nature and old growth.
