Herrenkrugpark, Heritage park in Magdeburg, Germany

The Herrenkrugpark extends along the eastern bank of the Elbe River, featuring extensive tree-lined paths and landscaped gardens within its grounds.

The park originated in 1676 when Magdeburg city council established a guard house that later became a tavern for local residents.

Peter Joseph Lenné, the royal Prussian garden director, redesigned the park in 1829 following the principles of English landscape architecture.

The park connects to the city center through line 6 tram service, stopping at Herrenkrug station on Herrenkrugstraße.

A cast iron lion statue from 1845 honors Mayor Francke, surviving World War II damage and subsequent restoration efforts.
