Landschaftspark Hohenstein, Landscape park in Barkelsby, Germany

Landschaftspark Hohenstein is a heritage park on the steep northern bank of Eckernförde Bay, extending across the municipality of Barkelsby in Schleswig-Holstein. The grounds feature several ponds and small lakes, especially in the eastern section, creating a natural water landscape connected by walking paths.

The estate became a manor house in 1802 and received a classical dwelling for Johann Diederich Cordes. Major landscape redesign happened after 1879 following a marriage between owners, with these changes completed by 1883.

The name Hohenstein refers to the estate, not a rock formation. The park's romantic layout dates from Adolph and Harriet Godeffroy's renovation, finished in 1883, as a memorial boulder above the terraced ponds records. A tea house with a thatched roof stands on the foundations of the former ice cellar, and a small estate museum displays agricultural equipment.

The estate is private and not open to the public, so the park, manor house and ponds can only be seen from outside; the whole ensemble is a listed monument. A small estate museum in Hohenstein displays agricultural equipment. The ponds, waterfall and rockery lie in the southern extension toward Eckernförde Bay, reached by the former bath pavilion site, now a campsite.

The hexagonal tower on the manor's south corner served as a belvedere; from it the view once reached the Baltic Sea, though reforestation of the Auetal now blocks that sightline. The east flight of stairs is flanked by two Molossian dogs carved from Carrara marble.
