Hedge maze Altjeßnitz, Baroque hedge maze in Raguhn-Jeßnitz, Germany.
The maze features two-meter-high hornbeam hedges creating a network of narrow paths within the Gutspark Altjeßnitz landscape gardens.
Established in the 18th century as part of the von Ende family estate, the maze remains intact despite the castle's destruction by fire in 1946.
The maze exemplifies German baroque garden design principles and stands as the largest historical labyrinth structure of its period in Germany.
Visitors can access the maze through the World HeritageCard program, which includes entry to additional attractions within the Altjeßnitz park complex.
Located in the Mulde floodplain, the maze sits near a 12th-century Romanesque fieldstone church containing medieval wall paintings and a Gothic altar.
