Findlingspark Nochten, Geological park in Görlitz, Germany

The 20-hectare park features 7,000 Nordic boulders arranged across seven thematic gardens, including a stone garden, pond garden, and heath garden.

The park opened in 2003 on former lignite mining grounds, following geologist Hans Ulbrich's initiative to collect and place regional mining stones.

The visitor center presents an exhibition about the Ice Age, documenting the journey of Nordic boulders transported by ice sheets 10,000 years ago.

The park provides wheelchair access on firm gravel paths, audio guide applications in multiple languages, and equipment rentals including handcarts and mobility aids.

The park contains Europe's largest rock garden and displays over 100,000 heath plants, shrubs, and trees with seasonal blooms from March through November.
