Park Hohenrode

Park Hohenrode, Historical park in Nordhausen, Germany

Park Hohenrode is a 10-hectare park in Nordhausen, Thuringia, laid out from 1874 on a former south-sloping field. Its tree collection, documented in plant lists maintained by the German Dendrological Society, includes a champion Ohio buckeye. The square Kneiff Villa, designed by Ludwig Bohnstedt in Italian Renaissance villa style, dominates the grounds, with a coach house, garden pavilion and greenhouse nearby.

Carl Kneiff (1829–1902), who had made his fortune with the Kneiff-Tabak company, commissioned the park in 1874 on former farmland of the Kneiff family, about 25 Morgen sloping south. Heinrich Siesmayer, known for the Palmengarten in Frankfurt, planned it. After inheriting the park in 1902, Fritz Kneiff extended it with Philipp Siesmayer, and the Verlobungsbrücke of 1912 joined the two parts.

The park's tree collection was assembled by Carl and Fritz Kneiff, both members of the German Dendrological Society, and documented in plant lists that were later continued and updated. One tree, an Ohio buckeye, is recognised by the society as a Champions-Tree. Since 2012 the actress Susanne Bormann has been the park's ambassador.

The park is open for walks on its paths; the Kutscherhaus beside the villa is a building of the estate, not a cafe, so bring your own refreshments. The grounds slope southward from the villa, and the 1912 Verlobungsbrücke links the older and newer sections.

A champion tree recognised by the German Dendrological Society grows here: an Ohio buckeye. Carl and Fritz Kneiff were both members of the society, and their plant lists were kept and updated over the years.
