Victoriapark

Victoriapark is a landscaped grounds with heritage monument status in Kronberg im Taunus, stretching across sloping terrain beneath Schloss Friedrichshof. The area features three connected ponds formed by the Winkelbach, a tributary of the Westerbach.

The grounds originated around 1900 as a setting for the Kaiser Friedrich III monument, with land provided by the city of Kronberg and Empress Friedrich. This initiative established it as a significant public space in the town's early modern history.

The Anton Burger Monument near Schillerweiher honors the co-founder of the Kronberg painter colony with a bronze bust and deer sculptures. The site reflects the artistic importance this place held for the town's creative community.

The upper section offers a large playground, tennis courts, and a mini-golf course, while multiple pathways connect different zones throughout the grounds. Visitors can easily move between areas and find access points scattered around the perimeter.

A bronze sculpture titled 'Hommage a Pablo Casals' stands above Schillerweiher, marking the connection between the grounds and Kronberg Academy. This artwork links the park's history with the musical training cultivated in the town.
