Guided Story

Can you feel the fresh breeze brushing against your skin? This is the perfect day to explore the lush Ernst-Thälmann-Park. Not only does it offer a respite from the city buzz, but it also holds a piece of history. Look around, do you see the imposing Ernst Thälmann Monument to your southeast? It's dedicated to the communist leader and gives the park its name. As you walk further, listen for the joyful sounds of children playing on the playground just beyond those trees. If you're in the mood for a bit of stargazing, the Zeiss-Großplanetarium is a short walk to the northwest. In spring, the cherry blossoms here are absolutely breathtaking.
