Guided Story
Can you feel the gentle breeze sweeping across the open lawns? This same breeze has been here since the garden's creation in 1720. Look to the south, and you'll see the majestic Welfenschloss. It's as if the old walls are whispering tales from centuries ago. Did you know the garden was initially designed as a Baroque garden? Over time, it transformed into this serene English landscape. Take a moment to sit on a bench and watch how the light plays through the trees. In spring, when the buds are just opening, this place feels especially enchanting.
