Guided Story
Feel that gentle breeze rustling through the trees? In spring, you'll hear the lively chirping of birds building their nests in these old trees. Look to your right, there's a small lake – a perfect spot to watch ducks gently gliding across the water. Did you know this park was designed by Fritz Encke? It was originally a city project to give workers from the surrounding neighborhoods a green retreat. Behind you, at the edge of the park, are the residential areas that were once known as industrial suburbs. A walk here is like a little journey back in time to Cologne's past. Take your time and enjoy the tranquility that makes this place so special.
