Guided Story

Imagine standing in a lush green oasis, surrounded by towering trees whose leaves whisper in the breeze. Do you hear the gentle splash of the pond? Look to your left, and you'll spot the Lutherkirche, its bells sometimes breaking the tranquil silence. Did you know this park was once the garden of a wealthy merchant? Johannapark is named after Johanna, the merchant's wife, who shared her garden with the city. As you stroll further, you might come across the Clara Zetkin monument, a tribute to an important women's rights activist. In spring, the cherry blossoms bloom here, filling the air with their sweet fragrance. Take a moment now, sit on the grass, and soak in the peace.
