Guided Story

Can you feel the gentle breeze rustling through the ancient trees? It's like whispers from the past, telling tales from when this garden was newly created. Look around and imagine Friedrich Ludwig von Sckell, the mastermind behind this English landscape garden in the 18th century. Just behind you, the Oberstjägermeisterbach flows gently, adding a soothing melody to the park's ambiance. If you glance south, picture the cheerful chatter from the Biergarten Hirschau, a gathering spot for centuries. In winter, when snow blankets the ground, the garden transforms into a magical winter wonderland. Take a moment to soak in the tranquility this place offers right in the heart of the city.
