Guided Story
Feel that gentle breeze on your face? That's the magic of this place. Look around and see the touch of Peter Joseph Lenné, who transformed this garden into a pleasure ground. Imagine it once was a kitchen garden! His redesign was a tribute to the elegance and harmony of nature. To the east, you can spot the Peace Church, and sometimes the sound of its bells drifts through the garden. In spring, the flowers burst into vibrant colors, while in autumn, the leaves form a golden sea. Take a moment to sit on one of the benches and soak in the tranquility.
