Rectangular park on the Wandse |
Ahrensburger Strasse 14a Hamburg, Hamburg 22041 +49 (0)40 656 0913 |
This park in the Wandsbek district has a long history. Once a company owner from Hamburg planted oaks here, because he needed the oak bark to tan skins for his leather products. That was back in the 18th Century - in the meantime the formerly privately owned park, which used to be part of the Wandsbek estate, has become public greens. Its ponds are maintained, supplied and fished by local angling societies. The Alster bicycle trail also leads through this quiet and picturesque landscape along the Wandse brook. You can get some rest from the daily strain here and look at typical marsh and aquatic plants. A little bit further east there is a schoolgarden and a special botanic garden near Eichtalpark. The first has been designed systematically and shows bushes and flowers, as well as aquatic, poisonous and medicinal plants. The latter also has a lot of very interesting plants and information on them. Review © 2009, Wcities |
