Based on plans by Lenné (the Prussian "Gardening Pope") the garden was expanded in the 19th century. While the general atmosphere remained baroque, the immediate surroundings, including the Greenhouse Garden and the shore area of the lake, became a classical English design. Today, the garden spans across more than 50 acres that are waiting to be explored and will let you experience highlights from several eras of ducal horticulture."
