Schlosspark (Chateau Park) Baruth
If you are looking for recreation through a trip to nature, you'll be rewarded in the Schlosspark (Chateau Park) Baruth.
The Baruth Chateau Park was designed by Peter Joseph Lenné. He created the landscape garden for the royal family von Solms.
The park spreads out over 20 hectare in north-southern direction along the eastern town edge.
The park was preserved in its complete form.
Lenné's design was depicted in a plan by O. Reder from the year 1838.
Straight-lined ditches run through the whole park, this goes back to the bog drainage.
This park has two picturesque ponds, which are branched off through the ditches.
Curved paths mark the chateau park itself, individual parts of the park are connected through bridges.
While closed buildings dominate in the north, many individual groves and solitary trees surround the meadows in the south.
A riding area, kept in the princely colours of blue and yellow, was originally part of the park.
A forest pavilion served for the suspension of killed game; near the palace was a flower garden as well as a nursery.
The park is open to the public, admission is free.
