Facts and practical information

Castle Park-the Baroque-Romantic Castle Park in Erlangen located at the Margrave Castle, founded in 1700 as one of the first Baroque Franconia gardens. The Baroque Orangery was created soon. From 1786 the park was transformed into an English park. In 1825, a botanical garden was created in its northern part. In 1849 he was made available to the audience. Currently, the park's area is reduced by about half due to the creation of numerous university buildings, including clinics, around the park.
