Romischer Garten

oberhalb Falkensteiner und Falkentaler Weg, Blankenese, Hamburg, Germany

 

This park with Mediterranean flair is located above the extension of the famous Strandweg in Blankenese. Its last owners, the Warburg family, gave the park to the city of Hamburg in 1951. There is a staircase leading up to it between Falkensteiner and Falkentaler Weg. It's well worth climbing it, because from up here you get a grand view of the river Elbe and Nesssand island. Of course, there is a less strenuous way to get up here as well. The terraced park is part of the chain of Elbparks and is one of the most remarkable historic gardens in Hamburg. There is an amphitheatre where you can act out spontaneously improvised drama scenes. Romantic meetings are also possible here, as the park is always open and even has a rose garden.
