The Grünfelder Park in the pottery town Waldenburg (about 30 km west of Chemnitz) was built between 1780 and 1797 by Count Otto Carl Friedrich, Prince of Schönburg (1758-1800) and his wife Henriette Eleonore Elisabeth Countess Reuß von Plauen (1755-1825) created.
It was supposed to be the summer residence on the outskirts of the city, they called it "Greenfield" because it was created after impressions the Count got while traveling through England.
Special features are the classical buildings and the garden design with grotto, rock passage, health source and more.
Walking through the Grünfelder Park, I have been inspired by the beauty of the landscaped landscape since my childhood, as well as the gorgeous love that Henriette ("the best wife") and Otto ("the unforgotten") must have fulfilled.
You walk through this beautiful park and feel how it does body and soul well.

Very nice park. Waldenburg Castle is in the immediate vicinity.
The park crosses the former railway line of the Muldenthalbahn.
