    The Ellernteich is located in the middle of the Rastede castle park near the tournament ground. A walk around the Ellernteich is recommended.

      The Ellernteich is a real curiosity - because this pond was created twice.
      The Oldenburg Grand Duke Peter Friedrich Ludwig had a park built next to his summer residence here in Rastede.
      His son and successor Paul Friedrich August expanded the complex in the style of an English landscape park. As a result, in 1842 the local lowland, which was overgrown with alders (Ellern in Low German), was converted into a fish pond.

      How complex the undertaking was can be seen from the fact that the construction of the pond was only completed six years later, in 1848. With its completion, a new line of sight emerged from the castle over the Ellern and Mühlenteich ponds to the water mill.

        In the castle park, the Ellernteich is beautifully embedded by trees and bushes
