From 1782, Duke Georg I had the English Garden laid out north of the city, which was completely enclosed by the growing city in the following decades. The court gardener family Buttmann (Siegmund Friedrich B., Karl Ludwig B. and Theodor B.) was responsible for the design and maintenance for three generations.

Already in the first few years a number of small architectures were created in the park, which should invite you to linger in keeping with the spirit of the times. These were the “Temple of Harmony” built in the Asian style, the “Hermitage”, the “Blue House”, the “Fisherman's Hut” and an orangery. This also included a complex of artificial ruins in the Gothic style, where the main entrance was located in the first decades and which have been preserved almost unchanged to this day. The other buildings with the exception of the orangery disappeared again in the course of the 19th century. From 1835 a number of ornamental fountains were built and the main entrance has since been on the south side of the park at the transition to the old town.

Artificial ruins, but they look great in the English garden and are a bit older, so quasi ancient artificial ruins.
