    Hiking

    As early as 1700, a chronicle mentions the baroque pleasure garden. A travel guide states:
    "The palace garden is open to everyone for strolling and is an ornament to the city. In addition, the beautiful view that is offered to the stroller ensures pleasant enjoyment."


    The garden was framed by several buildings, such as the cavalier house, the orangery and the former stable building with the riding arena, which were built between 1695 and 1710. The palace park was converted into a cultural park in 1963/64. The pond was created, aviaries and a game enclosure were built.
