    n the visual axis to the west through the park, the symmetrical, French-style part of the park is on the ground floor, equipped with sandstone sculptures and other decorative elements. A sandstone bridge and the wrought-iron bridge built on old ground in 2005 lead to the larger, English landscape park. The approximately 22 groups of baroque and rococo figures that adorned both parks before 1945 were - because they were created by the class enemy - destroyed and buried by authorized persons in the post-war period. Parts of it were excavated during leveling work near the oil house in 2004, cleaned and displayed in the castle.

    The English landscape park, which is criss-crossed by many paths, shows clear structures of Prince Pückler's park design. Centuries-old natural wonders can be found here, from the African tulip tree and ash maple to the native pedunculate oaks and beech trees.
