Hiking
The nucleus of today's city garden was created in 1790 on the slope of the High Bank. Here, the Vegesack country physician and botanist Albrecht Wilhelm Roth created the "Botanical Garden of A.W. Roth" ("Hortulus Botanicus A.W. Rothii"). Here he planted more than 600 species of trees and shrubs in pots, which he sourced from all over the world.
From 1923 onwards, the city of Vegesack gradually acquired plots of land on the high bank, which was necessary until 2000 to achieve the current size of the city garden.
