    Park ensemble characterized by water
    The name of this landscaped park near numerous museums and ministries is derived from the Palais Spee, the seat of the city museum on Schwanenspiegel / Berger Allee.


    Maximilian Friedrich Weyhe redesigned the fortress area south of the old town around 1806 and again in the 30s of the 19th century to form a park ensemble that was mainly characterized by water. He included an earlier bastion ("Marie Amalie"). 200-year-old plane trees, the rose garden at Palais Spee, the heavy bastion walls and sculptures set characteristic accents today.

    The Spee'sche Graben was created from 1806 on the demolition of blasted former fortifications in Dusseldorf and is named after the Palais Spee in the old town of Dusseldorf. Parts of the fortress walls can still be seen on the northern edge of the ditch that runs through the southern Düssel. The peninsula in Spee'schen Graben has been open to the public since 1945.
