The Hercules Pond is the lowest terrace of the Baroque garden of Gottorf Castle, which Duke Friedrich III had built as the "New Work." The Hercules Pond was named after a giant statue depicting the hero (actually Heracles) fighting the Hydra.

In 1994, work began on recovering the more than 300 fragments of this statue and creating a replica, which was then inaugurated in 1997 along with the re-excavated pond.

Vandring

In the center of the Hercules Pond, below the Gottorf Baroque Garden, stands a nearly six-meter-high water-spouting sculpture group depicting Hercules, wearing a lion's cape and carrying a jagged club on his shoulder, fighting the Lernaean Hydra, a multi-headed dragon. Hercules thus allegorically represents the strong and courageous ruler fighting evil.

The sculpture, created around 1640, is reminiscent in its theme and execution of a work by the Dutch sculptor Adriaen de Vries (1556–1616), created in Augsburg in 1602. However, the Gottorf Hercules is attributed to the Dutch sculptor Cornelis van Mander, who worked as a court sculptor in Gottorf.
