This elegant sunken baroque garden comes with a secret: strolling past the flower beds and
cascading fountain, you are actually standing in a reclaimed gravel pit! Ponder this as you
sip a cuppa in the cafe, then check out the latest exhibit in the adjacent gallery. In summer
you can join locals for free alfresco classical, jazz and world-music concerts.
From U-/S-Bahn station Neukölln, follow Karl-Marx-Strasse north for 250m, turn left on
Schierker Strasse and continue 125m to the park.

This 18th-century country estate, with its frilly neo-Renaissance facade and surrounding
park, once served as the residence of Prussian ministers and high-ranking court officials.
Today it's a nice place for strolls, picnics or summer concerts in the park or to catch a
glimpse of the lifestyle of a well-to-do Berlin family in the late 19th century by taking in the
museum's five period rooms.
