Rose Garden Rostock
Rosengarten Rostock - historic gardens on the Baltic Sea
In the middle of Rostock, one of the largest cities in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern on the Baltic Sea, lies the rose garden - one of the oldest and most beautiful parks in the region. The elongated, flat park stretches between Steintor and Schwaansche Straße, parallel to Wallstraße, and offers visitors a green break from city life.
Garden architecture from the Wilhelminian era - Joachim Wilcken's legacy
Around 1860, garden architect Joachim Wilcken designed the rose garden in its current form. Characteristic elements include a shady avenue of lime trees, carefully laid out rose beds, extensive lawns and a fountain. The interplay of architecture and nature gives the garden its special, almost timeless character.
Relaxation and enjoyment of nature in the heart of Rostock
The beguiling scent of roses, the rustling of leaves in the old lime trees and the chirping of birds make the rose garden a popular place of tranquillity - not only for tourists, but also for many Rostock residents themselves. Anyone traveling along the Baltic coast and wanting to explore the urban flair of Rostock as well as the beach and sea will find a worthwhile stopover here. The city is also conveniently located for excursions to Stralsund, Greifswald or the Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula.
