"Uns lütt Museum" Dargun

Dargun Castle Park

📍 Dargun

In Dargun Castle Park, you can stroll along historical paths, visit the castle grounds and the museum and browse in the Dargun monastery store. Today's castle garden shows traces of the Renaissance, Baroque and 19th century as well as a careful reconstruction in recent years. The parterre fields around the pavilion, indicated by slightly lower grass paths, are reminiscent of the design of the palace garden in Güstrow. The Renaissance garden was created under Duke Johann Albrecht, who was a frequent visitor to Dargun. The gardens were devastated during the Thirty Years' War. Under Duke Gustav Adolf, the palace garden was redesigned in the Baroque style. The old yew trees are the remains of Baroque topiary. The garden quarters are aligned with the tea pavilion, which was built around 1690. The relationship to the palace was important for the Baroque garden. The garden was accessed from the double flight of steps at the south-west tower. According to a plan by Klett, court gardener in Schwerin, the four-row chestnut avenue with red flowering chestnut trees was planted along the western castle entrance to the Yellow Gate in the last century and the pergola with hornbeams was created south of the church entrance. The agricultural school, which moved into the castle in 1873, used the castle garden for teaching purposes. After 1945, the grounds were parceled out for allotments and a small zoo was created. With the reconstruction of the garden, the allotments were relocated and an open orchard was re-established. Klett's arcade was reconstructed and one row of the four-row avenue was planted with red-flowering chestnut trees. Today, in the extensive park you can see yew trees that are over 300 years old, a hornbeam arcade, a ginkgo tree, a large orchard, a fish ladder completed in 2016 and the tea pavilion, which is used as the local registry office. A barrier-free circular path for visitors with limited mobility was completed in 2020. The park is open to the public and has plenty of free parking spaces and a public toilet. You can combine a walk in the park with a tour of the monastery and castle complex, a visit to "Uns lütt Museum" or a shopping spree in the Dargun monastery store.
