Putbus Castle Park
Although Putbus Castle, once the stately home of the Princes of Putbus, was razed to the ground in 1962, the beautiful castle park is still a reminder of this magnificent time.
Magnolias and sequoias adorn the English-style garden. The park was laid out in 1804 by the founder of the town, Wilhelm Malte I zu Putbus, originally in the French style. It was later developed in the style of an English landscape park. The classicist palace around which the park was laid out was unfortunately demolished in the 1960s. The orangery, the stables, the mausoleum, the parish church and the castle church as well as the monkey and bird house are still preserved. Then as now, Putbus is not only famous for its castle and circus, but also for its scenic surroundings. It is not surprising that even Caspar David Friedrich visited the Putbus region. He incorporated the impressions he gained into his paintings "A View of Putbus" and "Landscape with Rainbow", for example.
Putbus Palace Park - history in the countryside on Rügen
Putbus Palace Park is one of the most beautiful historical parks in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. It was laid out in 1804 by Wilhelm Malte I zu Putbus, the founder of the neoclassical residential town of Putbus on the island of Rügen. Originally designed in the French style, the park was later transformed into an English landscape park. Majestic magnolias and imposing sequoia trees still characterize the image of this extensive park today.
The castle has disappeared - the park remainsThe neoclassical palace around which the park was once laid out fell victim to demolition in 1962. Nevertheless, several historic buildings still bear witness to the former splendor of the princely seat: the orangery, stables, mausoleum and the parish and palace church have been preserved. The historic monkey and bird house is also still on the park grounds.
Caspar David Friedrich and the landscape around PutbusThe charming surroundings of Putbus once even inspired the romantic painter Caspar David Friedrich. His impressions of the area were incorporated into works such as "A View of Putbus" and "Landscape with Rainbow" - an impressive testimony to how special this landscape in the heart of Rügen has always been.

Putbus Castle Church
● Putbus
The castle church in Putbus Park Until 1840, Putbus was part of the parish of Vilmnitz. In this year, the parish acquired its own parish registers and its own churchyard was consecrated. Putbus became an independent parish. Over time, the need to create a separate church building grew. Initially, the theater was to be converted into a church. However, as this plan met with resistance from the residents, the Kursalon in the park was converted into a church in 1891/92 - the upper galleries were removed and their windows moved inwards, and the open arcades to the dance hall were fitted with windows. The result was a three-aisled church. A church tower was erected in place of the northern extension, while the southern extension retained its shape. The church was consecrated on Reformation Day in 1892 and the bells rang for the first time on July 12, 1893. The castle church is impressively different from the brick churches typical of the island. It is flooded with light, with large arched windows opening onto the park. It forms an impressive ensemble with the neoclassical buildings in the park and in the adjacent streets.
