After the sovereign of the Principality of Calenberg , Duke Georg von Braunschweig-Lüneburg , declared Hanover to be his new residence in 1636, in the middle of the Thirty Years' War , the kitchen garden in Linden was completed by 1654 after the construction of the Leineschloss and the creation of the Great Garden in Herrenhausen . It served the Hanoverian court on the one hand to supply food, for example through fish farming and the operation of greenhouses, with its useful and ornamental plants and other decorative elements, but also as a baroque pleasure garden .

Almost a century after the kitchen garden was laid out - the court of the Welfs had meanwhile been relocated to Great Britain due to the personal union between Great Britain and Hanover - the chief court architect Johann Paul Heumann built the kitchen garden pavilion as a pleasure house and eye-catcher in the north wall of the kitchen garden the Koeniginstrasse and in the extension around 1850 a dirt road ran along it; the later created Fössestrasse .

Also at the time of the Kingdom of Hanover , when, in the course of industrialization, the court architect Georg Ludwig Friedrich Laves and the architect Ludwig Debo under Georg V submitted competing designs for the first residential buildings for workers in the largely undeveloped "Nedderfeld", Pavillonstrasse became 1859 which ran directly onto the kitchen garden pavilion.

When, after the Battle of Langensalza, the Kingdom of Hanover was annexed by Prussia in 1866 , the kitchen garden was dissolved that same year. Also in 1866, the garden was Portal in a private garden at the Ihme translocated . In 1872 the kitchen garden was converted into a freight yard , but the remaining pavilion served for decades during the high industrialization as weather protection for the workers on the area now known as the kitchen garden freight yard .

When the pavilion was finally demolished in 1911 , a lithograph appeared that same year from the “Kunstanstalt Ludwig Hemmer ” and the Lindener Verlag August Harre & Co. as collotype with the title “Lindener Berg mit Küchengarten-Pavillon” possible new location for the building over the cemetery wall on the mountain projected was. But it was not until 1913 that the pavilion was rebuilt, but then on the highest point of the Linden mountain cemetery.

After the First World War and during the Weimar Republic was set up on the upper floor of the pavilion, a memorial and for the distant to the war fronts fallen Linden, a facility that was maintained until the 1967th

In the meantime, at the time of National Socialism in 1937, the old entrance portal of the former kitchen garden was also moved to the Lindener Berg and has since formed the main entrance to the Lindener Bergfriedhof, from which an avenue leads directly to the pavilion.

To alleviate the housing shortage after the air raids on Hanover in World War II , the ground floor of the pavilion was used as an "emergency apartment" for a long time after 1945.

After the cemetery was closed in 1965, the memorial to the fallen was also closed in 1967. After the renovation of the pavilion in 1976, the pavilion served the sculptor Hans-Jürgen Zimmermann as an artist's studio from 1977 to 1998 .

The kitchen garden pavilion was restored in 2002 and has since been used by the Quartier eV association as a viewing room and event room, primarily for exhibitions on the history of Linden.

The former kitchen garden pavilion presents itself as a slim belvedere on a square floor plan with a basement and a high, domed upper floor, both held together by pilasters . Two low arbors adjoin the sides symmetrically . The plastered brick building is finely divided by sandstone and was presumably built in 1741 according to plans by Johann Paul Heumann on the occasion of the redesign of the electoral kitchen garden. The slate roof over coupling has been expanded, however, only the 1749th Despite the relocation to Lindener Berg, the building - with a few changes - has been preserved as one of Hanover's architectural treasures.
