Leibfried's Garden

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Leibfriedscher Garten south of the Leibfried Bastion

The Leibfriedsche Garten was opened in the course of the International Horticultural Exhibition 1993 (IGA '93) in Stuttgart and closed the previously existing gap in the Green U , six consecutive parks in the form of a "U".

description

The Villa Moser of the chocolate manufacturer Eduard Otto Moser , which was destroyed in the Second World War in 1944 , has stood on the grounds of the garden since 1875 . The architect Hans Dieter Schaal created the art station Villa Moser for the IGA '93 . It makes the remains of the Villa Moser and its overgrown park accessible through catwalks without the visitor coming into contact with the site. Due to the now partially poor structural condition, some of the catwalks (as of September 2013) are closed to the public.

The Leibfriedsche Garten is connected to the Wartberg and Rosensteinpark by bridges.

South of the Leibfriedschen Garten is the site of the IGA 1993 Housing Expo , a settlement with experimental housing.

Art stations

For the IGA '93, the landscape architect Hans Luz took up the station concept that he and his office had already tried out at the 1977 Federal Garden Show in Stuttgart and the 1981 State Garden Show in Baden-Baden:

“So we looked for places where destination and stopover points, stations could be created with designed condensation and invented names for the respective location: Bei der Buche, Grottenloch, Keuper, Donars Stich, Der Leibfried etc. We thought about it to connect these points with a course that reflects a curriculum vitae: love, birth, play, creation, dreams, politics, living, living and passing away. We wanted to include the word in this path and realize the whole thing together with artists and writers we know and trust. "

Of the art stations that were built for the IGA in the Höhenpark Killesberg , on the Wartberg and in the Leibfriedschen Garten, 11 are still preserved today, including the Killesberg Tower , which was planned for the IGA but was only built in 2001.
