Wolfskehl'scher Park

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Wolfskehl'sche Park is a small park in Darmstadt , located on the gallows in the district Bessungen .

The architect Gustav Jacobi built a Wilhelminian style villa for the Wolfskehl family in 1895/96 , after which today's park is named. The villa was destroyed in World War II. Only the Biedermeier style tea house on the north side of the property survived the war. The park between the city center and the outskirts is a terrace-like facility with old trees, benches, paths, a copy of the Darmstadtia sculpture , a playground and a Waldorf kindergarten . There is a small toboggan run on the western slope of the park . The park came into municipal ownership in the 1950s.

There was also a plan to build an open-air theater in the form of an amphitheater . A retirement home and a small vivarium were also planned. These plans did not materialize.
