Situated on the banks of the River Spree and crowned by two of Berlin's most impressive buildings - the Altes Museum and Berliner Dom - the Lustgarten (pleasure garden) was created in 1573 as a garden for the Hohzollerern royal family (the former Royal Palace was situated close by). In the 18th century, Friedrich Wilhelm I turned it into a military parade ground and 60 years ago, what remained of the garden was uprooted to provide space for Nazi parades and rallies. The historic garden was relandscaped in 2000 according to original plans and is once again full of lawns, fountains and bushes.
