German garden

With staffages and embellishments (e.g. a grotto) and weeping trees, a sense of emotional aesthetics should be developed.

Typical of this kind of park design is clear structure and domestic animals, a necessary component of the garden, as seen in former times in the Luisium Palace near Dessau in Germany or still existing the historistic park of Villa Haas (Hesse) from 1892.

The park area therefore had to be redesigned to protect the plants (walls, hedges, watercourses, fences).

The term "Ornamental Farm", which is still used today in manors with small park areas, forms a flowing border to this.

Therefore, in addition to the usual references to ancient mythology, the German style is limited to the decoration of statues, memorial stones, etc.
