Travel Germany - Visiting Herrenhausen Gardens in Hannover
Take a tour of Herrenhausen Gardens in Hannover, Germany -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
The four gardens which comprise the Herrenhausen Gardens are reputed to be the most exquisite gardens in Germany.
The gardens boast an assortment of styles including classic baroque and English.
The Great Garden is indeed immense, having once housed a castle which was destroyed by World War II, it now hosts festivals and firework competitions as well as classical music and theatre performances.
The Berggarten, originally a vegetable garden, became the site of experimental plant breeding, housed a conservatory, and is currently a botanical garden.
The Welfengarten is now occupied by the University of Hannover, which uses the castle on the grounds as its primary building.
These beloved gardens stand today as the centers of culture, music, education, and recreation for the citizens they have served for centuries.

The Herrenhausen Gardens of Herrenhausen Palace, located in Herrenhausen, an urban district of Lower Saxony's capital of Hanover are made up of the Great Garden, the Berggarten, the Georgengarten and the Welfengarten. The gardens are a heritage of the Kings of Hanover.
The Great Garden has always been one of the most distinguished baroque formal gardens of Europe while the Berggarten has been transformed over the years from a simple vegetable garden into a large botanical garden with its own attractions. Both the Georgengarten and the Welfengarten have been made in the style of English gardens, and both are considered popular recreation areas for the residents of Hanover. The history of the gardens spans several centuries, and they remain a popular attraction to this day.
The Great Garden owes much of its aesthetics to Sophia of Hanover, consort of the Elector of Hanover and herself heiress to the British throne, who in 1683 commissioned the French gardener Martin Charbonnier to enlarge an existing garden. It served as a summer retreat, located only a few kilometers outside the city, while the Leineschloss was the main residence in town. As its name implies, it indeed became a large garden, comprising 50 hectares of lawns, hedges, walkways, and statues arranged in strict geometrical patterns.
Every summer, the Great Garden plays host a large variety of festivals. The Festival of Small Arts (Kleinkunstfestival) takes place over several days and offers a wide range of artistic displays, and the Small Festival in the Great Garden (Kleines Fest im Großen Garten) has become firmly entrenched as a highlight of the Festival Week Herrenhausen (Festwochen Herrenhausen). Lastly, the garden is the site of an international fireworks competition which evolved from a local attraction.
The State Stage of Hanover (Landesbühne Hannover) uses the Garden Theatre of the Great Garden during the summer for both musicals and other theatrical performances. Similarly, the building that houses the garden's orangery is utilized for both art exhibits and performances of classical music; matinee performances are presented in the foyer. The focal point of the garden is the Great Fountain which can, with optimal weather conditions, reach a maximum height of 80 meters. The original fountain was based on ideas of Gottfried Leibniz and was inaugurated in 1719 during the visit of George I. In 1721, it reached a height of some 35 m which made it the highest fountain in European courts. The fountain and its pumping works were renewed in 1860.
The Great Garden is also the site of one of the last works of the artist Niki de Saint Phalle. She modified the three-roomed grotto in the northwestern section of the garden, which had served as a store room in the eighteenth century, by adding various items, including crystals, minerals, glass and seashells. Between 2001 and 2003, when the exhibit opened, de Saint Phalle and her coworkers covered the walls and interior with mosaics of molded glass and mirrors. Two rooms branch off from the octagon-shaped central room, and on the front wall of each of them is a statue set within a small recession in the wall. De Saint Phalle's intention for this exhibit was that the visitors could use the grotto as a cool retreat on hot summer days while at the same time being enchanted by the decorations.

Hanover is the capital city of the German state of Lower Saxony. It's known for trade fairs like the annual CeBIT tech expo. The red-brick Gothic Market Church and the Old Town Hall stand among half-timbered houses in the rebuilt old town. The ornate New Town Hall has views from its dome and 4 different scale models of the city through the ages. The 17th-century Herrenhäuser Gardens are just outside the city center.
Hannover on the River Leine, is the capital and largest city of the German state of Lower Saxony (Niedersachsen), and was once by personal union the family seat of the Hanoverian Kings of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, under their title as the dukes of Brunswick-Lüneburg (later described as the Elector of Hanover). At the end of the Napoleonic Wars, the Electorate was enlarged to become a Kingdom with Hanover as its capital. From 1868 to 1946 Hanover was the capital of the Prussian Province of Hanover and afterwards of the Hanover administrative region until that was abolished in 2005. It is now the capital of the Land of Lower Saxony. Since 2001 it has been part of the Hanover district (Region Hannover), which is a municipal body made up from the former district (Landkreis Hannover) and city of Hanover (note: although both Region and Landkreis are translated as district they are not the same).
Hanover also hosts annual commercial trade fairs such as the Hanover Fair and the CeBIT. Every year Hanover hosts the Schützenfest Hannover, the world's largest marksmen's festival, and the Oktoberfest Hannover, the second largest such festival in Germany. In 2000, Hanover hosted the world fair Expo 2000. The Hanover fairground, due to numerous extensions, especially for the Expo 2000, is the largest in the world. Hanover is of national importance because of its universities and medical school, its international airport and its large zoo. The city is also a major crossing point of railway lines and highways (Autobahnen), connecting European main lines in both the east-west (Berlin–Ruhr area) and north-south (Hamburg–Munich, etc.) directions.
The city's central station, Hannover Hauptbahnhof, is a hub of the German high-speed ICE network. It is the starting point of the Hanover-Würzburg high-speed rail line and also the central hub for the Hanover S-Bahn. Hanover and its area is served by Hanover/Langenhagen International Airport. Hanover is also an important hub of Germany's Autobahn network; the junction of two major autobahns, the A2 and A7 is at Kreuz Hannover-Ost, at the northeastern edge of the city.

Hannover, Sehenswürdigkeiten der Landeshauptstadt von Niedersachsen
Unseren Rundgang durch Hannover starten wir am Bahnhof. Wir besichtigen danach u.a. die Oper, flanieren über die Georgsstrasse, schauen uns die Aegidienkirche an und bestaunen das Neue Rathaus. Danach machen wir einen Abstecher zum Maschsee. Das Leineschloss und die Altstadt mit dem Alten Rathaus stehen danach auf unserem Programm.
Einzelheiten: siehe Untertitel
Hannover. Deutschland. Niedersachsen. Die Reise des Kettenkaters
Hannover. Die Hauptstadt Niedersachsens. Das Kloster „der richtigsten“ deutschen Sprache. Die Heimat eines der Königshäuser Großbritanniens, der Gruppe „Scorpions“ und natürlich des Baron Münchhausen. Na, wie geht es ohne ihn?
Hier schaffte Handel und wurde die berühmte Pferderasse gezüchtet.
Und noch Leibniz! Natürlich wurde er nicht hier sondern in Leipzig geboren. Hannover wurde aber zu einer guten Grundlage für viele Großtaten dieses würdigen Mannes.
Erstmals wurde Hannover 1150 erwähnt. Die Stadt liegt am Fluß Leine.
Am ehesten leitet sich der Name von der Wortverbindung „hoenovere“, die aus dem Altdeutschen als das hohe Ufer“ übersetzt wird.
Ich weiß, was Ihnen gleich eingefallen ist. Na ja, kein Rhein.
Trotzdem wurde Hannover einmal zu einer soliden Festung, die zudem mit einer Wasserabsperrung umgeben war.
Die Stadt entwickelte sich ruhig ohne große Bestürzungen. Bis zum 20. Jahrhundert. Es war damit verbunden, dass kleine Halunken den Hannovern kaum Harm bereiten konnten. Einem starken Feind zogen die weisen Einwohner vor, die Hände zu versilbern und er verlor damit das Interesse an ihnen.

Descrizione:
Hannover è la capitale della Bassa Sassonia (Niedersachsen), una città molto popolosa e nota soprattutto per le fiere che vi svolgono. Hannover è, però, anche una città piena di natura, con tantissimo verde, una foresta urbana e un sistema di trasporti a impatto ambientale ridotto. Sede di una Università importante intitolata a Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz, Hannover è un importante polo scientifico e culturale. In questo video, andremo alla scoperta di alcuni degli aspetti della città che la rendono interessante agli occhi di un naturalista, dalla splendida foresta di Eilenriede fino al bellissimo Orto Botanico nel quartiere di Herrenhausen.
P.S. si chiede scusa per la cattiva pronuncia di alcune parole tedesche. In particolar modo, la foresta Eilenriede è pronunciata male!

Places to see in ( Berlin - Germany ) Charlottenburg Palace
Places to see in ( Berlin - Germany ) Charlottenburg Palace
Sophie Charlotte, the first Queen consort in Prussia, was not only an accomplished musician, playing the harpsichord and singing Italian opera, but also strolled through the grounds here with her friend, the renowned scholar and philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. When Sophie Charlotte died, just 36 years old, the palace and the area around was named Charlottenburg after her. Today, this is the largest and most magnificent palace in Berlin – a highlight for any Berlin visitor.
Sophie Charlotte of Hanover was the younger sister of George Louis of Hanover, who succeeded to the British throne as George I. In 1684, she married Friedrich III, the Elector of Brandenburg and the then Duke of Prussia. Friedrich gave Sophie Charlotte a large estate and the village of Lietze/Lützow, at that time still outside Berlin, and this was the site of her summer palace. Completed in 1699, it was initially known as Lietzenburg Palace. Sophie Charlotte, a great lover of the arts, invited poets, philosophers, musicians and artists to join her at her “court of the muses”. Even her husband King Friedrich I could only visit if she personally invited him. After her death, Friedrich named the palace and the surrounding area Charlottenburg in her honour.
Sophie Charlotte was not the only Prussian queen to leave her mark on Charlottenburg – so did Queen Louise, who was much revered by the general populace. She died in 1810, and is buried in the mausoleum with her husband, Friedrich Wilhelm III, and her son. In the course of the nineteenth century, Charlottenburg Palace was gradually forgotten by the royal rulers. From 1880, it was no longer classified as a royal residence, and the grounds were opened to the public. In the Second World War, the palace was badly damaged, though it was later rebuilt.
In the Neuer Flügel (New Wing), you can view the staterooms and the rococo ballroom known as the Goldene Galerie (Golden Gallery). The Silver Vault includes quite stunning tableware of gold, silver, glass and porcelain displayed on laid tables. Around 100 table services have survived intact, a vivid reminder of the magnificence of dining at court. The impressive display of the remaining pieces of the Prussian crown jewels, complete with the imperial insignias, as well as personal treasures, such as the elaborated designed, exquisite snuffboxes collected by Friedrich the Great, are also well worth seeing. The Porcelain Cabinet in the Old Palace - re-opened on 1st October, 2017 - offers a breathtaking collection of the finest blue-and-white porcelain decorating the entire room.
Once Sophie Charlotte strolled through the park, celebrated lavish festivities here and enjoyed these magnificent baroque gardens. The park and grounds were designed by French landscape architect Siméon Godeau, a pupil of André le Nôtre, principal gardener of Louis XIV of France at Versailles – the model emulated by all court gardens across Europe in the baroque era. But the fashions in landscaping changed down the years, and Sophie Charlotte’s successors re-designed the grounds in the fashion of their day – as an English-style landscaped park. The highlights in the park are the mausoleum, the Belvedere tea house and the Neuer Pavillon, a small neo-classical house modelled on a Neapolitan villa.
