Places to see in ( Hannover - Germany ) Royal Gardens of Herrenhausen
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.

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.
Germany: Hanover - Niki de Saint Phalle's art in the Historic Grotto of the Herrenhausen Gardens
The Grotto, which dates from 1676, is situated in the northwest corner of the Grosser Garten. Originally its three rooms were ornamented with shells, crystals and minerals to create a place of enchantment and refuge from the heat of the day. In the 18th century these decorations were removed and for many years the building was used as a store.
In 2001 a structural restoration started by which the interior was ornamented to designs by the artist Niki de Saint Phalle (1930-2002), a French sculptor, painter and filmmaker.
In 1961, Niki de Saint Phalle became known around the world for her Shooting paintings. A shooting painting consisted of a wooden baseboard on which containers of paint were laid, and then covered with plaster. The painting was then raised and de Saint Phalle would shoot at it with a .22 calibre rifle. The bullets penetrated paint containers, which spilled their contents over the painting.
After the Shooting paintings came a period when she explored the various roles of women.
She began to use her artwork to consider archetypal female figures in relation to her thinking on the position of women in society. Her artistic expression of the proverbial every woman was named 'Nanas'.
The grotto has an octagonal central entrance hall and the two rooms leading from it are decorated with mosaics of coloured glass and mirrors, pebbles and many painted fibreglass figures on the theme of the life of man and woman.
The spiral arrangement of the ornaments around the pillars in the entrance room symbolises Spirituality. The Mirror Room with its theme of Day and Life is a gallery of over forty figures representing almost every creative period of the artist. The Blue Room is dedicated to the Night and the Cosmos; brightly coloured female figures dancing in the deep blue heavens, reaching for the stars. The windows and doors of the Grotto are ornamented with grills inset with glass and mirrors also designed by Niki de Saint Phalle
