Magdeburg (dpa / sa) - Historic parks along the “Gartenträume” route are essentially open in Saxony-Anhalt at Easter.

Because of the corona pandemic, the distance and hygiene rules must be strictly adhered to outdoors, said a spokeswoman for the garden dream association.

In view of the weather, however, some systems have not yet awakened from hibernation.

In addition, she referred to the current containment regulations in the respective districts and cities with a view to visiting and contact restrictions.

The 50 or so historic gardens and parks along the “Garden Dreams” route are among the country's flagships.

The aim is to impart knowledge in harmony with nature and monument protection and pass it on to the next generations.

This has been a particular concern of the Dessau-Wörlitz Garden Realm, which is now on the Unesco World Heritage list, since it was founded.

In the summer, the garden dream association hopes to be able to offer outdoor events again, for example a picnic day in July.

Before 1990, some of the country's historic “garden dreams” had been forgotten.

In total, they represent around 400 years of horticultural history - from the baroque garden to English gardens to the botanical garden.

According to the information, there are around 1000 garden monuments in Saxony-Anhalt.
