Here you can still clearly recognize the visual axes of the landscape park and have a great view of the old trees.

First mentioned in the 13th century, Count Finck von Finckenstein acquired the Alt-Madlitz castle estate in 1751. However, the educator of the Prussian kings Friedrich Wilhelm II and Frederick II did not stay there often. It was his son Friedrich Ludwig Karl who first developed the estate into a true court of the muses. Celebrities such as Ludwig Tieck, Achim von Arnim, Wilhelm von Humboldt and Clemens Brentano regularly visited there. Friedrich Ludwig Karl himself developed the plans for the extensive park that extends directly behind the manor house. Cleverly designed visual axes lined with large oak and chestnut trees characterize the oldest English landscape garden in Brandenburg. Finckenstein loved his park so much that he buried his heart there, surrounded by thirteen field stones symbolizing the number of his children. Unfortunately, when we visited in March 2024, all the ponds and even the large lake were almost completely silted up, but it is still worth a walk.

Rosengarten offers hikers and nature lovers numerous excursion options, for example you can visit the erratic stones in the Frankfurt city forest, which are protected as nature reserves. Near the Eduardspring forester's house there are granite blocks known as mushroom stones and caps because of their shapes. Other stones are the Rosengarten twin stone weighing 70 tons, the Kanzelstein weighing 150 tons, the Näpfchenstein, the Große Stein, the große and kleine Försterstein, the Erratic at the Stern and the Trassenstein. These stones weigh between 5 and 28 tons. In the city forest you can discover the wildlife park, which was created on a former shooting range. Hikers on the hiking trails in the city forest can visit old pedunculate oaks, and bathers can use the surrounding lakes. (Source: Wikipedia)
