Privy Councilor Leibniz Presents the Baroque Garden - Visit Hannover

scenic garden tour

Privy Councillor Leibniz presents the baroque garden

Join Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, portrayed by Rainer Künnecke, on a tour of the Baroque Garden in Herrenhausen.

Privy Councillor Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz

Privy Councillor Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz

The Privy Councillor welcomes you to the garden and guides you through the spectacular gardens from the Baroque period, which were primarily used for the representation and pleasure of the court.

He will explain the design principles of the garden and the deeper meaning of its design elements. It begins in the Garden of the Hesperides and ends in the Nouveau Jardin, which is designed according to the new French garden art. In between, the Privy Councillor will also introduce you to some basic steps of the Baroque dance.

You'll also gain insight into the mind of this polymath and his life at court, and he'll explain what bound him so closely to Electress Sophie of Hanover.

Look forward to a witty and entertaining tour through the impressive baroque gardens.
