D’après la source
Herrenhausen is a group of gardens in Hannover. The city traces the Great Garden to a seventeenth-century pleasure garden and describes its expansion under Martin Charbonnier by 1714. The aerial photograph shows the Great Garden, one part of the wider Herrenhausen ensemble.
Lecture éditoriale
Hannover identifies a central parterre, a historic garden theatre and smaller themed gardens within the Great Garden. Its history traces the first pleasure garden to the area of the present parterre. Use the long central line as a reference, then turn into the smaller compartments. The change from long sightline to contained planting makes the plan legible in a different way from the air.
Recommandation
Consult Hannover’s plan and visitor information before travelling. Decide which parts of Herrenhausen you want to see and check any separate admission or access arrangements, especially for buildings and events.
