The Park of Muskau
Muskau Park
The Neiße River runs through one of Europe’s most beautiful landscape parks in Bad Muskau. Its creator and eponym, Count von Pückler-Muskau, created a landscaped architectural masterpiece in 1815. Approx. 830 hectares of the most beautiful garden art surround Bad Muskau. This garden is unique as it is separated into the German and Polish side.
Particularly impressive are the visual axes that Count Pückler ingeniously created through the artistic planting and placing of shrubs, carefully placed structures and by incorporating the slopes of the Neiße Valley.
