Preamble

The English Garden, together with the Hofgarten and the Finanzgarten, is a garden monument of world rank and is under the protection of the Monument Protection Act. The areas, which are also designated as a landscape protection area, serve for quiet recreation for individuals. The facility must therefore be protected and any disturbance of peace avoided; this is the basis for any use. Social and societal encounters are primarily served by the established gastronomies and kiosks.
