Englischer Garten
The Englischer Garten, German for" English Garden" , is a large public park in the centre of Munich, Bavaria, Germany stretching from the city centre to the northeastern city limits. It was created in 1789 by Sir Benjamin Thompson (1753-1814), later Count Rumford (Reichsgraf von Rumford), for Prince Charles Theodore, Elector of Bavaria. Thompsons' successors, Reinhard von Werneck (1757-1842) and Friedrich Ludwig von Sckell (1750-1823), advisers on the project from its beginning, both extended and improved the park.
