Rosengarten
Rosengarten (DONAU 3 FM) is a rose garden on the Danube waterfront in Ulm, Germany. A colour concept guides the planting throughout the garden. Roses, lavender, perennial plants, bright blooms, and shaded places shape its garden landscape. Earlier, the site carried the darker name “Garden of Misery” because a prison and ship landing stood nearby. The name belongs to the garden’s earlier history in Ulm. City care and Ulm’s rose friends maintain the plants and the wider grounds. Changing flowering periods give the garden a different appearance. Visitors find a place for a quiet pause beside the river. The riverbank setting places the garden within Ulm’s urban landscape. The layout turns rose planting into a planned display of colour. Rosengarten records a transformation from a sombre riverside setting into a cultivated garden. Its Danube setting places the rose beds beside a historic part of Ulm. Which detail catches your eye first, the lavender, the roses, or the river?
