On the northern slope of Ettersberg Hill is the Ettersburg Castle Garden. Two parterres and the six-hectare countryside park supplement the castle complex, which was used as a hunting lodge by the Weimar dukes from the 17th century. In the mid-19th century, Duke Carl Alexander had the outside areas redesigned and extended by the Weimar court gardener Eduard Petzold. One of the existing avenues of an historic hunting “étoile” leading directly to the castle was converted into a long forest meadow by Prince Hermann Pückler von Muskau together with Petzold, his student.
