Even though the Feldberg lake district is one of the most beautiful natural areas in Germany, gardens or parks can also be found here. The Lennépark - as the name already reveals - was created by the famous Prussian landscape gardener Lenné, who set accents with his English gardens all over the country.
In 1832, the then landowner Otto von Dewitz wanted a landscape garden based on the English model. For this project, he was able to win the most important landscape architect of the time - Peter Joseph Lenné. The park within the then estate and today's village of Krumbeck was rampant for forty years during the GDR era until it was comprehensively restored by dedicated residents and landscape architect Stephan Pulkenat in 1990. Since then, the park presents itself with originally intended planting, bridges over the streams and picturesque ponds. Restoring the original appearance was no easy task: excavations were necessary to reconstruct the old path network, the wooden bridges had to be rebuilt, and the family burial place of the von Dewitz family was also restored. In addition to the park, the ensemble of buildings consisting of the church, manor house, farm buildings, blacksmith's shop and gamekeeper's estate was also extensively restored. The picturesque park, which is privately owned, is now once again a gem waiting to be discovered.
