Schlosspark Charlottenburg, designed together with the palace in 1697 and authentically reconstructed in the spring of 2001, was the first baroque garden in Germany using the French model. In the 19th century it was supplemented by an English garden designed first by J. A. Eyserbeck from Wörlitz, and from 1819 on by Peter Joseph Lenné.
Along the tour there are:
the Mausoleum of Queen Luise, where other members of the family were also buried. The marble sarcophagus of Queen Luise designed by C. D. Rauch is said to be one of the most beautiful German sculptures of the 19th century;
- the small rococo pavilion "Belvedere" or "Teehaus" by Langhans. At present, there is a porcelain exhibition presented here; and
- the Schinkel - Pavillon designed by Schinkel as a summer residence for Friedrich-Wilhelm III and modelled after an Italian villa.
Behind the baroque garden there are extensive lawns for play and sunbathing, ponds and small channels, a playground and a toboggan run. In the east, the park borders the River Spree.
The 3.9 km route through Schlosspark Charlottenburg can easily be varied and adapted to the individual needs. The paths are well maintained and without inclines.
The park is open to the public from 6 am to 8 pm and entrance is free of charge. The paths are not illuminated.
