In Gesundbrunnen, one of Berlin's most historically rich parks stretches across 29 hectares. Gustav Meyer started designing Volkspark Humboldthain in 1869. Today, it includes a rose garden with 15,000 roses of 70 varieties and the ruins of a flak tower, above which rises the 85-meter-high Humboldthöhe. This scope is quite unique for parks in Berlin.
