UNESCO World Heritage Muskau Park

Muskau Park has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2004, and this is largely thanks to Hermann Fürst von Pückler (1785-1871). He created this masterpiece along the Neisse, which is now considered a classic landscape garden. As the founder of modern landscape design, he shaped not only Europe but also America. His principles are still relevant today, as his well-known textbook "Annotations on Landscape Gardening" from 1834 shows. This recognition of cross-border management honors the care of Pückler's cultural heritage.
