History
After the destruction of Hamburg's old city fortifications in the early 1800s, a green belt was established in their place; part of this makes up the modern Planten un Blomen. The first plant was a Platanus, planted by Johann Georg Christian Lehmann in November 1821. It can be seen next to the Hamburg Dammtor station entrance of the park.[2][3][4]
The area was previously home to a zoo and a cemetery, the latter of which had to be dismantled for its construction.[5] The modern park was established in 1933; in accordance with Nazi ideology, only German plants were included at the time.[6] In 1953 and 1973 the Internationale Gartenbauausstellung (International Horticulture Show, IGA) were held at the park.[5]
