 | |  |  | Public Art: Invalidenpark | Tip Rating:    |  |  | |  |
This is probably quite attractive in the summertime, when the grass is green, the sky is blue, and the basin is full of water, which is how it was originally designed to be. Or maybe not. Certainly in wintertime, Invalidenpark is quite bleak. Somewhat interesting, though, because it was designed by a prominent contemporary landscape designer, Christophe Girot. This is the site of an 18th century "hospital" for wounded veterans, the "Invalidenhaus." It was this house which gave its name to "Invalidenstrasse," one of modern Berlin's major thoroughfares.
