The design of the park was based on an imaginary "axis memorial", connecting the park along the water basin with the 1931 Schlageter memorial erected at the northern cemetery. Because of the area’s relative flatness, the park was designed as a large open space. It was built on mainly undeveloped land with only moderate soil quality. After the Second World War, the popular park was occupied by British forces. It was handed back to the city bit by bit between 1953 and 1985.Wide paths through the park were constructed in the large, tree-lined lawns separate the garden areas of each other.
