| <small>Ilm Park is a 48-hectare landscape park on the edge of Weimar's Old Town and a part of a kilometer-long green belt along the Ilm River. It was created between 1778 and 1828. Paths were subsequently laid, seating installed, monuments, bridges and other park architecture built and numerous trees and bushes were also planted.</small>
| |
|
| |
|
| <small>Over the following decades, the park was maintained but part of its direct connection with the surrounding landscape disappeared due to building work such as the street Am Horn.</small>
| |
|
| |
|
| <small>Moreover, insufficient care of the trees and shrubs puts its original appearance at risk. Extensive reconstruction, preservation and maintenance work was carried out on the trees, shrubs, paths and architecture only when the park was taken over by the National Research and Memorial Sites of Classical German Literature (NFG) in 1970.</small>

| | |
| <small>The park contains valuable trees, mostly local varieties, but also some foreign trees, especially from North America. In 1993, 770 maples, 455 ash trees, 381 linden, 291 chestnuts and 257 hornbeams were counted, with an average age of 80 to 150 years at the time.</small>
