It was created on the occasion of the Bundesgartenschau 1999 in Magdeburg on the Cracauer Anger. In the north-eastern part of Magdeburg there used to be Wehrmachtbarracks and shootingramparts built in the 1930s. After the Second World War, the barracks were used by the western Group of Soviet Forces in Germany. A huge rubbish dump was created from the ruins of the war's destruction. Before the construction of the park all explosive ordnance, projectiles and countless rubble from the war had to be removed in order to realize this project. In just a few years, a park was created on this former field of war debris, attracting numerous visitors. From 1999 to the 2014 season, the Panoramabahn, an elevated monorail, ran 3 km through the park. It was dismantled at the beginning of 2015.
