The Royal Gardens of Herrenhausen are a significant historical feature of Hanover, Germany. While the gardens themselves are not known for a distinct food history, they reflect the Baroque period's influence in Europe. The Herrenhausen Gardens were designed in the 17th century during the reign of the House of Hanover. Extravagant feasts and garden parties were common among the royalty and nobility of the period, featuring both German and European cuisines.
Throughout history, the gardens would have witnessed the evolution of German gastronomy, from hearty peasant food to the fine, sophisticated dishes served to royalty and their guests. Traditional ingredients like potatoes, cabbage, bread, and freshwater fish were common, along with game and poultry—as beef-related dishes are to be excluded from our context.
