HANNOVER,
GERMANY, EARLY
1900s
"Hannover : The Eilenriede : Children's
Playground"
While this picture is titled "Children's
playground", there seems to be nothing familiar for children to play
on/in. Perhaps it was more of a sitting area for parents with small
children.
The building in the rear seems to be a rain
shelter, and perhaps some toilets.
The Eilenriede was and still is a
"forest-park" in the middle of Hannover, kind of akin to Central Park
in NY. The park was first donated to the people in 1371.
