Private Project

Alman Bahçesi

With the establishment of the Republic of Turkey, Ankara becomes the capital of the new Turkish State on 13 October 1923. The European countries were unwilling to relocate their embassies from Istanbul to Ankara, considering that this adventure of the new government may be temporary and may fail. It is Germany, who relocates her embassy to Ankara first, among the Western European countries.

The 28 thousand sqm site Germany purchases in Ankara for their embassy is very much appreciated by the new Turkish Government, so that they have decided to donate the adjacent lands. The current German Embassy complex, with approximately 65 thousand sqm of area, is formed accordingly.

This is the largest of the embassy gardens in Ankara today, with a rich plantation of over 4500 trees, 180 plant and flower varieties. A secret paradise in the heart of the city, everyone wants to visit.
