This year, about 200.000 Lent lilys were planted in the Friedrichsau to celebrate the 200th anniversary of this recreational area of Ulm. The park, located in the east of the city, near the Danube river, includes lots of playgrounds, several lakes, a couple of beer garden, some very old trees, a rare family of beavers, artworks, a small zoo and parts of the old bastion, which was supposed to defend Ulm against all enemies that might could have followed after Napoleon Bonaparte (what never happened, actually) - April 16th, 2011.
