The Königsallee in Ludwigsburg is a historic boulevard that, as the main Baroque axis, connects the Residential Palace with the Salonwald forest. Originally laid out as the "Dicke Allee" (Thick Avenue), it served for princely representation and is part of the urban development from the 18th century. Today, it combines history with modern use.

The gardens surrounding the residential palace in Ludwigsburg, Baden-Württemberg, are known as "Blooming Baroque." Since 1959, the East Garden has also housed the Fairy Tale Garden, depicting over 40 fairy tale scenes. The Fairy Tale Garden was founded in 1959 on the initiative of Albert Schöchle, who, while shopping for animals in 1957, happened upon the Dutch Fairy Tale Forest in what is now the Efteling theme park in Kaatsheuvel, near Tilburg. Since Schöchle was looking for a new attraction for the park, he enthusiastically embraced the idea, but he didn't anticipate how difficult it would be to convince the supervisory board members in Ludwigsburg of the project's merits. He finally succeeded through a joint visit to the Dutch Fairy Tale Garden, which he deliberately scheduled for a Sunday; the large crowds of visitors there on that day convinced him.
