Roseburg bei Ballenstedt am Harz, known as Parkanlage Roseburg, is a fairy-tale-like park in Ballenstedt, Germany, blending architecture and garden design in a whimsical style.

Built starting in 1907 by architect Bernhard Sehring as a medieval-style castle residence, its expansive grounds were largely completed by 1925, drawing inspiration from Italian Renaissance, Baroque, and English landscape gardens.

Visitors wander past a striking 100-meter terraced water axis, an observation tower mausoleum offering Harz views, ornate bridges, staircases, balustrades, sculptures, mosaics, grottos, and rare trees, all evoking centuries of garden ideals in a serene, meticulously detailed setting. The well-maintained park avoids mass tourism, inviting peaceful exploration and occasional events.
