Many of the sights in Darmstadt date back to the times when the city was still an administrative seat of the Upper County of Katzenelnbogen, or from 1568 to 1806 as the residence of the Landgraves of Hesse-Darmstadt and then until 1919 as the capital of the Grand Duchy of Hesse and from 1919 to 1945 of the People's State of Hesse. In particular, the years under Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig, who founded the Darmstadt artists' colony in 1899 and thus shaped Darmstadt into a centre of Art Nouveau. Before that, Georg Möller, from 1810 the chief building officer and court building director of the Grand Duchy, had already decisively shaped the face of the city and this district.

The Orangerie in Darmstadt, Germany, built around 1720, is a baroque palace building designed by the architect Louis Remy de la Fosse. Originally, it served as a winter shelter for citrus plants sensitive to the cold, which adorned the surrounding parkland in the summer months. The building was constructed with a one-storey hall open to the south, surrounded by single-storey rooms. The adjoining orangery park was designed under Ernest Louis, Landgrave of Hesse-Darmstadt by the Electoral Palatine court gardener Johann Kaspar Ehret from Heidelberg. The symmetrical Baroque grounds consist of three tiered garden parterres, wide axes with fountains and surrounding avenues. The sandstone gate of the former market palace forms the northern end.
