The western terrace of the Heidelberg Castle is referred to as the piece garden. The name is derived from the cannons that were set up there in the early modern period and which were also referred to as "pieces". Initially used for defense purposes, the conversion to a garden took place in the early 17th century. Access is marked by the Elisabethentor, which was created around 1615 as a gift for Elisabeth Stuart. During the usage period of the castle, there was also a bird house in the piece garden, which was later converted into an orangery, of which only foundations are visible today. Today the piece garden serves primarily as a viewpoint for the castle visitors, from which a view of the Palatinate Forest beyond the Rhine plain is possible from a clear view. The piece garden connects the castle atrium in the south with the "thick tower" in the north. To the east is a deep cut in the castle mountain of the "Hirschgraben", to the west the piece garden protrudes on steep support walls above the Heidelberg old town.
