Sauer's Gardens is a neighborhood in the West End of Richmond, Virginia. The neighborhood began development in the 1920s, and now contains about 300 homes.
The neighborhood was developed and named for Conrad Frederick Sauer, founder of the nearby C. F. Sauer Company, whose headquarters is located down the street. Originally workers who worked at Sauer lived in the company neighborhood.
