A garden as a living cultural space
From its former role as a teaching and school garden, it has become a green oasis of around 10 hectares, where relaxation, botanical collection, and cultural mediation impressively connect. Over 3000 plant species, themed gardens, and the plant world under glass shape the artistic experience of this place, which has grown since 1936 at Siebentischpark.

Program with a sense of public and aesthetics
The anniversary festival relies on a diverse program for young and old: music and dance performances, garden consultations, guided tours, crafting and participation offers for children and families, literary walks, and exhibitions are among the announced components. Thus, the Botanical Garden becomes not only a destination but also a place of lived cultural education.
