The Gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle in South Tyrol

The whole world in one garden

INTERnationally renowned BOTANICAL GARDENS


Recognised by many as among the most beautiful gardens in the world, the Gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle extend all the way to Merano/Meran’s easternmost outskirts. In 2013, the pride of Merano was awarded the coveted International Garden of the Year Prize at the Toronto (Canada) Garden Tourism Conference.



Shaped like a amphitheatre centred around a large lily pond, the centrepiece of the Gardens is its 80 garden landscapes with plants from all over the world. Numerous ‘experience stations’, as well as ten art pavilions and a spectacular lookout platform are open to members of the public. These, a ‘Forbidden Garden’ and Botanical Underworld all combine to make the Gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle an exciting visitor experience for everyone in the family!
