Between exhibition, library, and green spaces
The Museum of Garden Culture combines exhibition, library, garden grounds, and educational offerings in one place. Visitors here experience historical gardening tools, plant knowledge, and the idea of a garden as a reflection of society, family, nutrition, and change. The site in Jungviehweide is regarded as an expansive area between meadows and fields and is entirely focused on vibrant garden culture.

History to touch and a future in sight
The exhibition "Desire Garden" shows how closely private gardens are related to European garden history, garden fashions, and future questions. Since mid-2025, the museum has been focusing on a long-term concept that makes the history and future of garden culture equally tangible. This is exactly what makes this tour appealing: it leads not only through spaces but also through ways of thinking.
