Lake Constance Gardens – A journey through time

Überlingen

For centuries, hard-working gardeners have been sowing, planting and weeding at Lake Constance. From the castle grounds to the cottage garden, today there is row upon row of charming green oases spread across the Lake Constance.

Gardens such as the islands Mainau and Reichenau, park and medieval gardens of Arenenberg Castle, school and experimental gardens at Arenenberg, Salem Monastery and Palace, Meersburg New Palace, Bible gallery Meersburg, Ittingen Charterhouse, Überlingen Garden Culture Path, Park hotel St. Leonhard, villas and parks on the Bavarian Riviera Lindau, landscape park and kitchen garden of Wartegg Castle, World of Natural Remedies by A.Vogel in Roggwil, Frauenfeld archaeobotanical garden, REGENA Medicinal Herb Garden Tägerwilen, VitaPlant AG Uttwil, Stiegeler Park Konstanz, KWA Parkstift Rosenau Konstanz, Castle Garden Messkirch, Bregenz port gardens, Seeburg park Kreuzlingen, City garden Singen and the ‘Unlimited Garden Rendezvous’ at western Lake Constance are all united in a network:

1 | D-Mainau Island

The ‘Island of Flowers’ is a treat for garden-lovers: Alongside an unbelievable abundance of flowers, which thrives throughout the seasons (hundreds of thousands of tulips and daffodils, the Italian rose garden, 12,000 dahlias in more than 250 varieties), there is also a butterfly house, a palm-tree greenhouse and one of Europe's most important orchid exhibitions (March-May) which will enchant you. Many of the exotic trees were planted 150 years ago.

G

Almost 1,200 years ago, a monk from Reichenau, Walahfrid Strabo, wrote the first garden guide in Europe under the pseudonym of ‘Hortulus’. In it he describes 24 medicinal plants and explains how they can be used. Today it is primarily tomatoes, cucumbers etc. that grow on the ‘Vegetable Island’, but in the former cloister garden an old-fashioned herb garden shows plants from Hortulus's guide.
