The Herrenhausen Gardens – right on our doorstep
Hotel in Herrenhausen is just a few minutes’ walk from the Herrenhausen Gardens, one of the best-known historic garden ensembles in Europe. A stroll through the Great Garden before breakfast, a walk back to the hotel after a festival or fireworks evening – you can hardly stay any closer.
The gardens at a glance
- Great Garden (Großer Garten): the magnificent baroque garden with hedges, fountains and the Great Fountain, plus the colourful grotto by Niki de Saint Phalle and the rebuilt Herrenhausen Palace with its museum.
- Berggarten: the botanical garden with plants from all over the world.
- Georgengarten: an English landscape garden, free to enter, home to the Wilhelm Busch – German Museum of Caricature and Drawing.
