The Gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle: An Excursion to Merano

Ein Tag zwischen Pflanzen, Kunst und neuen Perspektiven: Die Gärten von Schloss Trauttmansdorff bei Meran sind ein Ausflugsziel für alle, die Landschaft bewusst genießen möchten. Statt eines festen Besichtigungsprogramms können Sie hier Ihre eigene Runde durch die Gartenanlage wählen.

Während Ihres Urlaubs im Ansitz Montani in Eppan ist der Gartenbesuch eine abwechslungsreiche Ergänzung zu Wanderungen und Stadtspaziergängen.

Four Garden Worlds Across Twelve Hectares

The grounds extend over twelve hectares and comprise more than 80 garden landscapes. Four garden worlds showcase plants from different regions of the world. Circular and panoramic paths provide access to the site and offer views of Merano and the surrounding mountains.

The gardens cover an elevation gain of around 100 metres. You should therefore allow enough time for the various levels and choose paths that suit your fitness level. It is precisely these changing perspectives that make the tour so exciting.

Experience Stations, Art, and the Touriseum

In addition to the plantings, the garden grounds include experience stations and artist pavilions. Attentive visitors will constantly discover new inspiration for seeing and observing.

The castle houses the Touriseum, the South Tyrol State Museum of Tourism. It tells the story of the history of tourism in Tyrol and Merano, allowing you to complement your garden visit with a cultural-historical element. For a break, the Schlossgarten restaurant and the Palm Café by the water lily pond are part of the complex.

Planning a Relaxed Garden Visit

Comfortable shoes and sufficient time will help you to enjoy your tour without haste. Please check the seasonal opening times, tickets, and the accessibility of your desired paths in advance.

Details about the grounds can be found on the official website of the gardens. Make use of the current visitor information to plan your day according to the season.
