Garden & Do It Yourself, Guided Tour

Public garden tour "Vegetable and flower splendor"

Schloss Kyburg, Kyburg

On the tour, we learn how the historic garden is used and designed today and hear exciting facts about ancient and surprisingly young vegetable varieties. Stroll through the lush greenery with us!

It invites you to linger and discover: The palace garden on the demolished rampart between the moats in front of the curtain wall. For centuries, it was the heart of Kyburg's self-sufficiency. With historian Ursina Largiadèr, we take a look back at the history of the (Kyburg) garden. Where was the kitchen garden of the medieval castle located? When was the manorial garden laid out in front of the castle wall? How did the private owners shape the surroundings of the museum castle in the 19th century? Castle gardener Christof Aeschlimann shows how the historic garden is used and designed today and has lots of exciting stories to tell about ancient and surprisingly young vegetable plants. As always, there will also be time for questions and discussions among gardening enthusiasts. Take a stroll through the lush late summer greenery!
