Things to do in Royal Gardens of Herrenhausen
At the heart of Herrenhausen Palace, the Royal Gardens – aka Herrenhauser Garten – are some of Europe’s finest. Brought to life by Electress Sophia of Hanover, these gardens are a snapshot of her passion for the outdoors. In true Baroque style, there’s a definite nod to Versailles, with inspiration from King Louis XIV. Expect things like massive water fountains, maze-like pathways framed with flowerbeds, perfectly manicured hedges and even a grotto dating back to 1671. The magic doesn’t stop there, though. Look out for special events like the International Fireworks Competition or evening light shows both of which give the gardens an extra splash of colour.

Reviews Royal Gardens of Herrenhausen
“Hannover war uns nicht unbekannt, aber Dank der interessanten Fahrt mit dem Bus und dem wirklich guten Audio-Guide in verschiedensten Sprachen (es gab sogar keinen Kinderkanal und Platt) haben wir noch viel mehr über die Stadt erfahren und hatten viel Spaß. Danke!”
