  • Would definitely recommend when in Hannover, it’s big and has a lot to see. Fair price for it as well, the only thing that was sad was that the gallery is only open on Sunday. During the summer...

  • Loved it, the Garden was really nice. The only thing I think that they can improve on is the fact that most items in the museum are in German. Here's the catch, not everyone speaks German. So if the have the souvenirs that read in English or the books about botanical garden translated in English for those who can't read nor speak the language that would be awesome. Overall a really nice place to visit with kids, could be use for educational purposes. Well maintained.
  • It is a great museum out under the sky. The visitors can see a well planned large park with a system of fountains. They are 10 - 12 huge fountains and ten smaller ones. Around 32 statues from Greek mithology decorate the main garden. Fantastic! Beautiful ! Stunning place !
  • There is always a reason to keep coming back here, the gardens are just so beautifully designed and well maintained. Keep your eye out for events over the festival period, makes a great location to take in some culture. Really to get money's worth from admission price, pack a picnic basket and spend an afternoon inside.
  • The gardens are very beautiful! There are statues, pretty trees, fountains, hedges, some fruit areas, and I even saw some animals and insects (birds, butterflies, bees, squirrels, and I even heard an owl). Really beautiful overall!
  • Easily accessible by train, cycling and by foot from the city centre. It's a traditional and very well kept building situated in splashy, expansive and well-maintained gardens. It's the go-to place for events or even for relaxation.
