Spe­cial Gui­ded Tour: Archi­tec­tu­re Meets Sus­taina­bi­li­ty – The Abbey Gar­den, its Histo­ry and Bio­di­ver­si­ty Today

In the new­ly rede­si­gned abbey gar­den, the struc­tures of the Baro­que gar­den are still reco­gnizable and pal­pa­ble. The strict­ly sym­me­tri­cal path sys­tem has been res­to­red, a foun­tain once again rises from the cen­tral Baro­que well, and the Nymphae­um loca­ted on the east wall is acces­si­ble again, bea­ring wit­ness to the for­mer Baro­que sple­ndor of the­se grounds. The tour through this gar­den traces the varied fate of the site—from Baro­que pre­sen­ta­ti­on and its func­tion as a “kit­chen gar­den” to unu­sed was­te­land and the new­ly crea­ted eco­lo­gi­cal­ly valuable mea­dows with their blos­soms and buz­zing.

With Eli­sa­beth Bren­ner, Edel­traud Taxa­cher and Chris­ti­ne Pod­lip­nig.
