Welcome

in the Garden Realm of Dessau-Wörlitz

Rich in art, rich in history, rich in beauty – that is the Garden Realm of Dessau-Wörlitz. Set against the picturesque natural backdrop of the Elbe and Mulde rivers, it was created in the 18th century as the ambitious project of a young prince. Since then, it has delighted countless visitors with its unique character as a symbol of the Enlightenment and its enchanting centerpiece – Park Wörlitz. Among them was none other than Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who described the park with delight as “infinitely beautiful”. Do as the great poet did and visit the Garden Realm!

Spring is in the starting blocks

Crocus barometer

It’s “curtain up” for the Wörlitz crocuses! They are bravely poking their heads out of the ground. And with the glorious sunshine, there are more and more every day! Gradually, the first purple carpets are even forming on the wide meadows of the landscape park. We’ll keep you up to date here so that you don’t miss the peak of the Wörlitz crocus blossom.
