Oberholz Botanical Garden
Perhaps you have already hiked through the "Oberholz" in Großpösna. But have you also visited the nearby Botanical Garden for Medicinal and Aromatic Plants?
Nature-loving people will not only learn interesting facts about medicinal plants of the past and present in this green oasis, created in 1936 as a druggist's educational garden, but will also be able to admire the diversity of the local flora and fauna. You can observe free-living birds and insects and discover bird, bat and insect boxes on old trees. Children will particularly enjoy the small animal zoo with dwarf rabbits and guinea pigs or the aviary with various parakeets. There are many ideas for your own garden, such as designing flower beds and ponds, creating a deadwood hedge and building willows. Seeds, fresh or dried herbs, perennials, young plants, potted flowers and bouquets are also available for purchase.
Guided tours on various topics are available to order in the garden.
