Alter Botanischer Garten

4.2 ·

Step into the Alter Botanischer Garten, a leafy retreat just steps from Munich's main station. Stroll past the Fountain of Neptune, relax on the lawns, and finish with a beer in the garden.

📖

Full description

Alter Botanischer Garten sits in Maxvorstadt, a short walk from the main train station, and works as a green pocket within the city centre. Mature trees, open lawns and the Fountain of Neptune give it a calm, ornamental feel, while the beer garden and cafe make it an easy place to linger.

Seasonal plantings draw praise, particularly the dahlias in September, and a fenced children's playground makes it comfortable for families. Entry is free and the park never closes, so a half-hour stop slots easily into a city day.

Reviews

BEAUTIFUL park a stone's throw from the main train station. SAFE child playground which forbids adults entering unless accompanied by kids. WONDERFUL bierhof that services a good selection of beers and great value daily lunches.
