The rose beds
More than four hundred varieties in formal beds — the garden's strength in summer.

Late May to July, the rose season. In early spring and autumn the garden stays tidy and pleasant but has almost no flowers, and in winter there is little to see. Make it a summer visit.
On foot along the Lichtentaler Allee from central Baden-Baden, about twenty minutes beside the river, and a lovely walk in itself. Or take a local bus if you would rather not walk.
Yes — free, quiet, safe and with places to sit. But it is a garden for strolling rather than playing, and there is no playground. Small children may get bored quickly.

The Gönneranlage is a rose garden on the bank of the river Oos, part of the long Lichtentaler Allee promenade. Laid out in the early twentieth century in Art Nouveau style, it holds more than four hundred varieties of rose in formal beds around fountains and stone steps. The best time is late May to July, when the roses are at their peak and their scent fills the place. It is free and always open, and quieter than the rest of the promenade because it lies a little away from the town centre.

A long promenade along the river under old trees, linking the garden to the town centre.
An early twentieth-century design of stone steps, fountains and pergolas covered in climbing roses.
