What Our Guests Say

Susanne de Ridder
It was more beautiful than ever... we were really thrilled
Christel Kossack-Raether
Just as magical as every year. The Family Day with Santa was great, too. We'd love to come back in 2025.
Thekla Bielig
Definitely worth seeing
Moni Usedom
You're literally immersed in a beautiful world of lights—it's really well done.
TheAbsintha
It’s just wonderful to immerse yourself in this world. Beautiful light installations, a stunning water show set to music. Not even Las Vegas has a water show this amazing. I think the admission price is reasonable. It’s great how everything works together so seamlessly with the music and lights. We were definitely thrilled. The mulled wine and Vienna sausages were okay. The mulled wine was a little too tart for my taste. But to each their own. It was a lot of fun, and the highlight is singing into the amplifier—it makes your voice sound heavenly, and you can adjust the volume to send a colorful laser beam across the meadow and up into a tree. I don’t want to give away any more than that. I thought it was absolutely wonderful and I’ll be back next year.
Simone

Great animations and images. The water fountain is awesome.
Ilona Riebe
The Christmas Garden was simply enchanting this year and full of special experiences. Luckily for us, it snowed just when we were there, which made the fairy-tale atmosphere even more magical. The soft music complemented the atmosphere perfectly and was always tasteful and understated. Thank you for those magical hours!
B. K.
Absolutely beautiful—if you're not in the Christmas spirit yet, you should definitely visit this garden. For me, it's a thousand times nicer than the crowds at Christmas markets.
Susi Raab
Absolutely beautiful. Vibrant colors in all their glory. The family ticket was really helpful this time. Hopefully it stays that way.
