Corveyer Gartenfest 2025

We like to enjoy the flair of other countries on vacation. All the better if you don't have to travel far to do so. For example, day trippers will find a wonderful summer idyll at the Corvey Garden Festival at the UNESCO World Heritage Corvey Castle in Höxter. From August 1 to 3, 2025, Dutch garden professionals, French gourmets, English antique dealers and Scandinavian garden furniture designers will transform the former Benedictine abbey into a garden paradise with international charm.

His Serene Highness Victor V, Duke of Ratibor and Prince of Corvey opens his private garden especially for this event. Here, all kinds of perennials and herbs, palm trees, Tuscan fruit trees and citrus plants spread a cheerful vacation mood. Amateur gardeners who want to spruce up their home garden will find boxwood, pruning shears, hedge trimmers and other gardening tools. Stalls with cashmere fashion from Nepal and stylish home accessories from England are lined up next to those with lovingly crafted flower wreaths from the region. Visitors can talk shop with barbecue experts, try out new garden furniture, listen to the gentle sound of rippling water features or enjoy a fruity cocktail in a shady spot.

The numerous delicacies also come from all over the world: spicy, fragrant tarte flambée from Alsace, hearty sausage and savory bacon from Austria, olive oil from Greece, wine from France and almond cookies from Tuscany. It's no wonder that one or two visitors want to come back the very next day.
