Alter Botanischer Garten

A nice small park, well maintained with a nice fountain and beer garden. Ideal for relaxing away from the hustle and bustle of Munich city center.

The Alter Botanischer Garten, a serene oasis in the heart of the city, offers a delightful escape into nature. With its diverse collection of plants and tranquil atmosphere, it's a perfect spot for leisurely strolls and peaceful contemplation. A must-visit for nature lovers in any season.

Pretty nice place for a little walk and a snack. I noticed some people playing ( pétanque). Surprise since it's French I think :) Recommended

Beautiful garden, very nicely managed. A visit is very educational and relaxing. You can take a book with you or just take a seat at one of the benches around the park, sit down, relax and enjoy the beautiful nature. One of my favorite spots in Munich.

The Old Botanical Garden is today merely a nice city park and opportunity to get away from the busy city streets nearby. Built in the early 19th century, the grounds gave way to the new Botanical Garden out near Nymphenburg around 1914. Today you find tree lined footpaths, grassy area and some nice flowerbeds which were in full bloom during our June visit. This was quite nice to see. There is a famous Park Cafe and biergarten as well as a large Neptune fountain and pool that can be seen at the Old Botanical Garden. Overall, it is ok stop to make if you are staying in this area or plan to pass by here. However, I'm not sure I would target a visit here if your time in Munich is limited. Instead, I would prioritise the impressive English Gardens and the expansive Nymphenburg garden and park as well.
