Sparkassenpark St. Pölten

The Sparkassenpark in St. Pölten was planned by the well-known Viennese garden architect Lothar Abel in the style of English landscape gardens. The basic structure has been preserved to this day. The more than 19,000 m² park serves as a nature, information and recreation space as well as a valuable eco-island in the inner city area. Characteristic is the networking of natural and horticulturally close to nature maintained areas. Visitors can relax here or learn about plants and plant combinations. Very special are the Apothecary Garden with proven Austrian medicinal plants and culinary herbs as well as a show garden for plants of Traditional Chinese Medicine. These include, for example, the goji berry, the Chinese date or the mulberry. The plants are grouped according to their therapeutic properties in TCM. All plants are labeled. Guided tours through the park are offered by the city of St. Pölten again and again.
