Graasten Palace Garden
Winding Paths, vast lawns, woods, lakes and flower beds blending uniquely with the South Jutland landscape - that is Graasten Palace Gardens in a nutshell.
The profusion of flowers is also magnificent. Queen Ingrid loved flowers and left a profound mark in the gardens, making them a vivid example of contemporary Royal landscape gardening.
Queen Margrethe II carried on her parents longstanding tradition of using Graasten Palace as a summer residence. Today the queen has her say in the Gardens colour scheme and selection of plants.
Graasten Palace Garden is open to the public all year round, so you can also enjoy the garden in its autumn colors, in winter and in early spring - however, the rules listed below must be observed.
Guided tours for groups through the history of the garden and the church can be booked at Sønderborg Tourist Office.
When the royal family is in residence at Graasten Palace, the Palace Garden is closed to the public, thus the Royal Kitchen Garden will still be open.
