Tip: The Anger gardens in Unterretzbach
The green, fertile village center in Unterretzbach - once common pastureland, today the setting for one of Austria's most beautiful Anger gardens, which can be experienced along a show garden trail. Visitors set off from the garden pavilion into the countryside. Display boards along the gardens provide details about the gardens, their owners and their history. Small "natural pharmacies" provide unexpected insights into naturopathy and six adventure stations invite visitors to explore botany and climate in an entertaining way: how do plants communicate with the soil? What can the tamarisk do?
