Palmengarten Frankfurt

Vast, almost otherworldly botanic gardens. Fascinating any time of the year if you have any interests in plants and botany. I went in autumn and the park was radiant with autumn colour. I went round clockwise from the Palmentgartenstrasse side and the think this was best. Started with nice lake views then onto the butterfly house and then the mind boggling greenhouses with various climate controlled zones.

Took my girlfriend on a date here and would happily return for more (both to the girl and the garden). The ticket price is well worth the experience, and I’d strongly recommend it to anyone who is looking to escape the cityscape into a lovely area of natural beauty. My only complaint was that it was so popular that many other people had the same idea I did, resulting in some over-crowding in a few of the areas. But overall, it receives 5 stars from me and a desire to return to lose myself there in the future.

Beautiful garden, it's so soothing to walk here. Families with kids, couples and groups enjoyed the mood. Next time we'll visit them on weekdays because the crowd was huge. We anticipated amazing butterflies but there weren't many.

The palmengarten was absolutely stunning and well taken care of, lots to see and the atmosphere is amazing. Its a great place for all ages, they have an awesome play area for the kids too. I just wish there were more toilets but other then that the place is a must see

Excellent botanical garden! Very large, with a wide variety of ecosystems. The tropicarium ranges from the Himalayan mountains to the deserts of South America. Above the waterfall there is a nice city view. In the underground grotto, there are aquariums with fish and plants from all over the world.

I visited the Palmengarten in Frankfurt am Main today 🌿 Such a peaceful oasis in the city. I really enjoyed wandering through the diverse plant collections, enjoying the lush greenery and the little hidden gems such as the charming ponds with fountains. The vibrant colors of the flowers were a delight and it was the perfect escape to connect with nature ❤️❤️❤️

We had some time to waste before a flight and this was the perfect place - in fact it might become a routine to spend time here to finish the yearly Europe stay. Very well mentioned from the grow houses to the passways and bathrooms. It would be amazing if one of the snack stations had vegan options on the menu (might have overlooked one?) Very friendly staff around, too. Thank you Palmengarten!

A Tranquil Escape in the Heart of Frankfurt – Palmengarten Review I visited the Palmengarten on a sunny afternoon and was completely enchanted. Nestled right in the heart of Frankfurt, this botanical garden is an oasis of peace and natural beauty. From the moment I stepped through the gates, I was struck by how well-maintained and thoughtfully curated everything is. Each greenhouse tells its own story—from tropical rainforests and desert landscapes to exotic blooms I had never seen before. The palm house in particular is stunning, with towering trees and a warm, humid atmosphere that instantly transports you to another world. What really made my experience special was the sense of calm that permeates the entire garden. Even though it’s a popular spot, it never felt overcrowded. There are plenty of benches to sit and relax, and the pathways are wide enough to wander at your own pace. I especially enjoyed the rose garden and the lake area, where families and couples were picnicking or just enjoying the view. Whether you’re a nature lover, a photographer, or simply looking for a serene break from city life, Palmengarten is a must-visit. It’s suitable for all ages and offers something year-round—lush greenery in summer, colorful blossoms in spring, and atmospheric strolls in the cooler months.
