Michaela Wannemacher

Inspired by English gardens, a love of the Orient and cool water

The Wannemacher family's property is situated on a hill in the vineyards near Bockfließ Castle. A garden was formed from a bare settlement plot, previously cultivated as a field. Over the course of time, it has changed again and again and adapted to personal needs. The first step in transforming the private garden into a show garden open to the public was the "Nature in the Garden" plaque. As a garden-loving family, they learned about organic cultivation through numerous visits to other show gardens, which the Wannemacher family also gradually implemented.

The fig trees have enjoyed the south-facing view for years and overlook the Marchfeld. Many plants climb and grow upwards. To the west, trees provide protection from the wind and the hot sun in summer. English-style perennial beds line the lawn and enchant with their flowers. A large vegetable patch and the children's ground trampoline had to make way for the natural pool. It has now become an oasis of rest, relaxation and balance and makes it easy to forget everyday life.
