THE GARDENS

The gardens enchant with a rich variety of moods. As you stroll, new captivating spots continuously unfold, impressing with their natural charm – a place to marvel, explore, and linger. The sculptures installed throughout the garden engage in a lively dialogue with the surrounding nature. The design follows the concept of the Picturesque – a beauty ever-changing through the play of light, seasons, and perspectives.

“Inspired by the wonderful symbiosis of art and nature found in the gardens of southern England, we decided to enrich our winery with a sculpture garden.”

- FRANZ & STEPHANIE VON PFEIL

SCULPTURES
— IN NATURE

The sculpture garden invites you on a stroll through artfully designed spaces that blend seamlessly with the surrounding nature, offering a unique way to experience art. Each year, rotating works by national and international artists open new perspectives, encouraging visitors to discover art in an open, natural setting. Some sculptures remain permanently, now an integral part of the garden’s character.

MAZE &
LABYRINTH

Begin your exploration — the maze excites with high hedges, secret routes, and surprising nooks that invite you to marvel, search, and discover. Stay curious, and you’ll find your way out — maybe with a few fun detours. In the ground labyrinth, there are no dead ends. A single winding path leads to the center — yet sometimes you think you’ve arrived, only to find yourself back at the beginning.

THE CONCEPT
— THE GARDEN

Born in 2006 as a living sculpture, the garden at Kränzelhof has been continuously evolving ever since. Inspired by the philosophy of English landscape gardens, it follows no rigid rules. Instead of symmetry and control, it embraces naturalness, simplicity, and change.

The garden is divided into sections reflecting various themes of life: trust, emotion, courage, heart and love, expression, intuition, and awareness. These areas create spaces for reflection and personal discovery. Thus, the garden is not a place to be explained, but one to be experienced — revealing itself anew with every visit.

CURRENT EXHIBITION

12 April – 12 November 2025: The exhibition “fort und fort träumen…” is dedicated to the life’s work of Michael Höllrigl (1936–2024), whose artistic creations always focused on the human being — fragmented, reassembled, yet deeply tangible.

In line with his guiding principle, “The hand knows more than the head,” his works speak of a moving, quiet power unfolding in harmony with nature.

This project is supported by the cultural association K.art. Learn more about the artists on the K.art website.
