The Great Garden is considered the heart of the Herrenhausen Gardens and is one of the most important baroque gardens in Europe. The basic structure of the 50.2 hectare garden area is virtually unchanged today. In addition to the impressive garden art, the various sculptures that are illuminated for individual events as well as the large fountain with its 70 meter high water column are also impressive.
Consisting of individual gardens, the Great Garden is a popular destination not only for tourists. The Herrenhausen open-air theater also becomes a venue here in the summer

Grotto Nikki de Saint Phalle:
The interior design of the grotto in the Great Garden was Niki de Saint Phalle's last work.
The grotto was built in 1676 in the Great Garden. From 2001 to 2003, the three interior rooms were redesigned according to plans by Niki de Saint Phalle. Colorful glass and mirror ornaments symbolize spirituality.
