Schloss Herrenhausen stands in Herrenhausen-Stöcken, in the Region Hannover district, Lower Saxony, at the heart of a baroque garden complex founded in the 17th century. The present building, rebuilt after the destruction of the former Welf palace, now houses a museum displaying ceremonial carriages and baroque treasures from the House of Hanover. The visit extends naturally into the adjoining Great Garden, whose geometric layout has survived the centuries largely unchanged.

What to know

The museum occupies the rebuilt Schloss, while the surrounding gardens form a separate area to explore on foot.
The baroque Great Garden can be visited year round and is worth a substantial part of the walk.
On certain event days the gardens close earlier than usual, so it is worth checking in advance.
No verified information on fees, opening hours or accessibility is available here, so it is best to check directly.
