The Schau- und Sichtungsgarten Hermannshof (2.2 hectares), also known as the Hermannshof Weinheim, is a botanical garden located at Babostraße 5, Weinheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is open daily in the summer and weekdays in winter; admission is free. Today's garden was first established as a private garden over 200 years ago. It was acquired by the Freudenberg industrialist family in 1888, and in the 1920s redesigned by landscape architect Wiepking-Jürgen Heinrich Mann. Between 1981-1983 it was again redesigned as a public garden by landscape architect Hans Luz of Stuttgart, and is now a scientific institution jointly owned by the Freudenberg Company and the town of Weinheim. The garden cultivates about 2500 taxa arranged in naturalistic plantings, including two theme gardens: a peony collection (created 1998) and North American prairie garden (2001, 1500 m²) containing over 350 plants. It also contains a number of notable trees, including specimens of ''Platanus orientalis'' and ''Platanus × hispanica'' that are over 230 years old, as well as ''Cedrus atlantica'', ''Ginkgo biloba'', ''Magnolia denudata'', ''Magnolia × soulangeana'', ''Myrtus communis'', and ''Sequoia'' dating from the late 19th century. == See also == * Exotenwald Weinheim * List of botanical gardens in Germany 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Schau- und Sichtungsgarten Hermannshof」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
