Garden magic in St. Wendeler Land: Discover hidden paradises!
On Whit Monday, June 11, 2025, the “The Open Garden Gate 2025” campaign of the German Society for Garden Art and Landscape Culture (DGGL) took place in St. Wendeler Land. This year, hobby gardeners Gisela Reinhardt from Hangard and Ingrid Koslowski from Urweiler opened their gardens to interested visitors to provide an insight into their individual garden design. This confirmed the Saarbrücken newspaper, who visited the two gardens and collected impressions.
Gisela Reinhardt and Ingrid Koslowski opened their garden gates to share their passion for plants and landscaping. Both gardeners not only showed visitors the beauty of their gardens, but also explained the background to their creative decisions in designing the blooming oases.
The value of garden art
With its campaign, the German Society for Garden Art and Landscape Culture (DGGL) is designing a forum to emphasize the importance of gardens and parks for urban design and society. Callwey emphasizes in his thematic volume on garden art that the care and preservation of these gardens requires commitment and persuasion. The volume deals with remarkable garden works of art such as those in Versailles and Sanssouci, but also provides insights into lesser-known and more recent garden projects.
The DGGL, founded in 1887, is a non-profit association that operates nationwide. She focuses on the areas of contemporary landscape architecture, historical gardens, parks and cultural landscapes and is actively committed to the development and preservation of gardens. Such initiatives are important for sustainable urban planning.
A look into the future
The DGGL's 120-page themed volume not only provides an overview of the history of garden art, but also addresses the future development of gardens. These gardens and parks play an essential role in urban design and contribute to a more livable environment. Events such as “The Open Garden Gate” raise awareness of the importance of garden art and encourage the public to actively participate.
The response to the open gardens shows the population's great interest in garden art and its cultural diversity. Through their participation, Gisela Reinhardt and Ingrid Koslowski made a valuable contribution to this social movement and inspired many visitors to engage with the topic of garden art themselves.
