Brüglingen, Botanical garden and recreational area in Münchenstein, Switzerland.
The Brüglingen park extends across multiple levels with landscaped gardens, featuring a diverse collection of seasonal plants and maintained walking paths.
The area contains a watermill museum dating from 1259, which operated as a grain processing facility until 1925 before its conversion into an educational center.
The Merian Gärten within Brüglingen offers educational programs and gardening courses for school groups, focusing on botanical knowledge and environmental education.
Visitors can access the grounds daily without admission fees and explore the gardens, including the restaurant Iris for refreshments during their visit.
The park houses a life-size model of a diplodocus dinosaur alongside its botanical exhibits, creating an unexpected combination of natural history elements.
