Rosendals Trädgård

Rosendals Trädgård is a biodynamic garden on the island of Djurgården featuring fruit trees, greenhouses, and rose beds. The grounds also include a wine garden with several grape varieties planted near the orangery building.

King Karl XIV Johan purchased the land in 1817 and had it redesigned in the English style, with architect Fredrik Blom building a castle structure in 1819. This royal past shaped the garden's development over time.

The place demonstrates biodynamic farming methods that visitors can observe through regular classes and hands-on demonstrations throughout the year. The gardeners share how these sustainable techniques work in daily practice.

The grounds are accessible year-round with wide paths between garden beds and greenhouses. An on-site café serves meals and drinks daily using locally grown ingredients.

The grounds preserve over one hundred rose varieties and numerous heritage apple trees rarely found in modern gardens. This plant collection contributes to conserving rare horticultural strains.
