The “Garden Castle of Herberstein” is located in the east of Styria in the municipality of Stubenberg am See. The fortified castle stands high on an east-west-facing rock. Not visible from distance, in the middle of a nature reserve.

Immersed in the waters of Lake Maggiore, which accumulate heat during the summer and return it to the atmosphere in the winter, the Islands enjoy a subtropical climate.

Arundel Castle is the home of the Earl’s of Arundel & Dukes of Norfolk for centuries (since1067) and the current Duke and Duchess of Norfolk are forward thinking and great exponents of the gardens which makes working at Arundel Castle fantastic, the garden team feel that they are not only part of history, but also making history as the gardens continue to evolve.
