Good to know

The Gardens are large and there’s plenty to see. It’s therefore best to plan around a visit lasting between 3 and 6 hours. With paths totalling 7 km and an elevation difference of 100 metres, good walking shoes are a necessity. If too much walking isn’t for you, don’t worry. The 4 circuit trails with only a slight elevation difference still provide stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The Gardens are also accessible to those requiring walking aids. 

Dogs

Our four-legged friends have a slightly different idea of how to behave in a garden. Dogs may be man's best friend, but they can unwittingly damage tender buds. Some plants in the garden are also poisonous. Unfortunately, dogs and other animals cannot enter the grounds.

One ticket, two highlights

Each entry ticket admits one person to the Gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle and the Touriseum . The Visitor Centre and shop are accessed freely, but the restaurant only admits visitors in possession of an entry ticket to Trauttmansdorff. Each single-entry ticket is only valid on the day as it was issued. After exiting, re-entry is unfortunately not possible. Please note that in case of unexpected weather events, accidents, etc. tickets cannot be refunded.

Discounts

Reduced prices on an entry ticket are only possible if backed up with valid proof. Please note that guest cards cannot be used to receive a discount. Reduced admission is only granted in respect of the following partner businesses:

Payments

Cash payments of up to €999.99 are accepted. Please note that state institutions and public bodies are exempt from the increase in cash payments of up to €2,999.99 (in terms of the Stability Act, 28.12.15, No. 208). The Trauttmansdorff ticket office only accepts the following cards as payment: Bancomat (EC card), credit card (VISA or Mastercard) and NEXI. If you require an [invoice (FAQ link)], kindly let us know at least 1 week before your visit info@trauttmansdorff.it.
