Garten der Schmetterlinge

Im Fürstlichen Schlosspark, 56170 Bendorf-Sayn

In the Garden of Butterflies, hundreds of exotic butterflies fly freely through two planted glass halls. Orchids and banana plants, as well as dwarf quails, turtles, tropical finches, and koi create an intense nature experience with educational value.

Nestled in the romantic castle park of Sayn, the Butterfly Garden has been captivating its countless visitors for decades. In two bright glass halls, hundreds of freely flying butterflies from around the world can be observed up close, fluttering among orchids, hibiscus, and banana plants. In addition to the variety of exotic butterflies, dwarf quails with their tiny chicks, turtles, tropical finches, and colorful Japanese koi also enliven the facility. Created by Princess Gabriela of Sayn-Wittgenstein, this special refuge combines an intense nature experience with the aim of raising awareness of the beauty and vulnerability of butterflies – including our native species.
