Synopsis
Eggenberg Palace Park in Graz has undergone significant transformation—from a baroque garden to an English landscape park and a modern cultural site. The historical interplay of nature, architecture, and aristocratic life is threatened by urban development and loss of heritage. Postcards, paintings, and archival records reveal its botanical richness, animal keeping, and social use. Current restoration efforts aim to preserve the park’s cultural identity and revive its lost garden spaces, balancing historical authenticity with contemporary needs.
