Information for blind and partially sighted visitors

There are no parking facilities available on the grounds of the gardens. The nearest car park is the Q-Park Schlossgarage Carolinenplatz.

The nearest tram stop is ‘Darmstadt Pallaswiesenstraße’. From there, it is about 270 metres along Schloßgartenstraße to the Prinz-Georg-Palais at the northern entrance to the Prinz-Georg-Garten.

Assistance dogs are permitted in the gardens. Please ensure you carry appropriate documentation confirming the dog’s status as an assistance dog and its authorisation to be present.

The paths in the Prinz-Georg-Garten are covered in gravel. In wet weather, the paths may become soft and therefore more difficult to walk on. The park is largely level. Steps (without edge markings) are only found at the southern and south-western exits, as well as at the entrance to the reading room in the Prettlack Garden House. The park closes at nightfall.

At present, there is no guidance system for the visually impaired in the gardens.

The Kulturschätze-App offers an introductory tour that you can either listen to or follow along with.
