Wildegg Castle is majestically placed on a hill and surrounded by an imposing garden.

It was founded in the first half of the 13th century by the Habsburgs and later inhabited by the noble von Effinger family. Today, Wildegg Castle is a residential museum with about 37 living and working rooms of the noble family.

Vegetable and herb gardens were very varied, today 80% of the original plant are unfortunately extinct.

Historical landscape building, the gardens are of particular interest in growing enough to keep the castle in food supplies.

Lovely outing @almi thanks for sharing.
