Rose route 8

Walk through the gardens with the rose book and read about the "queen of flowers".

In early summer, a thousand rose bushes in over 250 mostly historical rose varieties transform Kartause Ittingen into a romantic blossoming magic. Switzerland's largest collection of historic rose varieties fascinates every year.

Accompanied by the book "The Roses of Kartause Ittingen", the walk through the gardens becomes a beguiling journey into the history of the rose in general and the art of Ittingen in particular.

The book is available in the monastery shop and in the museum shop at a price of CHF 58.-
