Tips

December 7, 2021

Historic Schoonoord Garden is a unique part of Rotterdam's green heritage. The garden contains a rich collection of flora and fauna. The former country estate was originally designed in an English landscape style. Due to the historical elements, unique location and special planting, Schoonoord has been designated as a protected national monument.

The giant Lebanon cedars and the brown beech from around 1860 are the eye-catchers of the garden. You enter the site with hundreds of plant species via the brick arch bridge with the 18th century entrance gate. You will walk along the lush pond, old poison trees, Gunnera plants, a trumpet tree, a wingnut and an American tulip tree. The garden is host to 8 bee colonies, Japanese carp, kingfishers and a tawny owl.
