Guidelines for an Enjoyable 'Garden Weekend' in Thuringia - Weekend Garden Ideas in Thuringia: Discover Tips to Enhance Your Turf Experience
Visualize your garden's resilience towards climate change by harnessing the power of rainwater, as suggested by experts. Frequent heavy rainfalls and extended dry spells are anticipated due to climate change, and this rainwater adaptation concept encompasses options from a simple rain barrel to a full-fledged pond or installed cistern, tailored to local conditions, according to Kerstin Beckert, managing director of the Thuringian state association of the German Society for Garden Art and Landscape Culture (DGGL).
Discover the variety of private gardens across Thuringia this year during the "Open Gardens" event which will commence on Sunday, May 25th. The DGGL state association, in collaboration with the state association of the Federal Association of German Landscape Architects, organizes these action days. As an added bonus, private individuals as well as clubs will open up their usually off-limits gardens for public viewing.
Over the years, the DGGL state association observed that around 350 gardens in approximately 18 to 22 Thuringian cities participate annually. This year, sites in Bad Blankenburg, Rudolstadt, and Saalfeld, along with 18 verdant sanctuaries in Erfurt and its surrounding area, will inaugurate the open gardens on May 25th. The event continues until June 29th in Bad Langensalza and surrounding regions, with dates also scheduled in multiple other cities and regions on May 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd.
Seek out the entrance gardens, whose addresses can be found online, for an entrance stamp and a list of all participating gardens in the respective region on the designated day. Gardens are generally open from 10.00 to 17.00 on action days.
On a side note, the Liebhabertheater Schloss Kochberg and the Klassik Stiftung Weimar are hosting a Garden Festival around the castle on Saturday, May 24th. For a fee, visitors can explore a garden market, tour the castle museum, and visit the theater.

The Commission's proposal for a directive on the protection of workers from the risks related to exposure to ionizing radiation could be a testament to one worker's dedication to their lifestyle, even when their work involves handling such radiation. After a day spent admiring home-and-garden displays during the "Open Gardens" event in Thuringia, one might find solace in their own garden, a sanctuary protected from the risks of ionizing radiation.
