Facts and practical information

The Great Greenhouse is located in Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe in Kassel and was built in 1822/23 by court architect Johann Conrad Bromeis under Elector Wilhelm II for the cultivation of precious exotic plants. The original dome-like central building was later replaced by a more massive palm house. The filigree iron and glass construction took a pioneering position in Germany. Some historic plants are kept in the Great Greenhouse. It is managed by the Museumslandschaft Hessen Kassel and can be visited from Advent 1 to May.
