Other information:

Among the plant collections in Hungary this one is outstandigly valuable. The history of its creation is linked to the Cistercian monks, who settled in Zirc in 1182. Today it is functionally separated from the building of the former order. The propagation of the stock, marvellous in its size, is made possible by the favourable precipitation conditions and the mesoclimate. Publications, souvenirs and ornamental shrubs are available at both entrances.
