I visited the rose garden near the monastery and it honestly felt like one of those quiet, almost unreal Swiss moments—a mix of nature, history, and views all coming together perfectly. Beauty Setting The garden sits on a slope below the monastery, surrounded by vines and overlooking Lake Zurich. The roses themselves are stunning, but what elevates it is the layered scenery—flowers, old town, lake, and mountains all in one frame. Views Atmosphere This is where it really stands out. From the garden, you get beautiful panoramic views toward the castle and across the lake. It feels peaceful and almost meditative. Experience Walkability Getting there is part of the charm.

Entzückender Rosengarten in zwei Teilen in mittelalterlichem Ambiente. Sehr gepflegt. Die Rosen sehen im August noch sehr gesund aus und blühen äußerst üppig zum zweiten Mal. Sehr hübsche Anlage. Ein länglicher Garten unterhalb eines Weinberges und ein quadratischer Teil mit einem mittigen Springbrunnen. Sehr viele hübsche und bunte Sorten. Einziges Manko: Leider sind die Rosensorten nicht gekennzeichnet. Aber man freut sich trotzdem über den schönen, herzerfrischenden Anblick.
We came to Rapperswil during our tour of Liechtenstein and Heidiland from Zurich. It was a very beautiful garden just below castle with a lot of pretty roses surrounded by lake and mountains. Rapperswil itself is a very small but beautiful place about an hour drive from Zurich. There was a marina and some nice restaurants. One can reach here by car, train or boat. Worth spending an afternoon !!

Me encantan estos jardines. Las rosas están en su mejor época del año, normalmente en Mayo. Con un delicioso olor a rosas y un espectáculo de colores y formas. Lo recomiendo mucho para los amantes de las flores u para los fotógrafos. Simplemente genial
Jardin rien que pour nous en ce samedi pluvieux, magnifiques roses de toutes les couleurs en cette saison
Very nice garden, with many varieties of roses. Sadly not many had bloomed when I visited.
Leider blühen nur noch wenige Rosen. Das Wetter war kühl und regnerisch.
