Guided tour - a garden in a class of its own

What to know

In the middle of Skjoldungernes Land National Park and beautifully located by Roskilde Fjord you will find Sct. Hans Garden The historic garden was originally established as a hospital garden in 1816 and has existed for as long as there has been a psychiatric hospital at Sct. Hans. The nursery has been of great importance to St. Hans Hospital throughout the ages. The area was surrounded by vegetable fields, cabbage gardens and fruit groves that gardeners and patients took care of. The hospital has been self-sufficient for periods Today, Sct. Hans Have is a socio-economic enterprise that, based on the special history of the place, aims to promote mental health through nature, culture and communities The garden invites vulnerable citizens, unemployed people and volunteers to help tend the garden. Today we grow berries, fruits, herbs and edible flowers inspired by organic and regenerative principles In this way, Sct. Hans Have builds on the special history of the place. - Date: 7 October 2026 - Time: 16:00–17:00 - Venue: Sct. Hans Have - Address: Urtevænget 14, Roskilde, Denmark - Admission: From DKK 95
