Explore Urban Oases During European Heritage Days 2016

Historic gardens, city parks, botanical gardens and other green spaces will be a symbol of this year’s European Heritage Days in Zug and accross Switzerland. Taking place for the 23rd time, Swiss Denkmaltage (Heritage Days) festival will celebrate urban green areas and their value for improving the quality of modern lifestyle, as well as for building a sustainable future.


The theme is designed to support the initiative titled “The Year of Gardens,” which will be marked across the country throughout the year 2016. Aiming to promote the need for environmental protection and conservation of Swiss gardens, parks and urban oases, the initiative emphasizes the role these spaces have in the everyday life of modern citizens. They represent spaces for encounters, relaxation and reconnection with nature, which is why they positively complement today’s hectic lifestyle and contribute to improving its quality.
