The Rendez-vous aux jardins initiative was launched in France in 2003 to raise public awareness of the value of historic gardens and castle parks, as well as the importance of their preservation. The highlight of the 2026 edition is the panorama: participants will walk through the entire Pintér-kert arboretum. The walk will take them to the pavilion, the observation tower and the exceptional viewpoints of the upper garden. The guide will retrace the history of this centenary arboretum throughout the course. Don’t forget your binoculars!

Pintér-kert Arborétum

Baranya

Pinter-Garden Arboretum is located in Pécs, in the Tettye district climbing up the Mecsek hillside. It was named after retired bank officer János Pintér (1879-1933).

Serving today as the headquarters of Duna-Drava National Park Directorate, the Pintér-villa standing in the arboretum, was built in the late 19th century. Its owner János Pintér (photo I.), had an interest in botany, and started planting trees around the villa in 1926. Taking advantage of the favourable climate of the area, he created an evergreen collection garden. After his death, a substantial part of the garden was reclaimed by natural forest communities, thus increasing the species richness of the arboretum. Today, an interesting mixture of original plant associations and ornamental species make up the flora of the arboretum.

In addition to the collection of deciduous trees, evergreens, shrubs and perennials, the garden is home to more than 30 protected species, including butcher’s broom, black bryony, and even the strictly protected Banat peony can be admired here. Orchid species are also of great value, as well as a number of native, indigenous plant species of the southern slopes of Mecsek, accompanied by sub-Mediterranean and Mediterranean plants. The area also contains two plant associations listed as protected.

The combination of these features is a great advantage in nature conservation education and awareness-raising: Pintér Garden Arboretum is a permanent location for practical sessions and camps in the Tettye Education Centre of Duna-Drava National Park Directorate. The variety and aesthetic value of the arboretum is further enhanced by the artificially created but near-natural plant community of the garden pond, and the goldfish pool with its putto water feature. The stone sculptures in the garden were created in the Nagyharsány Sculpture Park by local and foreign sculptors in the 1960s and 1970s.
Owing to its botanical values, the arboretum has been listed as a Nature Reserve (protected area of national importance) since 1977, and as part of West-Mecsek Landscape Protection area since 2009.
