The L’Huillier–Coburg Castle in Edelény is one of the largest and most beautiful Baroque castles in Hungary, boasting outstanding historical importance and a unique atmosphere. Its picturesque, 12-hectare park lies in the embrace of the Bódva River and its backwater, set within a magnificent natural environment. With its romantic promenades, it serves as an ideal location for the "Rendez-vous in the European Gardens 2026" program series.
Built between 1716 and 1730, the L’Huillier–Coburg Castle now attracts visitors with a unique experience: a special, guided garden tour. This takes place within the framework of a pleasant walk through the castle park, which is a protected Natura 2000 site, home to outstanding natural values and a rich variety of flora and fauna. In the 18th century, a magnificent geometric French garden (Jardin à la française) was created here. At the beginning of the 19th century, the park was transformed into a natural English landscape garden by the then-owners, the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha ducal family, the features of which can still be admired today. In the park, visitors can walk in the cool shade of huge plane trees and noble columnar oaks.
We welcome our visitors with 45-minute guided garden tours, in line with this year's theme: The view.
