On 27th June 2025 the European Garden Award of the Schloss Dyck Foundation (Jüchen, Germany) and the European Garden Heritage Network EGHN was handed out at Schloss Dyck.

For the third time, three winners in the category “Climate adaptation measures in parks and gardens” were awarded. We have to thank the German Federal Ministry of Housing, Urban Development and Building for their funding and support. This category of the award adds to the federal programme “Adapting urban spaces to climate change”.

Continued support by “Garpa Garden & Park Furniture” and last but not least the the knowledge and commitment of our jury members – with Johanna Leissner (Germany), Phillip Sattler (Germany), Roswitha Arnold (Chair/Germany), Ed Bennis (Great Britain), Lieneke van Campen (Netherlands), Gunnar Ericson (Sweden), Jacob Fischer (Denmark), Davorin Gazvoda (Slovenia), Maren Köhler-Prehn (Germany), Jens Spanjer (Germany), Michael Walker (Great Britain) – resulted in nine prizes that were handed out in three categories.
