Richly flowered, located facing the Jet d'Eau and framed by Geneva's oldest 5-star hotels, the Alpine Garden was created on the former natural port of Pâquis, filled in 1862. In 1877, the mausoleum of Charles II of Este-Guelph, Duke of Brunswick, was erected there.
Nestled in the heart of Pâquis, this haven of serenity offers an unforgettable experience to visitors seeking relaxation and natural beauty. Open 24/7, the Jardin des Alpes and its surroundings constitute an ideal destination for a relaxing break with breathtaking views of Lake Geneva. Walkers and couples will appreciate the picturesque pathways that wind through the green spaces, while families will find plenty to enjoy on the lush lawns. The garden pond creates a soothing atmosphere, perfect for contemplation and escape from urban hustle and bustle. Dog owners can also enjoy the area while keeping their companions on a leash. The Brunswick Monument, the focal point of the neighborhood, fascinates with its majestic white marble architecture.
