The park at Boller castle south of Horsens fjord has a large collection of plants. Here is a rose-garden, a fuchsia-garden, a herb-garden with kloster plants, an apple orchard, a Japanese garden, here is primrose, and geranium. along the castle-moat are water plants like sweet flag, and big carps live in the water. The park is also known for the old trees. The hollow Boller-oak is ab. 1000 years old and one of the oldest oaks in Denmark - and also one of the thickest. It was once hit by lightning and the top broke off. It has been hollow for the last 200-300 years, but it seems in spite of its old age to be vigorous and in good growth. In the forest by Boller has been plant progeny from the old oak. The garden is open daily 10-20 from 1. April until 15. October.
