A small, intimate garden nestled on a hillside overlooking the historic town of Galena. The secluded and privately owned three and one-half acre garden sits atop natural outcroppings which have been enhanced with hand built terraces. Water features include flowing brooks, ponds, and a twenty-foot waterfall cascading from a natural bluff. A replica of a small mine cut into the side of a limestone wall and a sunken garden built in the ruins of one of the first African-American churches in Illinois are among other unexpected delights. Two gazebos provide a place to reflect upon this unique and beautiful treasure. Due to challenging terrain sturdy walking shoes are recommended. Linmar Gardens is not handicap accessible. Located on South Prospect Street, Galena.

Meander on a guided tour along paths through a collection of vibrant annual and perennial flowers, planted artistically around the inviting grounds.
