Lauritzen Gardens

Lauritzen Gardens is a living museum of unique four-season plant displays, maintained to the highest standards consistent with environmental stewardship. We provide memorable educational and aesthetic experiences for all. The garden is an urban oasis of beauty and tranquility, a hidden sanctuary in the heart of the city. The Gardens is a 100-acre site featuring many outdoor garden areas that thrives near downtown Omaha. Since opening in 2001, new garden areas have been added each year. These include the Victorian garden, The Song of the Lark Meadow, and a four-acre arboretum and bird sanctuary. The visitor and education center includes a 5,000-square-foot floral display hall, café, gift shop, resource library, classrooms, banquet areas and community room.
