The Enghien Gardens (French: Parc d'Enghien / Dutch: Park van Edingen) are a domain of 182 hectares in Enghien or 'Edingen', Wallonia, Belgium, created by the dukes of Arenberg in the 17th and 18th century. The park is a green oasis of ponds, gardens and follies. Many considered the gardens a wonder of the world. Nothing remains of the Arenberg castle other than the chapel tower. Within the park, a new château was created in the 20th century. The Enghien municipality acquired the gardens in 1986, and opened them to the public.
