RUNDĀLES PILS PARKSRundāles pils baroka dārzs (10 ha) ierīkots dārznieku Kristofera un Mihaela Veilandu vadībā līdztekus pils būvniecībai (1736–1740) un atjaunots muzeja pastā-vēšanas laikā, saglabājot arhitekta Rastrelli sākotnējo plānojumu. Tagad tajā apskatāmi visi baroka dārzam raksturīgie elementi – ornamentālais parters, strūkl- aka, Zaļais teātris, bosketi, pergolas, paviljoni, labi-rints. Iekopts rožu dārzs (ap 2200 šķirņu), izveidota dekoratīvo koku un krūmu kolekcija, ierīkoti 18. gs. atbilstošu vasaras puķu un ziemciešu stādījumi.
Uz dienvidiem no pils atrodas medību parks, bet platības ziemeļu pusē kalpo saimnieciskām vajadzī-bām. Blakus vecajam pilskrogam ierīkota oranžērija ar grāfienes Šuvalovas laikā (19. gs. vidus) iecienītiem augiem.
Rundāles pils ansambļa teritorija kopumā aizņem 85 hektārus.
