 GARDEN  ENTRANCE

​

The Dante Garden, installed on the campus of the University of St. Michael's College in Toronto, Ontario creates a unique experience where one can be with nature and enjoy Dante’s epic poem. Contrary to how most people experience the Divine Comedy - usually in a library or study - the Dante Garden provides a natural outdoor environment, where one can actually walk through Hell, Purgatory and Heaven. The viewer will have their own journey following Dante’s path.

This Dante Sculpture Garden not only creates a unique and beautiful surrounding, but also creates a space for education, culture and spirituality, inspiring new generations of Dante readers and scholars.

​

By using the audio commentary for each Canto provided by this site, visitors of the park can experience a full interactive journey through the Divine Comedy.
