Umlauf Sculpture Garden + Museum

I had my wedding at Umlauf Sculpture Garden on May 3, 2025. I cannot think of a more magical location for a venue. The whole day felt like a fairy tale because of the lush greenery, babbling brooks, and elegant sculptures. Pros: They let me visit as many times as I wanted They answered no fewer than 200 of my emails The coordinators were so sweet and easy to work with The venue is gorgeous. Some quick notes: The event rental is only from 4 PM - Midnight, including load in and load out and the amplified sound has to be off my 10. This means extra charges for delivery timing, usually only about an hour and a half of dancing, and other specialized coordination. If you use their preferred vendors, then they can let them come in at 3:30. However, there was a lot of confusion on my wedding day and it set us 30 minutes behind the whole night, which is huge. Working with this venue can be a bit of an undertaking which I underestimated, so just something to note! That all being said, I do not regret my decision to have my wedding here! It was a lovely night.

We loved visiting the garden. It was hot outside, but there is plenty of shade surrounding the garden. There is a nice waterfall to sit near. Great information on each sculpture.

The artist was very talented! Would go again when I visit Austin

Very affordable ticket prices! Parking can be rather difficult, but the garden is surprisingly spacious and nice to walk around. I went to the Lunar New Year event they had during closing hours, which does cost more than usual to attend, but the special effects on the dragon dance was pretty cool.

We were looking for cheap things to do during our trip and are so glad we found this place. We had fun going on a little scavenger hunt to find certain statues. My little niece was excited each time she found one on her paper. It was a nice little walk in nature as well. Highly recommend visiting.

Visited on a family day with free admission and was surprised by how much this little garden offers! I always pass by the garden and peek from outside, but there are more sculptures hidden among plants and trees to be discovered in the garden!!! It just made me feel zen and relaxing by sitting down on a bench listening to the wind and water! The paths, plants, and ponds are so well planned. They have many activities today, like chess, arts and crafts, story time, and pottery. The staffs are super friendly too! Will definitely come back visit again.

The natural "forest like" setting for these sculptures made for a quiet, relaxing stroll through some extraordinary art pieces. I was disturbed a bit by proportions and eye treatments, but the overall exhibit is a must. Many pieces will stay with you long after the visit as the emotion within each sculpture are easily conveyed... sad and joyful.
