This study developed and validated the Garden Heritage Scale (GHS), a psychometric instrument for measuring attitudes towards historic gardens. The GHS demonstrates sufficient internal validity, confirmed by exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses (n = 233; 183). Convergent and discriminant validity, retest-reliability, and internal consistency were also adequate, making the GHS suitable for further research on attitudes toward historic gardens and their role in environmental education.
