A Baroque park in the French style with exotic trees and shrubs
The Botanical Gardens primarily serve research and teaching. Around 11,000 plant species are cultivated here. The outdoor area consists of a park-like arboretum (tree collection) and the flower beds of the various teaching departments. The nine showhouses show around 4,500 species: Tropical plants, ferns, mangroves, water lilies, cacti and orchids from all over the world live here in natural communities. In addition, there are four smaller culture and showhouses.
