    The world's oldest botanical garden of a university, that's what the operators call the garden founded in 1545. This houses over 7000 different botanical species. In order to make these identifiable for the visitor, the Botanical Garden has developed its own app for smartphones. If you want, you can also book a guided tour. This is also available for both individuals and groups.

      The Botanical Garden of Padua is the most original botanical garden in the world. He represents the birth of science, scientific exchanges and the understanding of the relationship between nature and culture. The garden has contributed greatly to the development of modern scientific disciplines, especially botany, medicine, chemistry, ecology and pharmacy. It was founded in 1545 and still retains its original design today: a round, central plot as a symbol of the world, surrounded by a ring of water. Other architectural and practical elements were added later. The botanical garden still serves its original purpose as a center for scientific research.

        This garden is the oldest garden (from 1545) in Europe that is connected to a university. Originally, medicinal plants were grown there. The oldest part still exists in its original form and was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1997.
        Now the garden has 3500 plants and a modern building. Closing day on Monday.
