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.

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.
