The botanical garden in Münster was founded in 1803 by decree of Heinrich Friedrich Karl vom und zum Stein at the medical faculty of the Westphalian Wilhelms University.

The garden was created as a teaching and research facility, and the first greenhouses were built as early as 1804.

The Botanical Garden of the University of Münster was founded in 1803 and serves as a scientific institution for research and teaching. In addition, other tasks are performed here, including the preservation of biodiversity and genetic resources and the maintenance and enhancement of valuable plant collections.

So simple but great effect.
If you look through the woodpecker peephole, you will see two woodpecker holes / nests in the tree trunk.

The botanical garden is clearly divided into various departments (e.g. sand heather / dunes or medicinal plants, etc.) and is located in the castle park. It can be visited without admission during opening hours. Bicycles are not allowed, dogs must be on a leash.

Small but nice and free of charge. Wonderful horticulture in an oasis of calm. From pond to alpine garden to sequoia trees and moorland, everything is available. Also perfect for children who will love the small paths through the garden.

The very old copper beech, which "died" in 2015, will now continue through the natural process. A new, young copper beech was planted at its old location.

In addition to a great range of plants, the facility impresses with its design. There are countless niches with seating. Greenhouses and a pond in the middle of the garden.

"... The botanical garden of the Wilhelms-Universität zu Münster on the outskirts of the city center is much more than a scientific facility. Rather, the botanical garden is also valued as an oasis of calm Munster Castle.

Since 1803 in the service of research and teaching
The Botanical Garden in Münster was founded as early as 1803. The oldest collection is the Alpinum, laid out in 1823. There are a total of 23 themed gardens in the Botanical Garden, including the touch and smell garden, the large tropical house and the orangery. In addition, numerous deciduous and coniferous trees are in the foreground of the 8,000 different plant species. Of the 10 greenhouses, 6 are also open to the public, but they only make up a small part of the entire complex. ... "
