Botanical Museum Greifswald, Botanical museum at University of Greifswald, Germany.
The Botanical Museum Greifswald maintains a collection of 300,000 specimens, including ferns, spermatophytes, algae, mosses, and lichens from various regions.
Julius Münter established the museum in 1850, expanding upon a herbarium that had existed since the 17th century when Samuel Gustav Wilcke founded the Botanical Gardens.
The museum contains the Arnold's fruit cabinet, a collection of porcelain fruit models manufactured in Gotha between 1856 and 1899.
The museum functions as the central herbarium for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, housing scientific models, instruments, wall charts, and teaching collections for research purposes.
The teaching collection features specialized flower models created by model makers Robert Brendel and Paul Osterloh, representing detailed botanical structures.
