Exotenwald Weinheim, Arboretum and botanical garden in Weinheim, Germany
The Exotenwald spans 60 hectares next to Schlosspark, containing 130 different tree species from Europe, Asia, North America, and North Africa.
Minister Christian Friedrich Gustav Freiherr von Berckheim established the arboretum in 1871, planting 12,494 trees across 36 hectares from nurseries in Orleans, Ghent, and Exeter.
The garden layout allows visitors to observe groups of non-native trees arranged as they naturally grow in their original geographical regions.
The arboretum remains open daily without entrance fees, offering multiple walking paths with signs identifying the diverse collection of trees and plants.
Within a dedicated 2-hectare section, the garden contains 1,460 sequoia trees, alongside specimens of Calocedrus decurrens and Pinus jeffreyi.
