Späth-Arboretum, Scientific arboretum in Treptow-Köpenick, Germany.
The Späth-Arboretum is a botanical garden in the Treptow-Köpenick district containing hundreds of tree and shrub varieties. The grounds display different plants in an English garden style with pathways for walking.
Franz Ludwig Späth founded this place in 1879 based on one of the world's largest tree nurseries of that time. Garden designer Gustav Meyer created the original layout of the plantings.
The place is named after its founder Franz Ludwig Späth and serves as a space where people come to experience nature and discover different plants. Visitors walk through the grounds to observe trees and greenery in a relaxed setting.
The grounds can be explored on foot and are easy to reach by public transport. Visitors should know that access is limited by season, so the best time to visit for walking is during warmer months.
The grounds contain a special collection of medicinal plants and aromatic herbs that visitors often overlook. A central rock garden built in 1928 displays a different design approach compared to the rest of the grounds.
