Botanic garden and arboretum in Štramberk, Botanical garden and arboretum in Štramberk, Czech Republic

The garden spans across 10 hectares within a former limestone quarry, featuring diverse plant collections, rock formations, and water elements at the base of Bílá hora mountain.

The site operated as a limestone quarry from 1860 until the 1920s, then served as a municipal waste site before biologist Petr Pavlík initiated its transformation in 1996.

The garden includes a stone labyrinth with an amphitheater and the Rock Chapel of John the Baptist, connecting nature with regional religious elements.

The garden remains open from Tuesday to Sunday between 10:00 and 17:00 during warm months, with voluntary admission fees and parking available near the local school.

The limestone wetland at the bottom contains numerous aquatic plants, while the exposed rocks hold fossils including shark teeth and mollusk shells.
