Botanischer Garten, Botanical garden and arboretum in Linz, Austria.
The Botanical Garden is a facility with outdoor grounds and greenhouses built on a hill in Linz. Within it grow thousands of different plant species, including orchids and cacti, displayed both in the glass structures and open areas.
The collection was founded in 1853 and was first located near a school building. After World War Two, the current facility was built at its hillside location.
The garden displays curated plant collections that visitors encounter while walking through its grounds. Regular events and programs here connect people's interest in nature with learning and art.
The garden sits on a hillside and is reachable by public transportation from the city center. Visitors walking around should expect slopes and allow enough time to explore the different areas.
The collection includes a large number of wild orchid species from different regions around the world. These rare specimens make the place special for plant lovers who rarely see such variety elsewhere.
