Amazonienhaus, Modern greenhouse in Bad Cannstatt, Germany
The Amazonienhaus is a modern tropical greenhouse in Bad Cannstatt's botanical garden with a steel frame and expansive glass walls. The building stretches about 65 meters and rises about 14 meters high, allowing daylight to fill the interior and create a green world with hundreds of plant species from the Amazon region.
The tropical greenhouse opened in 2004 as an expansion to the Wilhelma botanical gardens, which began in 1850 as a royal pleasure ground. This expansion reflects how the gardens evolved into a modern nature education center over more than a century.
The greenhouse displays tropical plant species from South America and gives visitors a sense of rainforest biodiversity up close. People come here to experience the variety of these distant ecosystems and learn about their importance.
Visitors can explore the greenhouse at their own pace or join guided tours to learn more about the plants and their ecosystem. The tropical interior remains warm and humid year-round, so light clothing and sturdy shoes are recommended.
The interior is specially climate-controlled to replicate Amazon rainforest conditions, with constant warmth and high humidity throughout the year. This technical setup allows hundreds of delicate tropical plant species to thrive and be preserved as a living collection.
