Botanischer Garten Karlsruhe, Botanical garden and cultural heritage monument in Karlsruhe, Germany.
Botanischer Garten Karlsruhe is a 5 hectare facility featuring collections of Mediterranean, tropical, and desert plants organized by climate type. The grounds include greenhouses and display halls that protect sensitive species while allowing visitors to observe them.
The garden was founded in 1808 by Margrave Karl Wilhelm and received its distinctive greenhouses between 1853 and 1857, designed by architect Heinrich Hubsch. These structures continue to define its character today.
The garden serves as a place where visitors can explore plant diversity from various climatic zones around the world. Walking through the pathways, one encounters exotic specimens that demonstrate the range of natural plant forms.
The garden is located at Hans-Thoma-Strasse 6 next to the palace gardens and is easy to reach. Plan to spend several hours exploring all sections and greenhouses at a comfortable pace.
The garden contains tree specimens that were planted in the 19th century and continue to display their history. The reconstructed Camellia House showcases specialized collections of cacti and succulents in a restored historic building.
