Botanic school of Jardin des Plantes, Botanical education center in Jardin des Plantes, France.
The Botanical School features over 2,500 plant species arranged by classification, demonstrating the natural progression of temperate vegetation across designated garden areas.
Established in 1635 under Louis XIII, the garden underwent six major reorganizations to incorporate new scientific discoveries, including Darwin's evolutionary principles.
The educational gardens serve as an open laboratory where students, researchers, and visitors study plant diversity through systematic classification methods.
The garden opens daily from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM with seasonal variations, offering free entry and wheelchair accessibility upon request.
The school maintains specialized sections featuring medicinal herbs, textile plants, and agricultural specimens, supporting both scientific research and public education.
