Szarvas Arboretum Nature Reserve, Botanical garden and protected area in Szarvas, Hungary
The Szarvas Arboretum extends across 82 hectares of land, containing more than 1,600 different tree and shrub species within its protected boundaries.
The garden's origins trace back to 1798 when General Péter Bolza obtained the land through marriage, leading to its official establishment as a nature reserve in 1943.
The arboretum maintains educational programs for students and researchers, focusing on plant conservation and environmental studies in the Hungarian landscape.
Visitors can access the arboretum through regular bus services that stop within a 5-minute walk from the main entrance on Bolza Street.
The garden features one of Europe's oldest giant sequoia trees, planted in 1873, marking the initial development of this extensive botanical collection.
