University of Ferrara Botanic Garden
University of Ferrara Botanic Garden, Botanical garden at University of Ferrara, Italy
The garden contains over 700 outdoor plant species arranged in three main sections: systematic botanical classification, useful plants, and specialized theme gardens.
Founded in 1771, the garden moved several times before settling at its current location in the Turkish Baths Palace grounds in 1963.
The garden maintains strong connections with prominent medical figures like Berengario da Carpi, Niccolò Leoniceno, and Gabriele Falloppio through its historical collections.
Three greenhouses protect 1,300 tropical and subtropical species, which staff relocate outdoors during warm months to create an exotic plants section.
Since 2004, a dedicated area showcases protected flora, featuring rare aquatic and terrestrial plant species native to the region.
