Linnaean Garden, Botanical garden in Uppsala, Sweden.

The Linnaean Garden features 1,300 plant species arranged according to the classification system developed by Carl Linnaeus, with pruned hedges and straight paths.

Founded in 1655 by Olaus Rudbeck, the garden suffered damage from the Uppsala fire of 1702 before Carl Linnaeus redesigned it in 1741.

The garden houses the Linnaeus Museum, established in 1937, displaying personal artifacts, furniture, and scientific collections from the renowned botanist's life.

The garden remains accessible to visitors from May through September, offering guided tours and educational programs about botanical science and classification methods.

The garden maintains its original French-style layout from the 1700s, preserving plant specimens exactly as described in Linnaeus's publication Hortus Upsaliensis.
