DBW's Botanical Garden, Botanical garden in Visby, Sweden.
DBW's Botanical Garden in Visby is a plant collection organized into several themed sections, including rock gardens, herb beds, and areas showcasing local Swedish flora. The collection features both native plant species and carefully cultivated exotic plants, which benefit from the site's location near the Baltic Sea.
The garden was founded in the early twentieth century and developed into a center for plant studies and conservation in southern Sweden. Over the decades, it established itself as an important institution for preserving and documenting local plant diversity.
The garden serves as a learning space where regular workshops and school partnerships teach visitors about plant species and their natural habitats. Collaborations with local institutions make it an important hub for environmental education in the region.
The garden is located on Strandgatan street in central Visby and is open around the clock. Visitors can arrive at any time without worrying about operating hours, making it flexible for exploration.
The proximity to the Baltic Sea creates specific growing conditions that allow both hardy native species and more delicate tropical plants to be cultivated in one location. This blend of local and distant plant worlds makes the place botanically interesting.
