Botanical garden of Chernivtsi University, Protected botanical garden at Chernivtsi University, Ukraine.
The Botanical Garden of Chernivtsi University is a protected area divided into distinct zones featuring diverse plant collections. Native species grow alongside exotic varieties, all organized by geographic origin and ecological characteristics.
The garden was established in 1877 as part of Chernivtsi University during the Austrian-Hungarian Empire era. This founding reflects the scientific ambitions of that period and the institution's role as a center of learning.
The garden serves as a learning space where students conduct field research and study plant behavior in controlled settings. You can see how the collections support hands-on education in biology and environmental science.
The garden is accessible through guided tours, with information boards placed throughout the grounds explaining plant details. Moving slowly through the zones helps you understand the different plant groupings and their specific characteristics.
The garden forms part of the UNESCO World Heritage university complex, showing how green spaces connect with historical architecture. The collections were originally created for academic research and continue to support specialized botanical studies today.
