Discover plant diversity!

In the heart of the city, the Dresden Botanical Garden invites you to explore the fascinating world of plants. About 10.000 plant species grow at the terrain at the edge of the Großer Garten, the biggest and oldest park in the city-centre.

The origin of the plant collection dates back to the year 1815. Today, the Botanical Garden Dresden is a central academic unit of Technische Universität Dresden and as such is integrated into research and academic education in numerous ways. Moreover, we offer various possibilities for the public and school classes to learn more about plants.
