Botanical Garden of the Johannes Gutenberg University

The Botanical Garden of Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz is not only a central facility for research, teaching and further education in the fields of botany, biodiversity and plant sciences, but also a blooming plant paradise.

Plants in the Botanical Garden

The Botanical Garden of Johannes Gutenberg University is a facility for research, teaching, and continuing education. Interested visitors can visit the Botanical Garden year-round. With around 8,500 plant species from nearly every region of the world, the garden is a living museum of plant diversity.

You can explore it on your own, take part in public tours, or book a private tour with a group. Park benches and seating areas in the middle of the garden invite walkers to linger and rest. A visit to the Botanical Garden is worthwhile in every season, as there is so much to discover. Or are you already familiar with the new display greenhouses in the Botanical Garden, the gingerbread tree, or the lifestyle of the ant tuber? No? Then stop by the Botanical Garden on the campus of Johannes Gutenberg University!
