University of Vienna Botanical Garden

Vienna, Austria, Austria

The University of Vienna Botanical Garden, known as Hortus Botanicus Vindobonensis, is a historic 8-hectare oasis in Vienna's 3rd district adjacent to Belvedere Palace, founded in 1754 by Empress Maria Theresa for medicinal plant cultivation tied to university studies. It evolved from a baroque pharmaceutical garden into a scientific showcase blending 19th-century landscape design with systematic plant displays, greenhouses built 1890-1893, and thematic zones for succulents, cacti, alpine flora, Australian plants, and Austrian vegetation types. War-damaged but rebuilt post-WWII and opened to tourists in 1970, it now supports research, conservation, and education under renowned botanists like Nikolaus von Jacquin, drawing 100,000 visitors yearly to its exotic collections and serene paths.
