Botanischer Garten & Museum

Around Berlin


Berlin’s vast Freie Universität Berlin–affiliated botanical gardens boast 22,000 plant species. It's an inspirational spot to reconnect with nature. Especially enchanting is the Grosse Tropenhaus greenhouse, the muggy home of an entire bamboo forest. For a more in-depth look, visit the museum. Enter from Unter den Eichen or Königin-Luise-Platz.
