On your tour through the
palaeontological and phytogeographical section you will find fossil
and recent plant formations reconstructed in the form of miniature,
artificial landscapes. Some exhibits show the origin of cultivated
plants and bring examples of products derived from them, such as oils,
spices, fibres and wood. The ephemeral world of fungi is captured by
life-size models of mushrooms and toadstools. In the Egyptian section
you can admire both relicts and reconstructions of flower garlands and
other herbal decorations from the tombs of the Pharaos.
In addition to the permanent exhibition, temporary exhibitions are organized which focus on special topics related to botany.
The museum is situated at Königin-Luise-Str.6-8. Admission is
free. Opening hours...
