Botanical Garden

The Botanical Garden in Lodz is one of the largest gardens in Poland. On the area of 76 ha, there are over 3400 species, kinds, and mixes (taxa) of ground plants, and around 2000 taxa of greenhouse plants. Together with the nearby City ZOO, Józef Piłsudski Park, called by the inhabitants “Na Zdrowiu”, and the nature reserve Polesie Konstantynowskie, it constitutes over 250-ha green lungs of the city. In its current form, the garden was opened to the public in stages, beginning in the 1970’s. The Palm House situated in the Źródliska Park also belongs to the Botanical Garden.

The Botanical Garden is divided into 9  different parts:

  • Alpine garden
  • Section of plan biology and morphology
  • Section of collection of ornamental plants
  • Section of park green areas

Apart from the incredibly diverse nature found at the Botanical Garden, visitors can also see the plant open-air museum with flower species, herbs, and fruit typical for the Polish countryside, presented on the background of a country cottage brought directly from the village of Ldzań.
