Traveler reviews
Елизавета Струц
★★★★★8 months agoA small, free, but very rich botanical garden at the university. It is important to note that opening hours vary depending on the season. In November, it was open from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. But I recommend visiting it, as there are also greenhouses there.
Thomas Defise
★★★★★4 years agoI would recommend easily 90 minutes for non « plant specialists ». The two areas I really liked were the greenhouses. As it is not near all the main « attractions » of Strasbourg, there is not a lot of tourists, which allows you to really enjoy the botanical garden. Tips: - Don’t forget to visit the greenhouses, however it may be hot inside them. - Do not forget to watch when the garden is opened, as it is not near all the other « main » attractions.
