Botanischer Garten spreads across ten hectares in Germany, with more than ten thousand plant species arranged along winding paths. You move from alpine meadows and mountain habitats into steamy tropical greenhouses during one walk. Each collection follows habitat, geography or botanical family, so every turn connects living plants with a wider natural story.

As part of a university, the garden supports research and teaching through work with plants, seeds and living specimens. Guided tours, exhibitions and hands-on workshops invite families, school groups and curious visitors into that work. Rare and threatened species receive special care, including wild plants from Baden-Württemberg, while biological pest control and resource-saving gardening support conservation. International exchange with other botanical gardens helps document and protect the collections.

Look for the contrast between giant tropical leaves under glass and tiny mountain flowers outdoors. Dogs on leads, children with questions and visitors seeking quiet all share these paths.

Spots like this one are the stops myTuur strings into tours through Tübingen. In the app, each story begins where you stand: walk up to a spot and it starts, read it on screen or listen as you go, then follow the route to the next one.
