Alter Botanischer Garten

The Alter Botanischer Garten Marburg 3.6 hectares, otherwise called the Alter Botanischer Garten am Pilgrimstein, is a noteworthy arboretum and professional flowerbed kept up by the University of Marburg and situated at Pilgrimstein, Marburg, Hesse, Germany. It is open every day without charge. Marburg's first professional flowerbed was set up between 1527-1533 when the humanist, artist, doctor and botanist Euricius Cordus, thought about an organizer of logical herbal science in Germany, is known to have set up a private greenhouse of which plans little is known today.

In 1786 a second greenery enclosure endeavor was made by Professor Conrad Moench close to the Elisabeth Church Marburg. The present greenhouse dates to 1810 when Georg Wilhelm Franz Wenderoth 1774-1861 got the site from Jerome Bonaparte in return for the prior Ketzerbach garden, which he at that point formed into the English style to make a blend of park scene and logical patio nursery. In 1861 Albert Wigand changed the greenery enclosure to acclimate with the school of Peter Joseph Lenne and Johann Heinrich Gustav Meyer, making segments particularly for trees. Later on, 1873-1875 the Botanical Institute was worked at Pilgrimstein in Gothic Revival style.
