Palmengarten (Botanical Garden Frankfurt)

Botanical Garden
For more than 150 years, the Palmengarten has been enchanting visitors with its glass greenhouses and countless native and exotic plants.

Fancy a trip to the desert, a jungle tour or a journey through a mangrove forest? At Frankfurt's Palmengarten, you can easily go on a botanical world tour and take a walk through the Earth's climate zones. In the 20-hectare park, everything that flora has to offer grows and proliferates in the open air and in various greenhouses: delicate flowers, opulent rhododendrons, spiky giant cacti, alpine herbs and carnivorous exotics. And of course the eponymous palm trees. Some mighty specimens are more than 100 years old. Guided tours, exhibitions and music events are also regularly organised among the lush greenery. The centrepiece of the garden is the 18-metre-high palm house, which was opened in 1869 and is still one of the largest in Europe. Also worth seeing: the Goethe Garden, named after the city's famous son. Incidentally, he also enjoyed travelling - and was a passionate gardener.
