It is one of the richest gardens in the whole country. Marquis de Pombal ordered its construction in 1772, in order to be the “natural history” lab of the University of Coimbra. Designed by Italian artists, the Botanical Garden covers a wood area, as well as six ledges with several steaming cabinets, lakes, tanks and fountains. At the entry of the garden, you will see a statue of Avelar Brotero, Botanical Garden’s first director, created by Soares dos Reis. This is the ideal place for peaceful walks or open-air study sessions. The Botanical Garden still plays nowadays a major role in scientific research. Covering over 1200 species, most of them rare or exotic, this garden provides a pleasant trip to the vegetal kingdom and to the world.
