Founded in 1545, the University of Padua Botanical Garden is the oldest in the world to have maintained its original location and architectural layout. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997. Green heart of Padua city centre, it is host to more than 6,000 specimens and 3,500 species on a total area of 3.5 hectares. In the old Garden, characterised by a charming circular structure enclosed within walls, there are medicinal, insectivores, poisonous, succulents, aquatic, and ornamental plants, as well as historical plants such as “Goethe’s Palm” (1585). In 2014 the Garden was expanded with the construction of the Biodiversity Garden, consisting of five low-impact large greenhouses where visitors can enjoy a fascinating journey through the planet’s natural biomes – from tropical to sub-humid areas, from temperate zones to deserts – while exploring the thousand-year relationship between plants and humankind.

A beautiful respite in the center if the town near St Anthony and Prato. The medicinal plants are amazing as are the water repellant plants. A great day visit for all ages.
