About
Timișoara's Botanical Park is located behind the Municipal Hospital, occupying an area of about 9 hectares.
Architect Silvia Grumeza first designed this botanical garden in 1966.
1,650 species of plants were planted here between 1986 and 1990, based on phytogeographical and aesthetic criteria, brought from other parks in the country, from private collections or international exchanges of seeds.
Just a little over 200 collection species live here nowadays, and are all grouped into several sectors and subsectors, such as:
Ornamental flora
Romanian flora and vegetation
Mediterranean flora
American flora
Asian flora
The systematic plant sector
The medicinal plants sector
The tropical flora sector
The Botanical Garden of Timișoara was opened to visitors on June 29, 1986.
Free admission.
