This is a place to which many locals come for a relaxing walk, and the numerous events, art shows and special exhibitions attract scores of visitors.
Create awareness of nature
Our Botanical Gardens are intended to create awareness of the precarious balance of nature and the protection of the environment. Their history begins in the early twentieth century when, after many years of planting, arranging and planning, they Gardens opened to the public in 1911. Since then, they have become a haven of research for scholars from the Botanical Institute at the University of Innsbruck.
