The Linnaeus Garden in Uppsala, Sweden, is a charming botanical garden with significant historical importance. As the former home and workplace of Carl Linnaeus, the father of modern taxonomy, it offers visitors a glimpse into 18th-century botanical studies. The garden features a wide variety of plants, many of which are the same species that Linnaeus himself cultivated and studied.
Visitors appreciate the well-maintained grounds and the opportunity to learn about Linnaeus's life and work. The garden's layout remains true to its original design, providing an authentic experience. The adjacent Linnaeus Museum, housed in the scientist's former residence, adds depth to the visit with its period furnishings and exhibitions.
While many find the garden peaceful and educational, some visitors note that it's relatively small and can be explored quickly. The experience may be less engaging for those not particularly interested in botany or scientific history. Some reviewers mention that more detailed information in English would enhance the experience for international visitors.
The best time to visit is during late spring and summer when the garden is in full bloom. Guided tours are available and highly recommended for a more informative experience. However, a few visitors find the entrance fee slightly high for the size of the attraction.
Overall, The Linnaeus Garden offers a pleasant and educational experience, especially for those interested in botany, history, or the life of Carl Linnaeus. While it may not be a full-day attraction, it provides a serene environment and valuable insights into the foundations of modern botanical science.
