Guided visit

Geneva, international centre of botany

Sunday 6 November 2022, 14:00

The Botanical Conservatory houses an exceptional heritage of herbariums and documents dedicated to plants.

The visit will be handed over to the current exhibition of the Library, tracing the private origins of these collections, which have given Geneva its status as an international centre of botany.

Sunday Visits
On the 1st Sunday of the month, from April to December
Extend your Sunday stroll to take in the Botanical Conservatory and Gardens of Geneva and choose one or other (or both) of the visits organised on the 1st Sunday of every month. Your guide will be a botanist, horticulturist or researcher and you will discover the many different facets of your “museum”. Meet at 2 p.m. and/or 3.30 p.m. precisely, depending on the visit you have chosen, at the main entrance to the CJBG.
These visits also take place on public holidays (May Day, Whit).

La rue de la Croix rouge au 1er plan et le 1er Conservatoire botanique avec dans le fond le parc des Bastions.
