Linnaeus Garden

The Linnaeus Garden, the oldest botanical garden in the country (founded in 1758 by Carolus Linnaeus). There were approximately 1300 species of plants, cultivated by Linnaeus and arranged according to his own system.

His system, which is regarded as the beginning of modern botanical and zoological nomenclature, was introduced as a way to assign names to plants and animals. He created the standard of class, order, genus and species. But particularly he made it possible to identify plants and animals

It was the general consensus of the group that he was the reason for our grades in biology and botany among other science classes we all took!
