Come to the Palm House!

The Palm House is one of the historic greenhouses of the Botanical Garden, built at the beginning of the 20th century. Over the years, it has been expanded and adapted several times to support the development of plant collections, until it reached its current size and height of 24 metres in 1972.

During the renovation, the Palm House underwent major restoration. The building’s structural framework and glazing structures were fully renewed, and modern heating, misting, lighting, and air exchange systems were installed, all controlled by an automated climate system. This provides improved conditions for both plants and visitors, while also making the building more energy-efficient and sustainable.

The Palm House hosts most of the Botanical Garden’s subtropical plant collection – more than 200 taxa, including 25 species and varieties of palms. Here, visitors can encounter plants from subtropical regions across the world, including rare and endangered species.

In spring, the Palm House comes alive with blooms of the regal bird of paradise (Strelitzia reginae), the giant white bird of paradise (Strelitzia nicolai), Brunfelsia, and many other tropical wonders.

The Palm House is open daily: in March from 10:00 to 18:00, in April from 10:00 to 19:00, and from May to September from 10:00 to 20:00.
