BOTANICAL GARDEN OF THE FACULTY OF PHARMACY
Go there and contact
A botanical garden with a variety of rare, medicinal and toxic plants, a greenhouse and original species from the arboretum.
Created in 1969, at the same time as the new Faculty of Pharmacy, this exceptional site has been enjoying a new lease of life since 1994, thanks to major efforts to enhance the many varieties of plants and vegetation it contains. This two-hectare garden has been specially designed to illustrate the various courses taught at the Faculty of Pharmacy. You'll learn a great deal about medicinal and toxic plants, as well as about the forty or so original species in the arboretum. The large greenhouse protects a large number of tropical or subtropical plants with incongruous names (chemise-de-belle-mère, oiseau-de-paradis...) from Asia, America and Africa. An undergrowth area with a grove of birch trees shelters and protects rare plants in spectacular bloom, including belladonna and Martagon lily. As for the garden's twenty-two flowerbeds, they are organized in such a way as to form a "school of botany", enabling visitors to understand the uses that man can make of plants and vegetation in general. They represent no less than 2230m2 and hundreds of species! The rest of the garden is made up of hedges, meadows, orchid lawns, English-style landscaped areas and thousands of other plant species. A gardener-animator will guide you through this exceptional natural setting, and reveal all the secrets of these plants with their unsuspected virtues during guided tours!
