BOTANICAL INSTITUTE
Go there and contact
With its four million samples of rare plants kept on six floors, this herbarium is unique in France. Now a property of the University of Montpellier II, the collection began with Charles Flahaut in 1889 and then enriched. The oldest pieces may be those of the Chirac collection, the 17th century, or the famous Delile herbarium brought back to Egypt's campaign in 1798… But it's true that this place, ill-suited to visit, receives very few visitors. All the more as for the past few years, for fire safety reasons, only the small patio is accessible to public.
