Botanical Garden of Dnipropetrovsk National University

The Botanical Garden of Dnipropetrovsk National University is one of the favorite places of rest among residents and students. In total, several thousand species of plants grow in the garden, including those that do not grow in the local steppe area. Recently, the territory of the Botanical Garden was merged with the former Gagarin Park and now its territory stretches along Gagarin Avenue to Kazakov Street.

The Botanical Garden was founded by Professor Reinhard in 1931, when the first trees were planted. Over time, the garden grew and replenished with new species of plants.

In August 1963, the garden was declared a protected area, which in 1996 was confirmed by a signed decree of the President of Ukraine. The botanical garden has always been very popular with tourists and citizens, but for several years it has been closed to visitors. At the garden there is an exhibition center, where those who wish can see and purchase a variety of flowers and plants.
