The Bergian Garden

University botanical garden with Nordic and tropical plants

Address Frescati

The Bergianska trädgården (Bergian Garden) is Stockholm's botanical garden, run by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and located on the university campus at Frescati. The outdoor collection includes a Japanese garden, a kitchen garden, and beds devoted to Nordic wildflowers. Two greenhouses — Edvard Anderson's for Mediterranean and tropical plants, and Victoria House for water lilies — are worth stepping into even on a warm day. The garden is free to enter; the greenhouses charge a small admission. It is a quiet spot, well off the usual tourist route, and pairs well with a visit to the neighbouring Natural History Museum.
