Hortus Botanicus Delft: plants indoors and outdoors

The TU Delft Hortus Botanicus offers an outdoor collection and glasshouses. A visit consists of looking at living plants in different settings and on different scales.

Plan your visit ↗

Details up close

Leaves, stems and growth forms can vary greatly. Use the information by the plants to understand names and origins, and take time for more than just the most striking specimens.

The glasshouse as a different climate

The tropical glasshouse is a separate part alongside the outdoor garden. Check access if it is your main reason for visiting; not every route or facility is entirely step-free.

Explanation on request

Guided tours are offered separately. A guided route can help you follow a theme in the collection, but must be arranged in advance and does not automatically fit into every museum day.

Before you go

Public opening is seasonal. Check exceptions on public holiday Mondays and discuss restrictions at the small bridges or the education room in advance.
