GARDEN TOURS OTHER SITES Discover Gibraltar includes interactive map and Wildlife Park Gibraltar, Nature's Mountain: Welcome to the Gibraltar Botanic Gardens The Alameda Gardens were founded in 1816 at the initiative of the Governor, General George Don in order to provide an area for recreation for the residents of Gibraltar. For many years they served this purpose but in the 1970s they fell into a state of disrepair. The Gibraltar Botanic Gardens project began in June 1991 when the Government of Gibraltar contracted a firm of environmental managers, Wildlife (Gibraltar), to restore the gardens and convert them into a botanic garden. The Gardens therefore aim to: restore the aesthetic beauty and interest of the Alameda for the benefit of visitors to the gardens establish a living collection representative of Gibraltar and its hinterland; display a collection of plants from Mediterranean climatic zones around the world; contribute towards the conservation of the flora of Gibraltar and its hinterland; establish a collection of succulents from around the world; contribute towards the dissemination of information about plants, their economic value and their conservation by means of an active educational programme.

Jump to the content Return to initial page brief history architecture ... environments Created in 1545 on the property of the Benedictine monks of St. Justine, the Botanical Garden of Padova is the oldest existing university botanical garden in the world. The Senate of the Venetian Republic approved its foundation for the cultivation of medicinal plants, which then constituted the largest portion of the so-called "simple" herbs, i.e., medicaments of natural origin. This is why early botanical gardens were called Horti simplicium ("Gardens of Simples"). The identification of plants used for medicinal purposes by renowned botanists of ancient times was uncertain, and frequently led to mistakes and even frauds, which caused great damage to people's health. The institution of a Horto medicinale , prompted by Francesco Bonafede, who held the chair of "Lecturer of Simples", enabled students to identify true medicinal plants, and the first "custodian" of the Garden, Luigi Squalermo, called Anguillara, introduced and cultivated a large number of species (1800). In spite of severe punishments (fines, imprisonment, exile) for whoever damaged it, the Garden was often the target of thieves, who stole many of the rare plants it contained, due to the high prices that could be obtained for them.
