Old Hortus

Between the Grote Rozenstraat and the Grote Kruisstraat the old Hortus Botanicus Garden of the University of Groningen is located. The garden was designed as a herb garden by the pharmacist Henricus Munting at the beginning of the seventeenth century. The Hortus Botanicus garden was moved to the De Wolf Estate in Haren in 1966. The buildings around the garden are still being used by the University of Groningen.
