Pflanzengarten Bad Schandau
The Pflanzengarten Bad Schandau is a botanical garden located in the Saxon Switzerland National Park on the Kirnitzschtalstraße, Bad Schandau, Saxony, Germany. It is open daily in the warmer months.
The garden opened in 1902 as the Regionalbotanischer Garten Sachsens, with a goal of preserving local plants, including rare poisonous and medicinal plants. As of 2002, it contained nearly 1000 taxa from cool and moist climates around the world, but focuses on plants of the Saxon Switzerland area, including 323 species from the area, of which about 80 species were protected or on Saxony's Red List.
