Garden Society of Gothenburg
Trädgårdsföreningen
A 19th-century city garden by the canal, with a Victorian glass palm house and about 2,000 rose varieties.
Established in 1842, the Garden Society of Gothenburg is one of Europe's best-preserved 19th-century parks. The palm house, completed in 1878 and inspired by London's Crystal Palace, houses tropical plants and camellias. The rose garden has a collection of about 2,000 varieties that bloom in early summer. The park has a café and a children's play area, and admission is free. Located between Central Station and Kungsportsplatsen, it is within easy walking distance of both.
