Palm House on Postcard

"Tropical Plants The impressive Palmhuset greenhouse in the middle of Trädgårdsföreningen park hosts a large number of tropical plants and butterflies. It was built in 1878 with the famous Crystal Palace in London as its inspiration. It's named after the middle area of the building, where palm trees (the tallest one is 14 meters!) and ferns grow."

Lovely greenhouse showcasing plants and trees from all over the world! There are multiple rooms to explore and various places to sit and rest. It is definitely fairly warm inside, so be prepared to take off any heavy clothing after entering.

I've been to a few greenhouses in Europe and this one didn't stand out. I wouldn't visit it as a tourist, only if you have a lot of time and need to fill it. It's quite small, all explanations are only in Swedish and due to the construction 2/5 of the rooms were not accessible. On the other hand, the need for renovation is obvious, many metal parts are rusty and the paint is peeling. It's not as humid and hot as usual. I liked the terrace with seating. You're allowed to sit and eat here (self brought food and beverages). Entry is for free.

The Palm House is located inside the Trädgårdsföreningen and has free entrance. It's currently under renovation but still worth a visit. There are usually many painters in the area, adding to its charm. The Palm House features even Middle Eastern plants and Dagliagården. The balcony has seating where you can relax and enjoy the warmth during the last days of summer. The garden is also a great escape from the hectic rush of trams in the city. You can feel the change in weather as you enter the Palm House.

Very nice public garden with no entrance fee. It is very convenient with many seating areas even within the glass house. There was even free wifi inside. There are many plant types that you can see and you can relax in the exterior gardens as well while contemplating the beautiful plants.

The beautiful palm house is free to visit and an absolute gem of Gothenburg. There is a beautiful balcony with tables and chairs which is ideal for a picnic. There are some brilliant plants on display - including a cocoa plant! Great for its educational value as well as being a stunning spot to pass some time.

Old structure from the 1800's and so quaint, the plants are amazing.

Nice tropical house with many plants. It seemed to be undergoing some refurbishment. There were also preparations being made nearby for a concert, so some access was limited. It was nice to have wrought iron seating and tables around.
