So, a new green lung needed to be created over a larger space.<\/p>\n<p>The new Botanical Garden, considerably larger at 21.20 hectares, was laid out in Nymphenburg on May 10th, 1914.<\/p>\n<p>The garden consists of a central section in neo-baroque style as well as an Alpinum with a pond in front and a large arboretum. An a mazing faxct is that a small structure in the center of the garden, has served as a caf\u00e9 since 1936.<\/p>\n<p>Afterwards, between 1908 and 1913, the institute building was built. It had a cost of around 5 million marks.\u00a0 Impresivele enough, it survived World War II.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the turmoil of war, the staff remained steadfast in their commitment to protecting and preserving the garden&#8217;s valuable assets. As air raids became more frequent, protective measures were put in place to safeguard the garden&#8217;s greenhouses and collections from damage. Underground shelters were constructed to provide refuge for staff and visitors during bombing raids, ensuring their safety amidst the chaos of war.<\/p>\n<p>The garden&#8217;s infrastructure suffered damage from bombing raids, and many plants were lost due to shortages of water, fuel, and other essential resources.<\/p>\n<p>The Botanical Garden remained as a beacon of hope and resilience in a city torn apart by conflict. Despite the hardships of war, the garden continued to serve as a place of solace and inspiration for the people of Munich, offering a glimpse of beauty and tranquility amidst the chaos and destruction of war.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20413\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20413\" style=\"width: 965px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-solkes_horizontal wp-image-20413\" src=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/botanicalgarden-2405_01-965x601.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"965\" height=\"601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/botanicalgarden-2405_01-965x601.jpg 965w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/botanicalgarden-2405_01-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/botanicalgarden-2405_01-768x478.jpg 768w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/botanicalgarden-2405_01-320x199.jpg 320w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/botanicalgarden-2405_01.jpg 996w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 965px) 100vw, 965px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20413\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Solkes \u00a9 Solkes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>To this day, the institute building houses collections of dried plants \u2013 the herbaria \u2013 of the Bavarian State and the Ludwig Maximilian University.

A humid jungle environment teeming with tropical plants.

Aloes can also be seen here in great variety. Some tower up like trees, others remain stemless and form basal rosettes. On the west side, botanical treasures are displayed behind glass, such as the primitive Welwitschia mirabilis, the \u201cLiving Stones\u201d (Lithops and other genera) and rare Aloe species.<\/p>\n<p>Entering the last side house on the south side, one changes continents into the <span style=\"color: #138a8d;\"><a style=\"color: #138a8d;\" href=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/the-shutter\/2021\/10\/the-versatility-of-a-photographer-charo-amador\/\">Mexico<\/a> House<\/span> (House 6).

This house was donated in 1958 by the Society of Friends of the Botanical Garden e.V. for the succulent plants.<\/p>\n<p>Stepping into the tree fern house (house 10) is like stepping into a magical forest.

A small stream brings additional life to the warm and humid tropical world.<\/p>\n<p>House 9 is the Cyad House. This is<span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"> the greenhouse complex that has been least altered in its construction since the showhouses were built.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>An interesting fact is that Cycads are also called living fossils.
