IHAR Botanical Garden in Bydgoszcz

The IHAR Botanical Garden in Bydgoszcz is a garden covering approx. 5.5 ha belonging to the National Centre for Plant Genetic Resources, a unit of the Plant Breeding and Acclimatisation Institute (IHAR). IHAR has operated in Bydgoszcz since 1951, taking over the pre-war Municipal Botanical Garden; the current location was made available to the public in June 1977.
