**There are over 100 Botanic Gardens ( _Orto Botanico_) in Italy including the  world's first university botanical garden created in 1545 and some of the other oldest botanic gardens in Europe.**

A few are highlighted below.

## Garden of Simples

> Otherwise known as herb gardens, specialised medicinal gardens have been created at least since the Middle Ages, especially in monastery courtyards. During the European Renaissance, with the advance of medical and botanical sciences, monastic herb gardens developed into botanic gardens. Thus, the original function of these gardens was to display plants for medicinal use. The section where herbs were grown became the “Garden of Simples”, a 'simple' being an herb used on its own in medical treatment.

The Botanical garden of Padua (The Garden of Simples) with the Il Santo Basilica in the background

Listed as [a UNESCO World Heritage site](http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/824) _(see video below)_ because of its claim to be **the oldest academic botanical garden - associated with a university - in the world**.

Founded in 1545 for the cultivation of medicinal plants (simple herbs) and in continuous use for ever since. However, it has relocated twice. It has only occupied its current, and now-permanent, location since 1591.

**Also known as Garden of the Simples _(Orto dei Semplici)._** A circular wall was built to enclose the garden and protect the theft of the plants.  I [ts original layout is preserved](http://www.ortobotanicopd.it/en/larchitettura) – a circular central plot, symbolising the world, surrounded by a ring of water.  Its herbarium is the second most extensive in Italy. Its Library contains more than 50,000 volumes and manuscripts of historical and bibliographic importance. Its plant collections includes one devoted to medicinal and poisonous plants. The oldest plant is a palm planted in 1585 called the "Goethe palm" - which has its own greenhouse.

- also known as the **Giardino dei Semplici**, the "Garden of Simples

​Founded in 1st December 1545, the garden is **the third oldest botanical garden in Europe** and covers more than two hectares (and was the thirld largest in the world in ancient times). The hot and cold greenhouses containing tropical and subtropical plants were built in the 19th century and are the largest in Italy (162metres in length).

​Initially it was a _Garden of Simples_ with a prime interest in medicinal plants. It then became more focused on experimental agriculture. The garden today contains some 9,000 plant specimens. They are planted within a roughly square site surrounded by walls, crossed by a grid of walkways, and with a central fountain. It is now a section of the Museum of Natural History of the University of Florence. In 2004 the Garden was named CESFL (Center for the conservation ex situ of flora) by the Region of Tuscany
