Collaboration with other organisations

The Linnaean Gardens collaborate with a range of other associations and organisations. We are members of a range of networks for gardens, museums and Linnaean heritage organisations. In the organisation of special events, we work together with many different groups.

Uppsala Municipality contributes to the running costs of the Linnaean Gardens. The aim of the collaboration between the University and the Municipality is to preserve the heritage of Linnaeus and Thunberg, and at the same time develop the Linnaean Gardens of Uppsala into attractive and well-visited environments. The gardens should be perceived as the outdoor living rooms of Uppsala’s residents, as well as natural destinatiuons for tourists and other visitors.

Linnaeus’ Hammarby, The Linnaeus Garden and the Botanical Garden are owned by the Swedish State and managed by the National Property Board (Statens Fastighetsverk, SFV). They are responsible for maintaining the buildings and architectural components, while Uppsala University is responsible for the activities in the gardens and buildings.
