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.

Museums in Uppsala (UMI)

Linnaeus's Uppsala

Swedish Gardens

BGCI, Botanical Garden Conservation International

The Botanical Garden, The Linnaeus Garden and Linnaeus’ Hammarby form The Linnaean Gardens of Uppsala as a subdepartment of  the Music and Museums division of Uppsala University. It is managed by the University with a financial contribution from Uppsala Municipality.

The Linnaean Gardens of Uppsala have an advisory steering group with representatives from Uppsala University and Uppsala Municipality.

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.
