Teaching and test garden

Braike

The garden is located directly on the Campus Braike behind the university building. The garden has been in existence since 1985 and is supplemented by new plantings to this day. Due to its proximity to the cafeteria and the many seating possibilities, the garden is often used by students during breaks to relax. There are also some courses in vegetation planning and plant knowledge. Various locations for plants have been created on the grounds by earth modelling and differentiated soil conditions. There is also a pond with a variety of water plants.
