The Botanical Garden in Hoyvík

Discover The Botanical Garden in Hoyvík, home to a unique collection of Faroese plants, open year-round with free admission.

Since the renowned Swedish naturalist Carl von Linné (1707–1778) developed the scientific naming system for species and personally named a variety of animals and plants, gardens featuring named plants have been established around the world.

The purpose of displaying plants to the public and schools has remained consistent: to showcase the life-giving diversity of plants. Additionally, in recent years, a second objective has gained importance: preserving the diverse heritage of nature in protected garden environments, as many species are increasingly disappearing from their natural habitats.

The botanical garden is open year-round, and admission is free.
