Botanical Darwin - Hivernacle Exhibitions, Science and innovation
03/03/2026 - 05/31/2026

"Darwin Botanic" invites visitors to rediscover the figure of Charles Darwin from a lesser-known perspective: his relationship with the plant world. Far from focusing solely on animals, the scientist used plants as a key tool to demonstrate the theory of evolution. The exhibition offers an immersive journey featuring living plants, illustrations and sensory resources that recreate his experiments and discoveries. Orchids, carnivorous plants and climbing species take centre stage in a fascinating narrative about adaptation, survival and biodiversity, bringing us closer to a more personal and relatable Darwin.
