Linnéträdgården
One of Uppsala's most famous sons, Carl von Linné, also known as Linnaeus, was a professor of botany at Uppsala University during the 1740s. He is best known for creating the Latin nomenclature system for plants and animals. The botanical treasures of the garden Linnaeus developed for the university have been re-created and are now on view at Linnéträdgården. Also on the grounds and included in admission is Linnémuseet, the house where Linnaeus lived with his family for 35 years.
