Sweden - The Rise of Systematic Biology

"The Rise of Systematic Biology" is a tentative serial nomination of thirteen sites in eight countries, suggested by Sweden, representing the foundation of the science of systematic biology. The sites together form the arena where the science developed strongly due to the Swedish scientist Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778) and his international scientific network. The Swedish sites are Linnés Råshult; Linnéträdgården and Linnémuseet; Herbationes Upsalienses - Hågadalen-Nåsten Nature Reserve; Herbationes Upsalienses, Fäbodmossen Nature Reserve; Herbationes Upsalienses, Årike Fyris; Linnés Hammarby. The authenticity in the sites is to a large extent present in remnant organism populations once used to develop the science." Source: UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List

The Linne Garden is the oldest botanic garden of the University of Uppsala, Sweden. Thanks to Marie of France who visited here.
