Informations supplémentaires

The statue of the famous botanist Carolus Clusius (1526–1609) at the entrance of Hortus Botanicus, the botanical garden of Leyden University, South Holland, The Netherlands. In 1587 the young University of Leiden requested the burgomasters of Leiden permission to establish a hortus academicus behind the Academy building, for the benefit of the medicine students. Permission was granted in 1590, and as prefect was appointed Clusius arrived in Leiden in 1593. Clusius' knowledge, reputation and international contacts allowed him to set up a very extensive plant collection. Clusius also urged the Dutch East India Company (VOC) to collect plants and (dried) plant specimens. The original garden set up by Clusius was small (about 35 by 40 meters), but contained more than 1000 different plants.
