LOCATION DETAILS

The New Orleans Botanical Garden is located in City Park in New Orleans. It was originally called The Rose Garden when it opened in 1936. It was part of a massive restructuring and development project in New Orleans in the 1930’s. The construction was overseen by three innovators: Architect Richard Koch, Landscape Architect William Wierdorn, and Sculptor Enrique Alférez. Hurricane Katrina in 2005 caused nearly total destruction of the garden's collections. Fortunately a donation from the Azby Fund, allowed the Garden to keep its staff employed and renovate its buildings and gardens. Today the garden is made up of several different miniature gardens. Each garden room, or section of the garden, showcases unique species of flora, and pathways and structures. At the western edge of the section lies the Pavilion of the Two Sisters, a recent building designed in the fashion of a European greenhouse and constructed to protect oranges, honors the Wordsworth sisters. This space is used as a multipurpose facility for everything from educational seminars to wedding receptions.
