Poznań Palm House is located in the Wilson Park. Its first building was erected in 1911; in 1929, for the National Exhibition, another building was added (the second Palmhouse), according to the project by S. Cybichowski. During the war, the Palmhouse was seriously damaged, which is why it had to be completely rebuilt between 1982 and 1992. The Palm House has amassed huge collections of plants, thus becoming one of the biggest institutions of this kind in Europe. It has 17 thousand plants of 700 species and subspecies from the Mediterranean, subtropical, tropical, savannah and desert climates. There is also an extensive collection of exotic fish here.
