Tropische Schmetterlinge

In the organizer's words:

During the winter months, the Botanical Garden traditionally offers the opportunity to experience tropical butterflies up close. They travel to Munich as pupae from specialized farms in Costa Rica and the Philippines. A few days later, they hatch in the warm and humid climate of the aquatic plant house - often right in front of the visitors' eyes. They then fly freely among the plants and visitors.

Only with time slot tickets

Due to the high number of visitors, access to the butterflies is only possible with a time slot ticket . It is also valid as a day ticket for the greenhouses from 9 am to 4 pm. The time slot is only valid for admission to the butterfly exhibition, all other areas of the greenhouses are freely accessible with the ticket.

Tip: It's best to come during the week. At the weekends, the mornings are the most relaxed!

Where can I get tickets?

A limited number of tickets are available daily at the main ticket office. If you want to plan your visit, you can secure a time slot in the online ticket store from December 1.
