Endangered Plants of Austria: A Photo Exhibition Revealing Conservation Efforts at Botanical Garden Vienna

An outdoor photo exhibition along the main avenue of the Botanical Garden, presenting endangered plant species of Austria and conservation measures. The exhibition features 17 large-format photographs supplemented by over 30 profiles of the plants displayed within the garden.

This outdoor exhibition, presented along the main avenue of the Botanical Garden of the University of Vienna, focuses on the endangered plant species of Austria and the crucial conservation measures being undertaken. Featuring 17 striking large-format photographs, it introduces visitors to these vulnerable species. Complementing the visual display, over 30 detailed profiles of the plants featured in the exhibition are integrated within the garden itself, allowing visitors to connect the photographic representations with the living specimens. The exhibition is part of a broader collaborative project involving five botanical gardens across Austria, aiming to implement extensive and sustainable protection and conservation initiatives for endangered native plant species. This initiative, supported by the Federal Ministry for Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management, involves seed collection, cultivation of young plants, and reintroduction into natural habitats, alongside important landscape management. The project aligns with the FotoWien2025 photography festival, showcasing the biodiversity and conservation challenges of Austria's flora.
