History
Ботанический сад (Тверь) был заложен в далеком 1879, an honorary citizen of the city merchant of the first guild Ilya Ivanovich Bobrov. He planned to arrange a green private estate on the bank of the river Tvertsy. The merchant personally planted oaks and larch, which still rustle the leaves and decorate the arboretum. There were laid elegant wooden galleries, a gazebo-rotunda was built, an arched bridge was built.
In 1898 the owner of the site became a teachernatural sciences and botany Leonid Antonovich Kolakovsky. He collected a rich collection of trees, bushes and flowers, forming planting plants on a geographical basis. With the efforts of Kolakovsky, the estate turned into a small botanical garden. Leonid Antonovich took a small pilot site, where he conducted practical classes for students. In 1930, according to the will of the owner, the Botanical Garden (Tver) became the property of the city.
Since then, famous botanists AA Lebedev and MLNevsky have been engaged in the garden. They greatly expanded the collection of the arboretum, laid new expositions, built a greenhouse.
