Carriere Freres – Natural History Museum Collection
By working with the national Museum of natural History, Carriere Freres has chosen to reconnect with botany’s historical wealth and centuries of enlightened research. This establishment is the metamorphosis of an older “utopian garden”, the Royal Garden of Medicinal Plants, which already provided knowledge to the scientists who administered it, and which had been created in the 17th century on the land of Alez where, in the 16th century, the philanthropic apothecary Nicolas Houël gave courses in herbalism. On this site, the tradition of teaching natural history therefore dates back almost five centuries.
