The Jean-Jacques Rousseau herbarium
Come and discover the story of this unique piece, a testament to Rousseau's passion for nature and plants.
In 2024, we acquired at auction one of the rare herbaria created by the philosopher and writer Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778).
This visit will be dedicated to the history of this priceless piece, displayed in our library as part of the exhibition "Nature never deceives us": The Jean-Jacques Rousseau herbarium at the Geneva Botanic Garden.
