Krohn Conservatory in Eden Park is itself architecturally significant, having been built in 1933 at the height of the charming Art Deco era. But it’s what inside those aluminum and glass walls that make Krohn Conservatory truly special.
You’d have to travel a good distance from Cincinnati to visit a rainforest and a desert – or come to Krohn Conservatory, Cincinnati Parks’ nationally recognized showcase of more than 3,500 plant species from around the world.
Our “world” changes throughout the year with special exhibits and programs, including the ever-popular springtime “Butterfly Show,” where thousands of butterflies are let loose in a specially-themed garden. But you can always visit the rainforest waterfall and exotic plants on permanent display in the Palm, Tropical, Desert and Orchid houses.

Summer brings a BRAND NEW show to Krohn. Surround yourself with a floral rainbow, and learn about color. Also, for the first time ever, Cincinnati welcomes the interactive art installation PRISMATICA. 🌈
Giant pivoting prisms will transform Krohn into an interactive kaleidoscope, transmitting every color. As visitors wander and manipulate the prisms, they will enjoy an infinite interplay of lights and colorful reflections. Enjoy the new show from July 2nd-October 16th.
Enjoy a weekly story time in Krohn's showroom every Wednesday beginning at 11am.
