Hidden within the garden of St. Augustin Abbey lies a restored greenhouse, once the outdoor laboratory of Gregor Mendel, who spent eight years conducting experiments on pea plants to study their hereditary traits. Destroyed in the 1870s, the reinvented Mendel’s greenhouse stands as a genetics pavilion on its original premises in the city of Brno.
