Chelsea Physic Garden was founded in 1673, as the Apothecaries’ Garden, with the purpose of training apprentices in the identification and use of medicinal plants.

Chelsea Physic Garden provides the perfect backdrop for a variety of special events. The Garden and its indoor spaces are suited to a wide variety of events, from large birthday celebrations, wedding parties and corporate events, to more intimate functions such as business meetings and small dinner parties. The entire site is available to hire exclusively, and areas can also be booked separately.
