Designed by landscape architect Choulot
The English-style park bears witness to the wild, poetic vision of nature that was in vogue in the 19th century, when the famous landscape gardener Choulot designed the 30 hectares of parkland. Today, the park can be explored by the whole family in the shade of the tall trees. This green setting is an extension of the visit, after the discovery of the flats and gardens.
