The garden of Montorgueil: (re)birth of a historical and natural heritage

Two years of work will have been necessary to revive this historical and natural heritage, a former arboretum under Louis XVI, and to create a place focused on “naturalist discoveries” around a barefoot course on the theme of mulching which crosses different spaces:

• A watercourse and its phytopurification zone,
• Areas cultivated with local species in organic farming and permaculture,
• Facilities and refuges to develop animal biodiversity,
• Woods with historical trees to explain their environmental impact,
• A green theater with cultural and artistic programming.
