Arboretum Marcel Kroenlein

Lying on the sunny slopes near the village of Roure, overlooking the Tinée valley, the Marcel Kroenlein Arboretum is an exceptional heritage site. Initiated in 1987 by the great botanist to whom it owes its name, the project has been widely supported by numerous contemporary artists, creating a decisive link between art and nature.
