Jardin des Cordeliers

The layout of the Jardin des Cordeliers can be explored through paths bordered with box trees separating four squares dedicated to relations between humans and plants: the garden of uses evokes the companionship between plants, humans and gods, the mediterranean garden telling us about the meticulous domestication of plants, including a wild rose garden and a collection of lavender, the artist Jean Daviot dedicates a garden of words… to Maria Borrély, a writer who gave her name to the middle school enclosing the garden. The garden also has a rose named Alexandra David-Néel reminding us that plants travel as well…
This place awaits you for reading, lunch or just for a stroll.
