The garden of
Catherine de Medicis

Introduction

The paths offer magnificent views of the west façade of the Château. Its design is based on five panels of lawn, grouped around an elegant circular basin and punctuated with globes of boxwood.

To the East, the garden is bordered by a walkway overlooking the moat, where Clair-Matin roses grow in trellises.

Tall rose bushes and lavender cut into low, rounded cordons, mark out harmonious patterns. The perspective opening to the North over the Green Garden and the Orangerie was designed by Bernard Palissy.
