Romantic garden
A wrought-iron bridge spans the old moat. “New Dawn” and “Pink Cloud” roses are interlaced through the rail. The bridge has replaced a drawbridge that was destroyed during the Revolution, along with the château. One of the banks is lined with peonies, cotinus, viburnums, heucheras and Alchemilla Mollis. |
This was the work of Prefect Jean Charles de LADOUCETTE around 1840. We still have half the moat of the old château, three two-hundred-year-old Sequoia Gigantea, a cedar of Lebanon, a lovely view over the ornamental lake and the waterfalls which are attributed to Louis Sulpice Varé. Hydrangeas, rhododendrons and trees with pretty trunks look enchanting around the gazebo !
