Located in the heart of the islet, at the back of the Juvénal-des-Ursins hotel, this garden offers a Renaissance setting by its cross plan and the design of its ornamental parterre. It respects the intimate side of the facade and voluntarily presents a domestic character through the vegetable garden. Access by the alley of Chats.
