Fondation des Artistes
The Fondation des Artistes park will be exceptionally open for the European Heritage Days. The Fondation des Artistes brings together around its 10-hectare park an atypical ensemble consisting of the Maison nationale des artistes (retirement home for elderly artists), the MABA (art centre), about thirty artists' studios and a heritage library, the Smith-Lesouëf library. The current park is the result of a long history, from the cultivation of the vine, through a garden "à la française" arranged in terraces and decorated with ponds, to the garden "in the English" of the nineteenth century, transformed at the beginning of the next century.
