Close to Paris, Courances is one of the most beautiful gardens in France and lives in a Louis XIII castle, classified as historical monuments. The park of Courances as the castle are in the image of the different eras and owners who shaped them. Thus harmoniously coexist a Renaissance water garden, a classic park «à la française» and a Japanese garden. The whole is fed by 14 springs and punctuated by 17 water features.
This park of surprising beauty, classic and romantic, historical and contemporary, has an intimate and grandiose atmosphere. The omnipresence of "running" waters, plants and stone in this 75-hectare landscape whose creation dates back to the 16th century is a unique spectacle. Play of nature and waters, perspectives and scales, spectacular reflections and secret sources, shades of green and colors, Courances reconciles the idea of rigor with that of freedom.
The guided tour of the park invites you to discover the richness and beauty of this garden, with a grandiose and intimate atmosphere, between lines and perspectives, reflections and colors.
