À propos du lieu

Domaine national du Palais-Royal

8 rue Montpensier, 75001 Paris

Paris
Île-de-France

Public garden designed by Pierre Desgots and realized during the winter 1635-1636 with lateral alignments of chestnut trees, 6 flower beds of embroidery, and basins decorated with marble and bronze statues. It measures 350 m by 150 and is immediately open to the public. In 1661, the Royal Palace became the residence of the Orléans family, when Louis XIV donated it to his brother. From 1674, Le Nôtre began to transform the gardens. From 1817 to 1824, the central basin and parterres were created. The central basin is surrounded by lawns lined with flowery massifs redesigned by landscaper Mark Rudkin in 1992, when the Minister of Culture and Communication, Jack Lang, presents a project to rejuvenate the garden of the Palais-Royal. It preserves the 18th century structure composed of two large flowerbeds and tree alignments while wanting to restore a diversity and a floral and vegetal quality.
