On the occasion of the Rendez-vous aux jardins 2024, visitors will be able to discover the entire industrial work of the Comte de Buffon. In addition to the forge, the former food garden will be open, with its 18th century orangery. The accommodation, called the «bread oven», will also be open and will allow you to imagine the daily life of the blacksmiths and their family in these places.
