Un jardin philosophe

50 rue Mgr Médard Barth, 67530 Bœrsch
  • Bas-Rhin

A philosopher’s garden is visited with the five senses, and in a good way

After the reception, we take a first break near the voluptuous rosebush «Brigitte Bardot», backed by the muscat trellis marking the crossroads. From there, which way to go?

After the reception, we take a first break near the voluptuous rosebush «Brigitte Bardot», backed by the muscat trellis marking the crossroads. From there, which way to go?

From the right comes a charming echo that invites you to cross the great bridge. One can, of course, without further ado, go and sit in the clearing of the nymphaeum of the White Lady to listen to the dialogue of the musicians with the birds, or that of the actor with his very last flower; but to continue from there and to engage by this side in the moat would be a counter-meaning.
The logical and reasoned visit at the same time as sensual garden begins to the left by the discovery of the vegetable garden, enclosures initiating the spirit of the place, and continues in the orchard, where among the fruit trees are trendy curiosities and beautiful people surrounded by flowers or basketry, who deliver the secrets of their know-how. It is from there that one descends into the moat, whose long and green flow between high wall and sparkling stream leads to the bamboo grove that frames the small bridge, through which one reaches the clearing where, not far from the White Lady, Artists are produced to refine our understanding of the world...

About the location

Un jardin philosophe
50 rue Mgr Médard Barth, 67530 Bœrsch
  • Bas-Rhin
  • Grand Est
Located 35 km from Strasbourg, at the edge of the medieval enclosure of the small town of Boersch and at the foot of Mont Sainte-Odile, this private garden of one hectare, labeled Remarkable Garden, is part of a rich historical and landscaped context. It was built in the 19th century as a pleasure garden and became the cradle of the Spindler family of artists. Its current owners, Catherine and Erwin Kern, are working to restore it by highlighting its shady enclosures, its bright orchard, its cascading stream, and to make it evolve around small shimmering follies, of a white lady... They conceive of his visit as an initiation to the spirit of the place, to the art and philosophy of the gardens, but also as an encounter: a walk enriched by moments of reading and exchanges. During national events (Fête de la Nature, Rendez-vous aux jardins, European Heritage Days), scenography, exhibitions and musical programs are provided by artists and volunteer members of the association La Terre est b
