Discovery-walk of a park that benefited from successive developments in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, developments that remained intact. The visit also describes on the architectural plan an imposing portal of the fourteenth century, a small manor house and an old dovecote. Finally, it is an opportunity to evoke illustrious former owners like the Guyot-de-Saint-Michel or Grouchy families.

About the location

Parc du Nymphée

1 rue du Verger Pinaud Villegusien-le-Lac, 52190 Saint-Michel

Haute-Marne
Grand Est

A large 14th century gate, flanked by two towers, gives access to a park composed of two parts. Designed in the 18th century, the first forms a symmetrical arrangement that opens onto a large esplanade bordered by a bower followed by a round basin, a canal and a nymphaea. The second, created in the 19th century, is a picturesque garden whose route circumscribes the property by offering views of the dwelling house and several unexpected developments.
