Paradeisos – Jardins européens offers a journey through time around the cottage, outbuildings, terraces, gardens and park with trees, from the time of Silvia and Jean Monnet.

Jean Monnet (1888-1979) is one of the founding fathers of Europe. Coming from a family of cognac merchants, he began his career in the family business. Appointed head of the coordination of Allied resources during the Great War, he became, in 1919, the number two of the League of Nations. In the aftermath of the Second World War, he set up the first planning commissariat to equip and modernize France. Great peacemaker, Jean Monnet then develops the idea of a rapprochement with Germany and a union of European countries. It was in his house that in April 1950 he conceived the project of the European Coal and Steel Community. He died in Bazoches in March 1979\. His ashes were deposited in the Pantheon in 1988\. It was in the house of Bazoches-sur-Guyonne, acquired in 1945, that he wrote alongside Robert Schuman the founding text of the current European Community.
