Garden with the Frenchwoman
 
 

Lion Claire de Virieu

In front of the sumptuous Renaissance frontage of the castle a garden with the Frenchwoman created at the beginning extends of the 20th century by the famous landscape designer Achille Duchêne.


Rigorously cut boxwood and yews frame vast lawns, in the shade of trees centenaries like the very beautiful sequoia and the cedar which accomodate the visitors not far from the drawbridge.
In the ditches, lions hones some coming from Italy take care on the serenity of this garden.
