Terraced architecture and classical layout. Flowerbeds and groves of lime trees, boxwood and hornbeam, terracotta statues and Anduze vases, wrought-iron gates and fire pots with original decorations, punctuate the staging of the gardens. Stroll around and take time to dream… Let yourself be immersed in the gentleness of the setting, just a stone’s throw from Mozac Abbey.
In 2010, complete replanting of a 75 m-long avenue of hornbeam : 30 branching hornbeams 8 m high and 320 clumped hornbeams to create benches. In 2016, the restored statue of the site’s 1781 owner, “Gabriel Mercier”, was inaugurated in the grove. With the support of the Fondation des Parcs et Jardins de France and the DRAC Auvergne.
