Jardin du Château des Arcis

Completely restored and replanted in 2009, the gardens at Les Arcis date back to the end of the Renaissance, just like the château behind which they hide.

Come and stroll through the gardens, the setting for the château, the orangery and other buildings built over the centuries. You'll discover the Renaissance gardens, stroll through the bouquetier garden with its boxwood embroidery and flower beds on the theme of the four seasons, stroll along shady paths, along small canals, and on the banks of the pond, you'll discover the rose garden and the labyrinth island... A poetic, open-air setting, ideal for a return to timeless nature...
In this park with a thousand facets, a riddle trail ("Escape Garden") is available for young and old alike, ideal for families: Robin Hood is back! Will you be able to answer the riddles and free Lord Charles, prisoner of the Horrible Pierre le Cornu who is plundering the Mayenne region with his bandits? Discover Robin and his companions in the park, who will help you ... Three levels of riddles for everyone to enjoy: adults, children and toddlers.
