Rendez-vous at the gardens

A must for all nature lovers!

Every first weekend in June, for nineteen years, the Ministry of Culture has been giving “rendez-vous aux jardins” to all French people. The heritage that makes us proud, that makes our culture rich, is not only built heritage; it is also parks, gardens and natural sites that define our country.

50 shades of colours and scents!

During your stay in Touraine, make sure you don’t miss this event aimed at showcasing our gardens. You’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to the gardens, conservatory vegetable gardens and other botanical wonders on display.

A new theme is chosen every year to showcase our gardens and green spaces.

«Every garden is, first of all, how we learn about the weather, the rain, the wind, the sun and the passing of time, the cycle of the seasons. » Erik Orsenna

Our region offers you the opportunity to tap into your natural side with the Gardens of Valmer, the National Tomato Conservatory at Château de la Bourdaisière and the Renaissance garden of Château de Jallanges. A weekend bursting with colour!
