A real paradise for families…
The Potager des Princes presents the unique museum of the dwarf farmyard with hens from all continents, parakeets, a collection of pigeons and many other animals...
You can get up close to the animals that live in semi-liberty. At the bend in the path, greet the geese, listen to the peacocks singing and the joy of the children watching the rabbit race!
Throughout the year, the Théâtre de la Faisanderie, qualified by Jacques Weber as "the most beautiful romantic theater on a human scale", hosts concerts and plays in an enchanting setting, including the theater festival "La Scène au Jardin " in summer.
Animations are also organised during the school holidays :
- Punch show pour les vacances de Noël (salle chauffée)
- Spectacle « Peau d’âne » pour les vacances d’hiver (théâtre chauffé)
- Children's spring during the spring holidays,
- Rabbit race, the fun conference "The gardener talks to children". and the "Les fables du Potager" show during the summer holidays,
- The Halloween Forest with the witch hunt in the autumn holidays.
