jardin public

One of the nicest view in Brittany, see the castle and the old medieval city below from the botanical gardens located besides a centuries old church.

Arriving in Fougeres, there is free car parking by the castle and it's easy to join the circular town walk which will take you through the old town and up to the public gardens. The gardens are situated in the high part of town and the view of the castle, old town and surrounding countryside is amazing. It is quite a steep walk up through the winding paths of the gardens but there are benches along the way and the view makes the effort worthwhile. Alternatively, you could park in the high part of town and simply walk round the church to the gardens and views. It would be less strenuous but even if you did it this way, make sure you get down to the castle and the characterful old town streets as well.

The gardens occupy a site overlooking the lovely town of Fougeres--fabulous views! Garden lovers will appreciate the colorful and imaginative plantings, and many of the larger trees are identified by their common name in French, plus botanical name. The entire garden is well maintained and a pleasure to stroll around, but the views of the historic town and beyond are the main attraction. As mentioned by another reviewer, there are some steep paths here, but I think wheelchair users could manage the paths by the ramparts which afford the best views.The backdrop at the top of the hill is one side of the Eglise de St. Leonard, so you can easily visit both places.

A lovely garden for strolling or taking photos. The flowers were beautiful and it was a great vantage point to see the surrounds of the city.

Lots of teenagers hanging out in the park, doing tight-rope walking, signing, miming... think there must have been something on... and the views are really lovely, especially of the Chateau.

Beautiful gardens but not really suitable for wheelchair users or pushchairs as there are some steep paths and steps. Lovely views from the top gardens. Well worth a visit.

These beautiful gardens offer great views of Fougères and the countryside and are an excellent place to read a book or to sit on a bench and relax when the sun is shining.

Отличный парк со смотровой площадкой. Парк расположен между Eglise Saint Leonard и крепостью. Со смотровой площадки открывается вид на весь старый город.

Localizado ao lado da igreja de São Leonardo, é mais um belo jardim, muito florido e encantador. Aliás, Fougeres é mesmo encantadora. Que bela surpresa.

Mis à part la vue magnifique qui surplombe le château medieval ce jardin n'a rien d'exceptionnel !!! Pas assez de fleurs,jeux pour les enfants nuls!!manque quelques animaux par exemple...jardin propre dans l'ensemble.

Prenez du temps pour vous promener dans ce jardin public très fleuri et profitez de la superbe vue sur la ville médiévale et le chateau, très belle découverte! Bancs pour pique niquer.

Après la visite de l'église St Léonard poursuivez votre visite par le très beau jardin public attenant, très bien entretenu, d'où vous aurez un très beau point de vue sur la ville et sur la Butte à Bigot. Fougères est une ville très fleurie.

En la oficina de turismo te dan un mapa con un recorrido a realizar por el pueblo. Este empieza en la oficina de turismo que está en la parte alta del pueblo. Bajas por estos jardines, muy cuidados hacia el castillo. Nosotros la ruta la empezamos abajo y da igual el orden.

Merece la pena bajar hacia el castillo recorriendo los maravillosos y cuidado jardines y disfrutando de las vistas del castillo y del barrio que lo rodea. Un momento de disfrute para a vista a cada paso.
