Evidence of the hard work of the proud, hardworking gardeners of Descartes. The Jardin Public René Boylesve covers around 15,000 m² and includes a medieval garden and a rose garden laid out in the former château's moat. The park is maintained with 10,000 annual plants alongside a varied collection of trees, including sequoia, ginkgo and persimmon planted in the 19th century.
After a difficult summer,the gardeners who keep Descartes looking its best should be applauded.
“In Touraine, even the silence tells a story.”
