Public Garden
Beautiful public garden & green space in the heart of the city
The public garden in the city of Bordeaux houses an arboretum, a library and a Natural History Museum.
Created in 1746, the public garden is a green area of 10.8 hectares located in the centre of the city. Designed by the landscape architect Ange-Jacques Gabriel, it is the first garden in France creation specifically for opening to the public. His work was seen to be very 'French' and likened to the work of Le Nôtre, the illustrious gardener of Versailles.
