Did you know? In Val-de-Marne, there's a very special place that looks like Wonderland. In this not-so-secret garden, you can stroll among the rose bushes, their shimmering colors enchanting you. Welcome to the magnificent Roseraie du Val-de-Marne.
Roseraie du Val-de-Marne is an approved "Conservatory of specialized plant collections" and is listed on the supplementary inventory of historic monuments. It has also been awarded the " Jardin Remarquable" label. This magical place, created at the end of the 19th century, is located in the town of l'Haÿ-les-Roses. Covering 1.5 hectares, it boasts no fewer than 11,000 rosebushes and 2,600 different species.
There are 13 collections arranged around the decorative rose garden in the French garden style. From wild roses to cultivated roses, this magical garden boasts one of the largest collections of old roses in France, if not the world.
From the aisle of historic roses to the garden of foreign roses, via the aisle of the history of the rose, you'll be amazed by the diversity of species. After this wonderful discovery, don't miss a visit to the Parc de la Roseraie, a 14-hectare English-style park. Whether in the shade of a tree or in full sun, you can enjoy this verdant setting with your family, friends or partner.
After a lovely stroll among the roses, you can opt for a picnic in the park (your ticket to the rose garden gives you access all day until 7pm, so you're free to go out and come back afterwards) or take a seat in the café-restaurant adjoining the rose garden. With its lovely terrace overlooking the rose garden and, in particular, the beautiful decorative rose garden, it's the perfect place to enjoy lunch or a drink.
For practical information, please note that the rose garden is open from early May to mid-September, from 10.00 am to 7.00 pm every day. Flowering is at its best in May and June. Admission costs €4 per adult and €2 for reduced rates (5 to 15 years and groups of 15+). Last but not least, the rose garden is open free of charge during the Rendez-vous aux Jardins and the Journées du Patrimoine.
