Treat yourself to a day in a truly extraordinary setting during the Rendez-vous aux Jardins, the event for nature lovers, culture enthusiasts, and heritage buffs. Whether you're passionate about plants, fascinated by history, or simply looking for an enjoyable outdoor escape, this event is perfect for you!
From iconic gardens to breathtaking landscape masterpieces, you’ll have the opportunity to explore immersive green spaces where nature has been sculpted (or left wild) within stunning green enclaves. To enhance the experience, a full lineup has been planned: fun activities, creative workshops, concerts, art installations...
In Essonne, head over to Villeconin Castle, one of the most stunning medieval castles in Île-de-France. It still retains its original architecture, complete with soaring towers and fortified walls. Explore inside to admire its opulently decorated rooms, browse through its art galleries, and enjoy a leisurely stroll through its beautiful French-style gardens.
Embark on a journey through time with this visit, transporting you back over a thousand years to the heart of the Middle Ages! Whether you're with friends, family, your children, as a couple, or even solo, the Château de Villeconin is a must-see stop during your Jardins Rendezvous!
You can either take a self-guided tour or enjoy a guided visit led by the owners, then wander through the park as we share the site’s history—from a medieval castle to a Renaissance manor, then a farm, and now a family home nestled in lush surroundings.
Last tour at 4:30 p.m., followed by theatre.
