The ideal place for a break
Backed by the Palace of the Dukes and the States of Burgundy, with the statue of Philippe Le Bon which recalls the memory, this square of 975 m2 is the remainder of the vast animal garden created for Marguerite De Flandres, wife of Philip the Bold. In this space, lived the animals of the ducal court: cows, birds, a porpoise brought back from Flanders by the duke and an ostrich ...
In the 19th century, following the style in vogue, this space is transformed into an English garden and surrounded by a wrought iron fence.
