    • Situated on the site of the old fortified castle at the top of a village classified as one of the "most beautiful villages in France", the panoramic gardens overlook the confluence of the Dordogne-Vézère rivers. With their 360° panorama of the landscapes and rooftops of the medieval village of Limeuil, they offer you an exceptional position.

      Throughout your visit, enjoy the educational, fun and interactive gardens (color garden, witches' garden, water garden, insect garden, etc.) set in a 2-hectare English-style wooded park. The gardens can be visited independently along the interpretive trails and thematic gardens. With family or friends, an Escape Game Garden is available. In groups or as part of a school setting, the garden team offers adapted and accompanied visits with educational workshops. Also discover the insect gardens and its educational hive and giant games.
