Uzès, France |
A Medieval Garden in the heart
of Uzès
Tranquility
|
In the middle of Uzès
sits a tranquil spot
filled with an assortment of plants, stone walls from various eras, and a
few surprises as well. From the top of Rue St-Théodorit, you enter the
garden through an archway up to a beautifully painted wooden
doorway.
Looking
upward, you see the Bishop’s Tower (built in the 12th
century) and the crenellated battlements of the Duchy of Uzès.
|
Three courtyards are filled with herbs, flowers,
bushes and trees native to the region, planted the style of the Middle
Ages.

 |
The Jardin Médiéval is open from April to October,
so you can experience a varied color palette no matter what time of year
you visit. Here, the fall vines in red are glorious against the white
stonework that has been carefully restored. |
