Respect for the site, its topography, preservation of notable trees (centuries-old olive trees, rows of cypress and pine trees…), contemporary developments, especially the main garden designed around circles of slabs, create a unique relationship between the built and the botanical environments.
The renovation of 3,000 square meters of terrace is underway, including the creation of a “hanging garden” that offers a view over the entire city and the Baie des Anges.
Visiting this construction site in the company of gardeners is the event of these Rendez-vous aux jardins 2009 at Villa Arson.
Sunday, June 7 from 2 pm to 6 pm
Self-guided discovery of the gardens with signs identifying species, historical information about the estate, and presentation of in-situ art works.
Guided tours with gardeners at 2:30 pm and 4 pm
“Villa Arson: from the old estate to the creation of a 21st-century hanging garden.”
No prior reservation required.
