The Lansau Garden is situated at Marchiennes in the North (59). This experimental garden's creation started in 1996 on a blank page: a 3 hectare site of prairies devoid of trees and bordered by a brook. Today more than thousand trees shelter numerous gardens, planted chambers, orchards, nurseries, walled gardens and collection plants next to sensitive natural spaces, all this in an agricultural context and an attentive ecology.
Landscape architect, gardener and photographer, Frédéric Delesalle will guide you during your visit and explain a number of subjects: ecology and naturalist habitats in the garden, intimity in an urbanised neighbourhood, framing of views, transparency or the world recreated in an opaque perimeter, the planted chambers...
