The different sections of the garden were interesting to vistit and nice to see the sustainable approach with lots of natural habitats for wildlife. I hope to come back soon! A wonderful and beautiful place, as much for its historical interest as a UNESCO heritage site, as for the botanical garden spaces, curated in an attractive and accessible way with lots of information. Not to be missed if you are anywhere near. Loved it. Museum, very well maintained. Spend prox 5hrs here..cloudy, rainy & sunny day... With family (2 kids - 4 & 7yrs) with the HistoApp on the provided tablets searching for golden coins in chests and in the meantime get the glimpse of history. Got them engaged for the full 2.5hrs in the museums and another 2hrs in the gardens. Cherry on the cake were the gardens, one adventure after another one. So much flora to be found here very diverse fauna. If you like flowers, garden inspiration and this is the place to see. Parking during high season (mid july) might be a challange (free). Parking is suitable for campers on main parking, there is a 2nd parking lot where high vehicles (2mtr+) are prohibited. A real gem, with unique and A really fascinating place to visit. The and of La Saline d’Arc-et-Senans are impressive, and the museum does a great job explaining how the saltworks operated. The grounds are quiet and relaxing—perfect for a short walk. Definitely worth the visit if you’re in the area.
