Au Paradis du Papillon

Au Paradis du Papillon is a butterfly greenhouse in Sanguinet where hundreds of butterfly species from different continents fly freely in a controlled environment. The space maintains specific warmth and moisture levels that replicate natural conditions where these insects thrive.

The project originated as an effort to protect butterfly species from distant regions and preserve them through specialized breeding programs. This work made it possible to maintain populations of species that would otherwise be difficult to see in their natural habitats.

The place reveals how butterflies live and interact in nature through direct observation of them flying freely. Visitors gain insight into their behavior and ecological importance by simply watching them move through the space.

The facility is most accessible during warmer months and offers straightforward access to the flight areas throughout. Visitors should expect controlled indoor conditions that differ from outside weather, which helps keep the environment stable.

The population is constantly refreshed with new specimens, so the collection never stays the same and visitors might see different species on return visits. This ongoing renewal means that the place changes seasonally and offers something different each time.
