Vaere's Garden, Community garden in Plougonvelin, France.
The Jardin du Vaéré features diverse plant species, miniature stone sculptures, fish ponds, and peaceful walking paths along a stream through its 4,500 square meter grounds.
Created in 2004 by former farmer Gaby Quellec, this garden was developed on the site of an old traditional washhouse that had been buried under earth and plant debris.
The garden showcases local craftsmanship through miniature stone houses and monuments created by Pierre Lannuzel, representing scenes that reflect regional heritage and artistic traditions.
Open 24/7 with free admission, the garden provides parking spaces, picnic tables, benches, and accessible pathways for visitors seeking outdoor relaxation near Saint-Mathieu lighthouse.
This volunteer-maintained botanical space combines medicinal plants, tropical species, carved stone miniatures, and wildlife habitats including frogs and fish in decorative basins.
