Jardin de la Magalone

Jardin de la Magalone is a garden featuring two terraces with fountains representing the Rhône and Saône rivers, situated next to an 18th-century bastide. The grounds include landscaped pathways, planted areas, and various architectural elements throughout.

Construction of the bastide began in the late 1600s, paused, then resumed in 1713 and continued throughout the 1700s. This gradual building process shaped the property's form and character across multiple generations.

The garden hosts the Cité de la musique, which organizes concerts and conferences both inside the bastide and throughout the landscaped grounds.

The garden is located on Boulevard Michelet in the 9th arrondissement and is open year-round, though hours shift with the seasons. Plan ahead to check seasonal variations when scheduling your visit.

The garden displays four statues representing the seasons and five sculptures sourced from Château de Grignan, arranged along the pathways. These artworks create a distinctive visual composition alongside the geometrically positioned tulip trees.
