Jardin des Gogottes

The Jardin des Gogottes is a public garden in Guyancourt covering about one hectare with various art installations throughout. The space includes play areas for children and outdoor zones designed for family recreation.

The garden was created in 1996 through a collaboration between urban planner Jean-Noël Capart and landscape architect Jacques Simon. Since its opening, the artistic installations have been defining features of the site.

Four concrete Gogotte sculptures are displayed throughout the garden, their forms inspired by characters from a classic children's book. These artworks give the space a playful character that appeals to visitors of all ages.

The garden is located in the Villaroy district and is easy to navigate with clear paths throughout the grounds. Families should plan to spend enough time exploring all areas and letting children play.

The buildings surrounding the garden feature decorative caryatid figures designed after the Venus de Milo. This connection between the garden and surrounding architecture creates a unified artistic vision throughout the district.
