Jardin public de Cherbourg, Public garden in Cherbourg, France.

The Jardin public de Cherbourg, also called parc du Roule, covers 1.7 hectares on avenue de Paris at the foot of the montagne du Roule. A spring descending from the hill feeds the duck and swan pond, and the grounds hold aviaries, deer and goat enclosures, a former sea-lion basin now turned into a reed bed, and two corner pavilions built in 1889.

The park was established in 1887 as one of the first green spaces created for Cherbourg residents. It was part of the city's early urban development and continues to serve the community today.

The garden displays the historical portal of Voeu Abbey, discovered in 1892, which visitors can see integrated into the landscape. A bronze monument honors fallen soldiers and marks an important gathering point within the grounds.

The garden has children's play areas, picnic tables, and accessible pathways for all visitors. Start on the main path and allow time to explore the different sections throughout the grounds.

The spring that feeds the duck and swan pond descends from the Montagne du Roule. The sea lion basin once held a single sea lion, "Flamboyante", who arrived on 10 January 1989 and left for Le Pal in the Allier in 2009; the basin was then converted into a reed bed.
