Parc Pasteur d'Orléans, Public park in central Orléans, France
Parc Pasteur d'Orléans is a four-hectare park in central Orléans featuring formal gardens, broad lawns, and ornamental ponds. A network of pathways winds through the space beneath mature trees and past flowerbeds.
The land served as a vineyard until 1786, then operated as Saint-Vincent Cemetery until its transformation into a public park in 1927. This change gave the city a new recreational space.
The park displays several sculptures including La Source Humaine by Felix Charpentier and L'Homme au Loup by Georges Jacquot, which are woven into the landscape. These works shape how people experience the space as they walk through.
The park opens daily starting at 7:30 AM, with extended hours during summer months. Entry is free and you can access the entire grounds without restrictions.
A miniature steam train, a vintage 1938 carousel, and a puppet theater operate within the park. These attractions span different eras and offer visitors unexpected entertainment elements.
