Parc Matisse, Urban park in Lille, France

Located near Lille Europe station, Parc Matisse extends over 8 hectares with open meadows, walking paths, and diverse vegetation areas for outdoor activities.

The park was designed and established according to Gilles Clément's concept of evolving gardens, which emphasizes natural plant development and ecological management principles.

The park's name pays tribute to French artist Henri Matisse, connecting the green space to the regional artistic legacy of northern France.

The park remains open throughout the year and allows bicycles, scooters, and leashed dogs, while motorized vehicles are restricted except for maintenance purposes.

The Derborence Island rises 7 meters above ground level as an inaccessible raised garden, creating a natural sanctuary within the urban environment.
