Parc Raymond-Sibille, Antony

Parc Raymond-Sibille, Antony, Botanical garden in Antony, France.

Parc Raymond-Sibille is a 1.55-hectare botanical garden in Antony, Hauts-de-Seine. Its entrance keeps the stone porch of the former nursery, built of rough millstone blocks with a wide arched opening closed by a dark metal gate. Inside, mature cedars, purple beeches, Judas trees and a Virginia tulip tree grow.

The site appears on a 1674 plan. In 1815 it belonged to M. de Ballainvilliers; Madame Velpeau, widow of surgeon Alfred Velpeau, inherited it, and her daughter sold it to the Redemptorist Fathers on 5 August 1889 for their novitiate. Expelled in 1908, the buildings became a nursery in 1911, later named Paul Manchon. Demolished in 2000 for the Collège François Furet, the park opened on 1 May 2003.

The park's name honours Raymond Sibille, mayor of Antony from May 2002 until his death on 23 March 2003, days before the park opened. He had spent 20 years in local office and long led the Antony-Sports club. The entrance keeps the meulière stone porch of the former nursery.

The park is open every day of the year. The entrance has kept the stone porch of the former nursery, built of millstone; the gate is fitted with vertical metal bars, and a low fence of crossed bars stands in front of the wall to its right. A green-edged sign and a round red-and-white sign with a black horse silhouette are fixed on the left gate post.

A notable sculpture titled 'Grain de pollen' rises above an herb garden within the grounds. A dedicated trail guides visitors along this installation to learn about pollination and its role in plant reproduction.
