Parc de la Chantrerie, Urban park in Carquefou, France

The Parc de la Chantrerie extends across 176,600 square meters along the Erdre River, featuring landscaped gardens and educational facilities for visitors.

The domain originated in the 17th century as a property of the Nantes Cathedral, where it supported local choir activities before becoming a public park.

The name Chantrerie derives from 'chantre', referring to Missire Jean Barrin, the cathedral cantor who rented the property in 1697.

The park offers free access throughout the year and can be reached via Chronobus C6 at Atlanpole stop or bus lines 72 and 76.

Twenty species of mammals and seventy bird species inhabit the park, which includes century-old chestnut trees, purple beeches, and plane trees.
