Parc de la Maourine

Parc de la Maourine is an urban park in Toulouse featuring themed gardens, botanical collections, and play areas for families. Multiple pathways connect different sections and allow visitors to explore various garden zones throughout the grounds.

The park was created in the early 2000s as part of the Borderouge neighborhood development on former market gardening lands. Its establishment transformed an agricultural area into public green space for residents.

The museum garden displays food plants from around the world that visitors encounter while walking through the grounds. This living collection shows how different cultures have cultivated plants for nourishment across regions.

The park is easily accessible by metro, with nearby stations serving the area for visitors. Multiple entry points allow people to start exploring from different locations based on their preferences.

The grounds contain a Chilean Jubaea palm tree that is more than 150 years old and protected due to its rarity. This ancient tree stands as a memorable feature that reveals the botanical diversity found within the park.
