Parc des Chanteraines

Parc des Chanteraines is a large green space spanning two municipalities with walking paths, grassy areas, woodlands, and water features. The park contains a farm area, pond habitats for birds and amphibians, and a miniature train that travels through the grounds.

The site was founded as a park in 1978 on former industrial land. It underwent major expansion and renovation between 2010 and 2012 to become a nature recreation area.

The farm area on the grounds displays cattle, chickens, goats, and sheep roaming freely where visitors can watch them up close. The setting recalls traditional Norman farming practices and invites people to connect with domestic animals.

The grounds are spacious, so wearing sturdy shoes and allowing time to explore is wise. The miniature train offers a convenient way to cover distances without walking the entire route on foot.

The park was built on the grounds of a former factory, so visitors can see how industrial land was transformed into thriving green space. This transformation shows how a region worked to move past its industrial past and create something new.
