Parc de la Bouvaque, Municipal park in Abbeville, France.

The park covers fifty hectares of wetland with two large ponds surrounded by a forest environment, creating a natural setting within the city limits.

The park's name originates from the words 'bos' and 'vacca', reflecting its past use as grazing land for cattle in the marshlands.

The park includes dedicated areas that honor the work of painter Alfred Manessier, integrating art appreciation into the natural landscape.

Visitors can access the park daily from April through September between 7:00 and 20:00, with free parking available at Boulevard de la République.

Natural blue springs emerge within the park grounds, while an observation hut on a peninsula allows visitors to watch local and migratory birds.
