Parc Beaumont, Public park in Pau, France.
Parc Beaumont is a public park in Pau covering about 11 hectares with artificial ponds, streams, and decorative rock formations spread across the grounds. The varying terrain and mix of natural and designed elements create a diverse landscape for visitors to explore.
The property was privately held until Mayor Aristide de Monpezat acquired it in 1878 to open it to the public. A winter palace was built between 1895 and 1899, and a theatre was added in 1933 for summer concerts.
The park displays multiple statues created by sculptor Ernest Gabard throughout its grounds. California redwoods and Himalayan cedars grow among the collection of trees, shaping how visitors experience the landscape.
The grounds underwent major renovation from 2018 to 2019 with new play areas and improved facilities throughout. The layout is straightforward, making it easy to find your way around.
The grounds feature rare tree species from different regions around the world, including California redwoods that are not typically found in this area. This collection makes the park an unexpectedly diverse botanical setting.
