Orangery of Jardin Massey, Greenhouse building in Jardin Massey, Tarbes, France

The Orangery houses a collection of orange trees, lemon trees, oleander, palm trees, and pomegranate trees within its long central hall.

Built in the 19th century during the garden establishment by Placide Massey, former chief gardener at the Palace of Versailles.

The building demonstrates French horticultural practices through its south-facing orientation and architectural design for plant preservation.

The structure maintains a minimum temperature of 5 degrees Celsius throughout winter to protect its collection of sensitive plants.

Over 1000 plant containers rotate seasonally between indoor and outdoor spaces, following traditional French gardening methods.
