  The green jewel of Tourcoing

  Historical garden composed of a French garden structured in orthogonal lines with, at the central crossing, a fountain and a pergola, supporting beautiful white and blue wisteria, and an English garden with sinuous curves. It is representative of the eclectic current in vogue at this time, also very present in the architecture of the houses of master Tourquennoises.
  Garden "North America": overlooking the rue du Moulin Fagot, this garden is composed of two "botanical islets": North-East America and North-West America. The two raised islands are separated by a meadow symbolizing the vast expanses of the central United States.
  The "educational squares" are small exhibition gardens around various themes: smells, flowers and perennials used in the massifs of the city, acclimated exotic plants, ornamental grasses ...
  Pedagogical greenhouses (1,200 m² area) divided into 2 parts: greenhouses and cold greenhouses.
