Garden
The Garden is set in an idyllic location, magnificently overlooking the lake, and forms an integral part of the Museum scenography.
Like the beautiful objects displayed in the Museum, our garden plants also showcase the exhibition. Aromatic herbs, vegetables, cereals and other plants which play a role in our diet all flourish here.
The Garden also lets its educational orientation blossom as it welcomes schools and the public for in-depth guided tours, tasting sessions or one-of-a-kind culinary workshops. A ‘must-not-miss’ part of Museum life, it is also a resource for culinary experience which includes many activities such as lively cooking demonstrations for all visitors of the Alimentarium.
Enlarged, its mineral areas have been removed to make way for several square meters of cultivated land, allowing our famous gardener, Émile, to expand his possibilities to offer you an ever more varied green setting!
