The Parc de Sceaux, designed in the 17th century by the legendary landscape architect André Le Nôtre, remains one of France’s finest examples of classical garden art. Its grand north-south and east-west perspectives, monumental hydraulic works like the Grand Canal (over one kilometer long), the Octogone, and the Petit Canal still dominate the landscape four centuries later. Historic structures—including the Pavillon de l’Aurore, the Orangerie, castle basins, moats, and the Petit Château—enrich the park’s character and reflect the elegance of the Grand Siècle.
