Parc du Moulin à Tan et Serres de Collections Tropicales

The Moulin à Tan was built in 1887 by the Domange family in a vast 16-hectare island of greenery on the edge of the town and countryside. The magnificent park that surrounds it is one of the most visited in Burgundy with nearly 200,000 visitors and was classified as a "remarkable garden" in 2011. It comprises a succession of landscape scenes with different vocations. You will discover the arboretum, animal enclosures, a wild rose garden, children's play areas, water birds, a wildlife observation area... This conception of the park allows to capture not only the contemplative walker, but also the amateur in search of references. The waters of the Vanne and Ling rivers give a characteristic note of freshness and life. The calendar of the seasons is combined with nature, it is the city in the country, a place where the visitor finds peace and serenity.
