アンドレ・ル・ノートル
The main parterre was designed by the famous landscape architect André Le Nôtre who also worked at Versailles, Saint-Germain-en-Laye and Marly. For many years, the parterre had two interlacing "L"'s, in honour of Louis XIV. In 2013, to commemorate the 400th anniversary of André Le Nôtre, the garden was reconstructed in its initial form of a "french formal garden". Two allées, given modern names in honour of Le Nôtre and Racine, border the Eure river.
