Park of the Bois du Château

Designed in 1970, this ten-hectare park is the largest green space in Lorient. Overlooking the Scorff valley, it stretched over farm fields, traces of which remain: an embankment with some apple trees and hundred-year-old chestnuts near the lake. Containing more than 600 trees, it also has a lake, fed by natural springs, where coots and duck live. The park is managed ecologically without pesticides or chemicals, partially grazed and its flowerbeds and meadows require no watering.
