Parc paysager du Château de Sassenage
The park of the castle is a pleasant place to walk, whose current layout dates from 1853. This 8-hectare green setting is composed of remarkable bicentennial trees and multiple species of flowers and shrubs.
In 1853, the Marquis of the time, Rayond-Ismidon-Marie de Bérenger, with a passion for horticulture, redesigned the Château's park in the English style to create a romantic atmosphere and poetic views over the Vercors and Chartreuse massifs: over 3,000 trees and shrubs were planted, including the majestic Cedar of Lebanon. The park, the fruit of centuries of evolution, is now a protected heritage site listed as a Monument Historique.
