Park of the Saint Jean de Chépy Domaine
Surrounding the Saint Jean de Chepy Castle with its 10 hectares, the Domaine's park is an atypical place, combining nature, art and heritage. Private property with event activity, open to visitors free of charge, subject to availability.
A 10-hectare preserved natural setting, the Domaine Saint Jean de Chepy park is home to 85 works of art, mainly from the Sculpture Symposiums organized each year since 2007 by the ChépyTerra association. This collection, supplemented by a few works on deposit, constitutes "Le Chant des sculptures" (permanent open-air exhibition).
Like the Estate, and its 13th century Castle, the park bears witness to the passage of men and their various activities over the centuries. Through the Orangery, dating from the 18th century and restored, as well as the Beylier turbine from the 18th century, fed by the canal, traces of the industrial activity of the territory and still active today.
Crisscrossed by streams, ponds and rivers, it is also home to a very diverse fauna, which has earned it the status of biodiversity refuge LPO (League for the Protection of Birds). A protected natural area, it illustrates the Domain's commitment to sustainable development with the installation of a business apiary, honey trees and an orchard.
Thanks to this synergy between nature, art and heritage, the Domaine's park aims to become a place of disconnection and well-being, for businesses and individuals alike.
