Parc Jean-Jacques Rousseau

A picturesque English-style garden, Jean-Jacques Rousseau Park was so named in the 20th century, in homage to the eponymous philosopher.

Indeed, Jean-Jacques Rousseau had spent the last weeks of his life in Ermenonville and was buried there on the Ile des Peupliers.

The 62 hectares of the park that we know today correspond to the southern part of the old estate (contemporary period).

True testimony to the Age of Enlightenment, the park is today a rich site with a characteristic and diversified living heritage.

In 2019, the Park was classified as a Sensitive Natural Space because it is home to many environments (afforestation, meadows, rivers, ponds, etc.), typical and sometimes rare flora as well as wild fauna.
