A comeback under the sign of "elements". Where it is question of earth, water and fire


The hanging gardens, 17 hectare greenery, dominating the bay of Le Havre invite you to travel. The Malraux museum, from October 18th to January 25th, displays a new exhibition : a pictorial and photographic evocation of the harbour atmospheres.

Now that the falling leaves have made their comeback, here is a new and original season that starts, showing again that the flow of creation continues to irrigate the veins of the City of Le Havre.

Le Havre : the hanging gardens

 

The hanging gardens

On the cliff, overlooking the Baie de Seine, the Fort of Sainte-Adresse, monument of the mid 19th century, is starting a second life.

The buildings, turned into “hanging gardens” are dedicated to nature and the environment. The place shelters an arboretum and the municipal greenhouses.

This is the perfect place to go for a pleasant stroll since it provides one of the best panoramas on the sea.
