Jardin de l'Hôtel de Sully
Behind the Hôtel de Sully, a magnificent 17th-century mansion at 62 Rue Saint-Antoine, lies a formal French garden that serves as a passageway to Place des Vosges. It is one of the most beautiful gateways to this mythical square, unknown to visitors who pass through Rue de Birague.
The garden, with its clipped linden trees and central lawn, offers a haven of calm in the shade of the mansion's rooftops. The orangery occasionally hosts exhibitions of the Centre des monuments nationaux.
Tip: allow 10 to 15 minutes to rest on a bench, then reach Place des Vosges through the vaulted passage. Free entry during opening hours.
