Jardin de l'Arquebuse

This historic garden in Dijon combines a formal botanical collection, an arboretum, and a natural history museum on the grounds once used by a guild of crossbow and arquebus marksmen. Thousands of labelled plant species are arranged for study, while mature trees shade winding paths along a small canal. The setting serves both scientific research and public recreation, making it popular with families and students. Its blend of ordered plant beds and relaxed parkland offers a green counterpoint to the stone streets of the old town.
