    The Parc de la Garenne or Royal Park of the Garenne de Nérac is a park of royal origin bordered by the Baïse in Lot-et-Garonne .

      The place is primarily a royal maze, the development of which begins at the beginning of the 16th century. It quickly became a popular spot at the Navarra Court and served as a place for hunting walks and games, especially for the mail game. After Henri IV's death, his condition deteriorated and his trees were cut down regularly. The 19th century marks the park's revival. Its exploitation as a forest reserve is indeed prohibited and access is made easier thanks to the work of  Georges-Eugène Haussmann . ; the park has also become the property of the city, so accessible to all walkers. It was also at this time that Roman mosaics were discovered and facilities for walkers were installed (benches, fountains, kiosk, open-air theater, etc.). In 1909, the Parc de la Garenne became the first protected site in the Aquitaine region, its protection was extended in 2020 to the Jardins du Roy on the other side of the Baïse.

        Due to its rich history, the park is characterized by very old fountains such as the Dauphin Fountain (1602) and trees that are sometimes more than 200 years old. It is also a place for protected species.
