    Directly above the church of Saint-Michel, a masterpiece of Romanesque art and listed as a historical monument, old terraces of village vegetable gardens are home to the Jardin des Herbes, labeled by the Ministry of Culture "Jardin Outstanding ". Created by Danièle ARCUCCI thirty years ago, this garden is thought of as a fabulous open-air pharmacopoeia. Its architecture is spread over 3000m². More than 200 species of aromatic and medicinal plants are cultivated, inventoried and labelled.

      It's a fabulous open-air pharmacopoeia spanning 3,000m². More than 200 species of aromatic and medicinal plants are cultivated, inventoried, and labeled. It is divided into two parts:
      The medicinal garden, which connects humans with the virtues of medicinal plants still used in 21st-century pharmacopoeia. They are classified by theme, and their color-coded labels reveal all their secrets.
      The collections garden, below, is designed in the shape of a sun and its rays, housing some of these medicinal plant families in different botanical species: sage, lavender, geraniums, and collections are arranged in flowerbeds delineated by boxwood borders. This garden attracts many visitors every year, lovers of rare plants and botany, enchanted by the layout of the garden's terraces, the fragrances they emit, and the colors that alternate and harmonize with each other. All blending into the landscape, opening onto a superb panorama!
      The Jardin des Herbes participates in the annual "Rendez-vous aux Jardins" event for enthusiasts, organized by the Ministry of Culture.
