    Beautifully landscaped green area designed in the English style with a water feature and waterfall, lawns, rare trees and a monument in honor of the Nobel Peace Prize winner, Elie Wiesel, which he received for his role model function in the fight against violence, oppression and racism.

      The Square du Temple was a refuge for the Knights Templar in the 13th century and was the scene of bloody punishments because the Templars were considered heretics.

      Today, luckily, peace has returned. The Square du Temple is an English garden adorned with many exotic trees (American honey locust, ash tree, ginkgo biloba) and remarkable trees (18m high Byzantine hazel or Japanese pagoda tree).

      The fauna seems more alive than ever in this large garden. You will discover birds of all kinds refreshing themselves in the pool or in the artificial waterfall constructed from rocks from the Fontainebleau forest.
