Located on the outskirts of the former chapel, this square is the only garden in the historic heart of Auch. Rehabilitated in 2020, the landscapers wanted to transform it into a contemporary garden in keeping with the history of the site, while preserving its current use. In fine weather, the garden invites you to take a bucolic break with its removable deckchairs, play area, dry garden, cool island and remarkable trees, including a large-flowered magnolia, Japanese maple and palm trees.
