The Rendez-Vous aux Jardins will be held again on the weekend of May 31 to June 2, 2024. In Paris and all over the Île-de-France region, we'll be taking part in this cultural and bucolic event, where we'll be filling up on great outdoor activities through a wide-ranging program that honors both private and public gardens. It's a chance to explore our botanical heritage, with events taking place in a wide range of green spaces, including castles, museums and places that are usually closed to the public. Whether you're looking for a weekend out with the family, a romantic stroll, a getaway with friends or a solitary stroll, the Rendez-Vous aux Jardins are a not-to-be-missed event when the weather turns warm.
In fact, the whole Paris region is getting in on the act, with events sprouting up in every corner of theÎle-de-France region for this springtime rendezvous. The department of Essonne, for example, offers a wide range of visits and events for all ages. This time, we're taking you to Corbeil-Essonnes, where a whole host of outings await those who want to take advantage of the Rendez-Vous aux Jardins to go green!

Contes aux jardins with Isabelle, storyteller
When we hear the word mill, our minds conjure up an image that often resembles a small stone building, with a large wheel in front, turning with the wind; Or perhaps a wacky, even slightly deranged Spaniard, mounted on a starved horse, who lunges forward to attack what he takes to be giants.
In Corbeil-Essonnes, there was no shortage of mills, but it was in the water that the millstone turned, taking advantage of the waterways that still run through the town.
Visit the garden to delve with us into the secrets of these ingenious machines that have become so picturesque.
