EXPO: The Massart Garden – 100 years of botanical stories

In the heart of the Massart Garden, an exhibition invites visitors to fully grasp the rich and eventful history of this extraordinary botanical garden, created by the botanist Jean Massart and the landscape architect Jules Buyssens in 1922. 

Situated at the outskirts of the Sonian Forest, the garden reflects not only the evolution of botanical sciences but also the way gardens changed in terms of aesthetics, presenting very contrasting phases of evolution. Today, the garden has been restored to its former glory as a result of an ambitious restoration project which allows the public to discover the traces of this rich past.
