About Bishop's Garden
The Bishop's Garden is a 17,500 m² French-style garden located behind the former Episcopal Palace and Saint-Pierre Cathedral in Lisieux. Dating back to 1459, this tranquil green space was redesigned in 1837 and is said to have been originally laid out by André Le Nôtre, the landscape architect behind Versailles. The garden originally consisted of three sections: the parterre, the cascade garden, and the Crown garden.

The garden's original extent was far larger than what exists today. The Bishop's Gardens once stretched from Place Clemenceau all the way to the Frémont Institute. What visitors see now is the preserved parterre section of this once-grand episcopal estate.
