last vestiges of the western part of the <strong>Parc du Ch\u00e2teau de Chantilly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1682, the Great Cond\u00e9 built<strong> a pheasantry <\/strong>\u2013 originally a place to breed pheasants \u2013 and commissioned <strong>Andr\u00e9 Le N\u00f4tre<\/strong> to design the garden. Viewpoints, ornamental ponds and terraces were laid out. The garden became a <strong>destination for walks<\/strong> taken by the guests of the Princes of Cond\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the Revolution, the place became a <em>bien national<\/em> and was bought by a family, who stayed here for 160 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the 20th century, the gardens around the Faisanderie were sold to allow for the expansion of the town of Chantilly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong><strong>Through the will of one man<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the early 1990s, an urban planning project provided for the construction of fifty-eight houses on the expropriated western part of the ch\u00e2teau parkland. A movement opposing this scheme enabled <strong>Yves Bienaim\u00e9<\/strong>, creator of the Mus\u00e9e vivant du cheval, to buy the pheasant farm and its garden in December 1999.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to extensive research <strong>of plans from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries<\/strong>, Yves Bienaim\u00e9, assisted by <strong>master gardener<\/strong> Serge Saje, has been able to return to this garden the perspectives that had disappeared over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2002, the garden <strong>opened to the public<\/strong>, and immediately received the \u2018Site touristique 2002\u2019 award, following by the \u2018Jardin Remarquable\u2019 label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Children<\/strong> are not forgotten here: f<strong>un and educational activities <\/strong>are offered, including rabbit and chicken races and sheepdog work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" data-src=\"https:\/\/destination.parc-oise-paysdefrance.fr\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/potager-des-princes-4-400x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-974\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/destination.parc-oise-paysdefrance.fr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/potager-des-princes-4-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/destination.parc-oise-paysdefrance.fr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/potager-des-princes-4-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/destination.parc-oise-paysdefrance.fr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/potager-des-princes-4-650x975.jpg 650w, https:\/\/destination.parc-oise-paysdefrance.fr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/potager-des-princes-4-280x420.jpg 280w, https:\/\/destination.parc-oise-paysdefrance.fr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/potager-des-princes-4-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/destination.parc-oise-paysdefrance.fr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/potager-des-princes-4.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-highlight clear\">\n            <h2 class=\"wp-block-highlight-item wp-block-highlight-title\"><strong>Practical information<\/strong><\/h2>\n    \n    <p class=\"wp-block-highlight-item wp-block-highlight-excerpt\">Le Potager des Princes<br>17 rue de la Faisanderie<br>60500 Chantilly<br>Tel: +33 (0)3 44 57 39 66<br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.potagerdesprinces.com\/\"><u>www.potagerdesprinces.com<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>To complete your visit<\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To discover an idea for a walk, click on <a href=\"https:\/\/rando.pnr-idf.fr\/pedestre\/aller-et-retour-au-chateau\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this link<\/a>, or download the app \u2018rando Parc Oise\u2019 to be geolocated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here\u2019s one original excursion to make with the family in Chantilly.
