Caen - Jardin de Plantes 


Hotels
In Caen, to the west of the castle is the Jardin des Plantes, a beautifully laid out botanical garden.
The garden began in 1689 by John Callard of Ducquerie, with a few plants in his private garden. Two greenhouses were built in 1860 and the Botanical Institute was built in 1891. Jardin des Plantes did not weather the bombings in 1944 so restoration began and new greenhouses were added in 1988.
