Built in the middle of the 19th century, the castle is located in a vast park. There is the museum of the Domaine Départemental de Sceaux. Created in 1973, it offers collections in its four main sites: the castle, the orangery, its gardens and the old renovated stables. All information on visiting the estate: parisjetaime.com/culture/domaine-departemental-de-sceaux-p1064.

Bièvre Basin Bird Observatory

Highlight • Viewpoint

The ideal time to observe is, it seems, in the morning at daybreak! I went in the late afternoon and there were still a lot of birds to see. Signs help to recognize them.
