    • Our greenhouse recreates different living environments for butterflies and offers them ideal conditions for their development: from 22 to 28 degrees and 80 % humidity with a slight movement of air. You will find butterflies from all over the world (Asia, Africa, Central and South America, China, India and Madagascar). Their association does not usually pose any problems, except for certain species with similar colors but with a significant difference in size.

      The number of butterflies present in our greenhouse varies greatly depending on the period: more than 600, but only half are actually observable since butterflies are not constantly flying. This density, hundreds of times greater than the number of butterflies found in nature, means constantly feeding the adult butterflies.

      ADDITIONAL SERVICES:

      - Free parking !
      Au Paradis du Papillon guarantees you easy access to its greenhouse with the possibility of parking your vehicle near the entrance.
      - Picnic Sites
      To eat, free access covered or shaded pitches await you near the greenhouse.
      - Playground for children

      PRICES:

      Adults: 6.50€
      Child: 5€
      We are open:
      from April 10 to June 30, from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.

    À visiter, avec délicatesse et les yeux bien ouverts pour découvrir de magnifiques papillons. Un travail magnifique en cette époque de bouleversement climatique.

    5 / 5 Reviews posted by HazelandRachel (Manchester, United Kingdom) on 08/08/2020

    This is a lovely little attraction. Not too pricey and a fun few hours. It is very humid inside but not unbearable. Many species of butterfly. Some are tame enough to sit on your hand. I...

    2 / 5 Reviews posted by teekaymerah (Europe) on 13/07/2019

    Entrance fee bit high for what they have to offer, we truly expected the “paradise” to be much bigger and fun. They have cool butterflies and odd looking fish in fish tanks (which we wouldn’t have...
