    • 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 air movement. 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 problems, except for certain species with similar colors but a significant difference in size.

      The number of butterflies in our greenhouse varies greatly depending on the season: over 600, but only half are actually observable since butterflies are not flying continuously. This density, hundreds of times higher than the number of butterflies found in nature, means that adult butterflies must be constantly fed.

      ADDITIONAL SERVICES:

      - Free parking!
      Au Paradis du Papillon guarantees easy access to its greenhouse with the possibility of parking your vehicle near the entrance.
      - Picnic Areas
      For your meals, there are free access covered or shaded areas near La Serre.
      - Play area for children

      PRICES:

      • Adults €7
      • Children €5.50

      Open every day from April 6 to June 30 and from September 1 to 15, 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. From July 1 to August 31, 10:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

  • "Not great"

    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...
