This park has existed since 1818 and owes its name to its production vocation. According to an agreement of 1860, the departmental nursery entrusted the land to the City on condition that it supply the trees intended for the roads of the department and open it to the public. The nursery once stretched from the police station to the Place de la Méditerranée. To see: the nursery, renovated from 1978 to 1979, today occupies only 10% of its original surface, a pleasure for the eyes not to be missed during "the summer of Saint-Martin" when the park is adorned with its magnificent fall colors. American oaks, Liquidambars and other species recreate a sort of Indian summer.
