In 1875, the removal of the bastion of Bourbon made it possible to ventilate the city by creating the Alsace-Lorraine square and the botanical garden.
The plan of the garden was imagined in 1891 by René Richer, a landscaper from Sedan.
From the end of the XNUMXth century, all of society gathered in the paths of the garden to stroll, dance the musette or listen to the brass band.
A very pretty statue of Paul and Virginie, in terracotta, sculpted by Visseau, adorned the garden.
The sculptor had imagined a device allowing the umbrella to leave a perpetual runoff.
Unfortunately, the cyclone of 1905 broke the statue which is still not restored to this day.
Arborescent masonry (the work of the cement manufacturer Bourdet) adorns the small kiosk, the bridge and the transformer.
