About
Le Thabor is a magnificent 10-hectare landscaped garden situated in the heart of Rennes. Its origins date back to the 17th century when it was a garden adjacent to the abbey of Saint-Melanie. At the end of the 18th century, it became a public walk reserved for men. It was extended and developed in the second half of the 19th century by Denis Bühler. The south part of the park was created at the beginning of the 20th century. Le Thabor includes a botanic garden with 3122 named species, a collection of remarkable trees, rose garden, aviary and bandstand. It offers a floral discovery trail which changes with the seasons. 
 
This beautiful park is found in the centre of the city. With ten hectares of green flora and seasonal plants this is a great place to go and recharge after a hectic day in the city. You can stroll around through the many different types of trees or go to the Botanical gardens in the east of the park.

This one is ideal for running if you are working somewhere in Rennes center and have an hour and a half of break at noon.
