The Jardin Albert Kahn in Boulogne-Billancourt is a serene, multicultural landscape inspired by the vision of banker and philanthropist Albert Kahn. Created between 1895 and 1920, the garden spans four hectares and showcases a series of “scenes” reflecting global harmony—Japanese village, English garden, French formal layout, and forests evoking the Vosges and Colorado. Each section transitions seamlessly, offering a contemplative journey through diverse horticultural traditions. The Japanese garden features authentic tea houses and koi ponds, while the rose orchard and greenhouse highlight seasonal blooms. Adjacent to the garden, the museum presents Kahn’s “Archives of the Planet,” a pioneering photographic project documenting global cultures in early color. Redesigned by architect Kengo Kuma, the site blends nature, architecture, and philosophy. With its immersive landscapes and peaceful ambiance, the Jardin Albert Kahn invites visitors to explore the world through plants and perspectives, just minutes from central Paris.
Paris France
Jardin Albert Kahn is located at 10-14 rue du Port, 92100 Boulogne-Billancourt, just west of Paris and close to the Seine. This four-hectare garden and museum, created by banker and philanthropist Albert Kahn, blends landscape styles from around the world, featuring a renowned Japanese garden, English and French gardens, and a recreated Vosges forest. The site is easily accessible by public transport, with the Boulogne–Pont de Saint-Cloud metro station (Line 10) just a short walk away and the Parc de Saint-Cloud tram stop (Line T2) nearby. Adjacent to the garden, visitors can explore the Musée Albert-Kahn, which houses the remarkable “Archives of the Planet” photographic collection. The area is also close to the Parc de Saint-Cloud, a vast historic park offering panoramic views of Paris, and the Bois de Boulogne, a major green space with gardens, lakes, and cultural venues. The nearby Rueil-Malmaison commune features the Parc des Impressionnistes, while the Parc de Bagatelle, another botanical highlight, is within easy reach.
