ABOUT THE TOUR :

Monet’s Famous Gardens
Monet’s gardens are divided into two main areas: the Clos Normand flower garden and the Water Lily Garden.
The Clos Normand, located in front of the house, is filled with colorful flowers arranged in beautiful compositions. Monet carefully selected plants to create a changing palette of colors throughout the seasons.
Across the road lies the peaceful water lily pond with the famous Japanese bridge, one of the most iconic views in Giverny.

The Water Lily Pond and Japanese Bridge
The water lily pond is perhaps the most famous part of Monet’s property.
Inspired by Japanese gardens, Monet designed a tranquil landscape with bamboo, willows, and reflections of flowers on the water surface. This magical setting inspired the famous Nymphéas (Water Lilies) paintings that are now displayed in major museums around the world.
Visitors can walk around the pond and admire the famous green bridge covered with wisteria flowers.

The Village of Giverny
Beyond Monet’s house and gardens, the village of Giverny itself is charming and peaceful.
Visitors can enjoy small art galleries, traditional Norman houses, and beautiful countryside landscapes. The village still attracts artists and photographers inspired by the same light and scenery that fascinated Monet more than a century ago.
