The apse of Saint-Etienne Cathedral, which has long been hidden from view, today offers visitors views of the beautiful foothills in a green setting.
Created in 2017/2018 the Garden of the Foothills mixes the evocation of the Middle Ages with a touch of modernity where plants inspired by the gardens of the common people are in harmony with metal plessis (interwoven fences) and grassed ramps.
As Toul is located on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route the Foothills Garden features plants commonly found by pilgrims such as Betula pendula (common birch) and Salvia sclarea (clary sage).
