    • The Merville Labyrinth: a garden like no other, a stone's throw from Toulouse


      Just 20 minutes from Toulouse, the Merville Labyrinth invites you to take a unique stroll through an exceptional boxwood garden. Designed in the 18th century, this listed historical monument is now the largest boxwood maze in Europe, with over 6 kilometers of plant-filled paths.


      Explore the garden differently with the Dédale trail at Château de Merville

      The Dédale trail is ideal for those who simply want to be guided by the paths, admire the plant perspectives, and discover the history of this marvelous boxwood garden. Here, there are no puzzles or mysteries: it's a free stroll, perfect for taking your time and enjoying a unique garden.


      The Enigma trail of the Merville Labyrinth: a fun adventure in the heart of the garden

      For those who love adventure, the Enigma trail offers a unique way to explore the maze. Themed around Tales and Legends, it invites young and old alike to solve puzzles inspired by the children's favorite characters and stories. A fun, family-friendly way to explore the garden's paths in a playful way.


      The garden of the Château de Merville, a lively place all year round

      In addition to the trails, the garden hosts activities and events all year round: egg hunts, outdoor shows, themed days, etc. There's always a good reason to come back and discover the Merville Labyrinth. A great idea for a nature outing, combining play, strolling, and wonder for all ages.

    A lovely discovery, a very pleasant park with a maze and its super cool puzzles (we were 4 adults and really enjoyed it) The castle and its rooms are also amazing... and what can I say about the guide (Morgane)? Wow... her explanations are clear, she seems to know and love the castle like the back of her hand (well done to her and thank you again)

    Visited the castle and the grounds; a very pleasant experience, a brilliant guide, and the actors of the Countess and the Clever Cat deserve at least a Molière. We had a great time despite a refreshing thunderstorm. The meal was also very good at the Tavern, with a perfect welcome.

    Beautiful setting and well kept Labyrinth/Maze and gardens, however it should be pointed out, that unless you speak & read French it is pointless to visit. There were only guide booklets in French. I...
