The orchards, planted at the beginning of the XXth century, were laid out as a garden by the architect Charles Van Elst and this was the setting for the Biennials of Open Air Sculpture in Belgium (1946-1966).<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;80&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">A garden of simples<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;8624&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1578676866014{margin-top: 20px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1590089834165{padding-right: 10% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In 1987, the landscape gardener Ren\u00e9 Pech\u00e8re created a garden of medicinal plants. In this garden, inspired by the medieval enclosed garden and a genuine botanical portrait of the Humanist, are cultivated about a hundred plants known to XVIth century doctors.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row gap=&#8221;30&#8243; equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; row_content_width=&#8221;grid&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1582798816910{padding-top: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1578523276803{background-image: url(https:\/\/erasmushouse.museum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eramusjardin0001.jpg?id=4807) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;480px&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">A philosophical garden<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;8624&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1578676866014{margin-top: 20px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1593002466385{padding-left: 10% !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In the year 2000, the landscape architect Benoit Fondu designed a philosophical garden.<\/p>\n<p>This garden lies beyond the garden of medicinal plants and takes its inspiration from <em>The Religious Banquet<\/em>, written by the Humanist following his stay in Anderlecht (1521). A series of cartographic flowerbeds have been laid out, in which the visitor can admire the plants and flowers encountered by Erasmus on his many journeys.<\/p>\n<p>This garden also exhibits works created by contemporary artists such as Catherine Beaugrand, Marie-Jo Lafontaine, Perejaume and Bob Verschueren. The furniture and signs were produced by Pierre Portier.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221;
