Facts and practical information

The Albert-Ier garden is one of the oldest public gardens in Nice.

It is enclosed in a perimeter formed by the Avenue des Phocéens, the Place Masséna, the Avenue de Verdun and the Promenade des Anglais. As it expanded, it was successively named the Paradiso Garden, the Jardin des Plantes, the Masséna Garden, the Palm Garden and, in 1914, the Albert Ier Garden, King of the Belgians, in honor of his courageous stand against Germany.
