ANIMA is a magical place of sensuality, of wonder, of contemplation, of joy, of healing, and of inspiration. Created by the famous Austrian artist André Heller, this unusual garden/museum of more than three hectares amazes with its exuberance, its monumental sculptures by Pablo Picasso, Keith Haring, Alexander Calder or Auguste Rodin and other colorful works of art which are enthroned in the heart of a richly wooded park. More than just a visit, this lively museum offers a sensational experience with its hundreds of types of plants and trees, from bamboo over palms and cacti.
