Within the Jaÿsinia garden you can also see the ruins of the Tornalta castle, also known as Montanier Castle (12th century) and a chapel from the 18th century. Both of them can be seen by following the little footpath that winds through the garden. The garden is a place for scientific research, as well as a little slice of heaven where you can come to relax and unwind. It is a must-see if you are staying in the Giffre Valley.
