The small garden seat in the form of an ancient temple was originally placed on the wall of the farm building. Today it forms the western end of the hedge path, which begins between the Corps de Logis and the western pavilion. The statue “Mind”, also known as “Young Zeus”, originally stood in the pleasure garden, but has been in the classicist seat since 1948.
