There are three courtyard gardens (cloisters) at the
Cloisters.
- The central Cuxa Cloister has both modern and medieval plants
with a typical crossed-paths and central fountain layout.
- The Trie Cloister attempts to have plants depicted in the
"mille fleurs' background of the Unicorn Tapestries.
- The Bonnefort Cloister has over 250 species of herbs and
plants cultivated during the Middle Ages.
