The Maison de l'Eau relies in particular on a former pumping station built in 1906 and its Sagebien waterwheel, restored as a small hydroelectric plant (renovation begun in 2012, commissioned around 2015). The site has also hosted emblematic renewable energy installations, such as a Bollée windmill (2007) and photovoltaic panels (2009). A program to protect local grass snakes and other snakes was launched in 2006.\n\nIn 2020, visitor reception was reorganized and moved to the Maison de l'Eau.

La Maison de l'Eau s'appuie notamment sur une ancienne station de pompage construite en 1906 et sa roue Sagebien, réhabilitée comme micro-centrale hydroélectrique (rénovation engagée en 2012, mise en service vers 2015) ; le site a aussi accueilli des installations d'énergies renouvelables emblématiques, comme une éolienne Bollée (2007) et des panneaux photovoltaïques (2009). Un programme de préservation des couleuvres et serpents locaux est mis en place en 2006.\n\nEn 2020, l'accueil des visiteurs est réorganisé et transféré à la Maison de l'Eau.

The Valois family had a country château built there, the “château du Gué-de-Maulny,” which remains in history as the birthplace of the future King of France, Jean II the Good (1319–1364), who reigned from 1350 to 1364. In 1359, during the Hundred Years' War, English troops marching on Le Mans destroyed the château and the adjoining chapel, forcing the clergy to retreat toward the city center. A collegiate chapel with the same name, moved to Place du Hallai, was not finally demolished until 1743.\n\nIn the industrial era, the city of Le Mans bought mills on the site in 1862 that harnessed the power of the Huisne. These mills were converted into water treatment facilities between 1900 and 1907, before being abandoned for lack of capacity, with the activity moved to L'Épau. The ford itself was replaced by a wooden bridge in 1872, then by a new footbridge installed by the city in 1987, after the site was fully absorbed into the urban fabric of today's park.",{"bus":127,"tram":128,"hours":129,"access":130,"acces_sources":61},"Lines T3, 13 — Pêcheurs stop, 250 m · wheelchair-accessible stop","Lines T1, T2 — Gares stop, 600 m · wheelchair-accessible stop","Open 7 days a week, 24 hours a day (free-access neighborhood facility)","Entrance on rue de l'Angevinière (72100 Le Mans), second access on the Gare Sud side.

A free-access neighborhood facility, it has picnic tables, benches, a children's play area and a multisports space, making it a favorite relaxation spot for local families. A footbridge crosses the Huisne to a meadow where you can watch ducks along the riverbank, and dogs are welcome.\n\nSince 2018, the park has hosted an urban arts festival every year that mixes music and street art murals, helping give the site a cultural identity again. The redevelopment led by Le Mans Métropole also upgraded the multisports field and redid the entrance on the Gare Sud side.\n\nIts new play area, “La Mangrove,” comes from the park's location at the confluence of the Huisne and the Sarthe: a floodable site in constant contact with water. The city drew on that to create a tropical forest theme, with trees that grow with their roots in the water and whose big roots intertwine into a labyrinth, sheltering birds, fish and insects. Natural wood, ropes, foliage and immersive sets make up an adventure course where kids climb through branches, cross suspension bridges, slip between roots, look out from the lookout towers and zip along the zipline. A discreet treasure hunt awaits kids: count the colorful birds hidden in the structure.\n\nThe area is for ages 3–14, with a swing section open from age 1, and each piece of equipment is marked with the age it is meant for.
