  We present the results of a search for brown dwarfs (BDs) and very low mass
(VLM) stars in the 625 Myr-old, metal-rich ([Fe/H]=0.14) Hyades cluster. We
performed a deep (I=23, z=22.5) photometric survey over 16 deg$^2$ around the
cluster center. We report the discovery of the first 2 BDs in the Hyades
cluster, with a spectral type T1 and T2, respectively. Their optical and
near-IR photometry, as well as their proper motion, are consistent with them
being cluster members. According to models, their mass is about 50 Jupiter
masses at an age of 625 Myr. We also report the discovery of 3 new very low
mass stellar members and confirm the membership of 15 others.
