Paris Tribunal

The Paris Tribunal stretches 160 meters into the sky with stacked glass volumes that decrease in size toward the top of the building.

The construction of this judicial complex started in 2014 and marked a significant change in Paris architecture when it opened on January 1, 2020.

The building centralizes all Paris judicial activities that were previously scattered across different locations, making legal proceedings more accessible to citizens.

With 38 floors above ground, 3 underground levels, and 51 elevators, the structure contains 90 law courts and separate areas for magistrates and prosecutors.

Three full-height atria with skylights illuminate 50 reception desks, while external glass elevators move along a dorsal fin on the glazed facade.
