Place Royale, Historical square in Reims, France

The Place Royale spans 64 meters by 74 meters, featuring arcaded buildings and a central fountain adorned with a bronze statue of Louis XV.

The square was built in 1757 during the reign of King Louis XV, with architect Jean-Gabriel Legendre designing the layout according to classical French principles.

The central bronze statue depicts Louis XV in Roman attire, while the Hotel des Fermes building displays a pediment illustrating the commercial activities of Reims.

The square connects to multiple pedestrian paths and shopping areas, making it a central point for exploring the historical district of Reims.

The square's precise layout aligns with the four cardinal points, incorporating the ancient Roman roads of Durocorturum in its design.
