Square Alain-Bashung, Urban park in 18th arrondissement, Paris, France.
Square Alain-Bashung is a green space in the 18th arrondissement covering about 1,500 square meters (16,100 square feet), organized into distinct natural zones. It features a mountain forest area, dry terrain, and wetland sections, each supporting different plant and animal life.
The space opened in 2012 during a major music festival and was named to honor a singer with deep roots in the neighborhood. The project grew from efforts to create a nature-focused green area in this densely built district.
The square is named after a singer who lived in the neighborhood and was influential in French music. You can observe how residents work together in the garden spaces and tend to the green areas as a community.
The space is located in a densely built neighborhood and can be reached through an entrance on Rue de Jessaint. The nearest metro station is within easy walking distance and connects the area to other parts of the city.
The space works like a natural laboratory where different ecosystems sit side by side in a compact area. This arrangement demonstrates how varied habitats can coexist within an urban setting.
