Square Barye, Urban park at eastern tip of Ile Saint-Louis, Paris, France.
Square Barye contains numerous tree species including Lebanese cedar, paulownias, Chinese soap tree, and Irish yews arranged along curved walking paths.
The garden space transformed in 1876 when the Sully Bridge construction connected Boulevard Saint-Germain to Bastille, replacing a 17th-century terraced garden.
The park displays bronze reproductions of Antoine-Louis Barye sculptures, including Theseus slaying Centaur Bienor and The Lion with Snake, installed in 2011 and 2014.
The park remains temporarily closed until August 2024 for Olympic Games preparations, but normally provides drinking water points and accessibility features.
During World War II, the original bronze sculptures in the square were removed and melted down in 1942 for military equipment production.
