Esplanade d'Arménie, Public esplanade in Champs-Élysées quarter, France.
Esplanade d'Arménie is a public plaza in the Champs-Élysées district that runs along the Seine's right bank near Place du Canada. The space features a wide pedestrian pathway with planted areas and sculptural installations throughout.
This site was established in 2021 as a tribute to Armenian culture in Paris. Its creation marked a formal recognition of the Armenian community within the French capital.
The esplanade is named after Armenia and holds a monument honoring Komitas, a renowned Armenian composer and priest. This space reflects the connection between Paris and its Armenian community.
The esplanade is near the Champs-Élysées-Clemenceau metro station, making it easy to reach on foot. The wide space works well for strolling and sitting, especially when weather is pleasant.
The monument was created by sculptor David Erevantzi specifically for this location. This artistic work blends Armenian heritage with Parisian surroundings in an unexpected way.
