Parc de la Légion d'Honneur, Public park in Saint-Denis, France.
Parc de la Légion d'Honneur is a green space in Saint-Denis featuring open lawns, tree-lined paths, and outdoor sculptures scattered throughout. The grounds include play areas for children, benches for resting, and walking routes that connect different sections of the park.
The site was originally part of Saint-Denis Abbey before being converted into a public park. Later it became associated with the Legion of Honor education center before developing into the recreational space visitors see today.
The park maintains a collection of bronze sculptures, including the 1895 knight Bayard statue created by artist Aristide Croisy in square Mialaret.
The grounds are accessible year-round with early morning openings, though closing times shift between seasons. It helps to check exact hours before visiting as these differ between winter and summer.
Each spring thousands of tulips create a colorful transformation of the green space. This seasonal display draws visitors wanting to witness the blooms at their peak.
