Square Antonin, Public square in Nîmes, France
The square features a central marble statue of Emperor Antoninus Pius, surrounded by wrought iron gates and green spaces near the Fontaine Canal.
Built in 1862 on the site of a former water basin, the square commemorates Emperor Antoninus Pius, whose family originated from ancient Nemausus.
The pedestal of the Carrara marble statue displays Latin inscriptions and verses by Nîmes poet Jean Reboul about the connection between Rome and Nîmes.
Located at the intersection of Boulevard Alphonse-Daudet and Quai de la Fontaine, the square provides benches for visitors throughout the day.
The monument features two Latin inscriptions, including one that translates to 'The Senate and People of Nîmes' on its eastern side.
