16th arrondissement of Paris
16th arrondissement of Paris, Administrative district in western Paris, France
The 16th arrondissement extends from Trocadero Gardens to Bois de Boulogne, encompassing residential neighborhoods of Auteuil, Muette, Porte-Dauphine, and Chaillot.
In January 1860, this district emerged during a municipal reorganization that expanded Paris from twelve to twenty arrondissements, incorporating former independent communes.
The district contains multiple museums, including Musée Marmottan with its Monet collection, and three UNESCO-listed buildings designed by Le Corbusier.
Metro lines 1, 2, 6, 9, and 10 connect the district to central Paris, while numerous bus routes provide additional transportation throughout the area.
The area features both Parc des Princes stadium and Roland Garros tennis complex, making it the primary location for professional sports in Paris.
