Jardin Tino-Rossi, Urban sculpture garden near Seine River, Paris, France
The Jardin Tino-Rossi is a riverside park in Paris that runs along the Quai Saint-Bernard and is dotted with contemporary artworks. The layout combines open grass areas with narrow pathways, shaded trees, and seating arranged to face the river.
The park was created in the 1970s on the site of a former riverside factory. This transformation turned an industrial location into a public space for art and recreation.
The name honors a French chanson singer from the 20th century, and the space reflects his artistic spirit. Visitors see artists and couples lingering between sculptures, as if the musical character of the place still echoes through the riverside setting.
The grounds are freely accessible year-round and easily reached via the Jussieu metro station. Multiple entry points along the quay allow visitors to choose different routes depending on where they start.
Small amphitheater spaces at the park's edge transform into spontaneous dance floors during summer nights, where people perform tango and other styles. These informal dance venues by the water create a surreal character that catches visitors by surprise.
