Place du Trocadéro, Public square at Chaillot hill in Paris, France
The Place du Trocadéro spans across a wide area with two curved wings of the Palais de Chaillot forming a semicircle around the central plaza.
The square received its name from the Battle of Trocadero in 1823, when French forces captured a fortified island near Cádiz, Spain.
The Palais de Chaillot houses multiple institutions, including the Museum of Man and the National Museum of the Navy, presenting exhibitions throughout the year.
Metro lines 6 and 9 connect at Trocadéro station, providing direct access to the square and its surrounding cultural attractions.
Three thousand water jets in the Warsaw Fountain create geometric patterns while cascading down towards the Seine River and the Eiffel Tower.
