Jardins Abbé-Pierre - Grands-Moulins

Jardins Abbé-Pierre - Grands-Moulins, Urban park in 13th arrondissement, Paris, France.

Jardins Abbé-Pierre - Grands-Moulins is an urban park in Paris's 13th arrondissement built on a former industrial site. It features multiple themed gardens with walking paths, seating areas, and play zones organized across the grounds.

The three gardens were created in 2009 by the landscape agency Ah-Ah paysagistes as part of the Paris Rive Gauche development operation in the 13th arrondissement. In September 2009 the Conseil de Paris named them "Jardins des Grands-Moulins - Abbé-Pierre" after Henri Grouès, known as Abbé Pierre (1912-2007), founder of the Emmaüs movement. After abuse accusations against him, a Conseil de Paris deliberation of October 2024 confirmed the sole name "Jardins des Grands-Moulins".

The gardens take their name from the Grands Moulins de Paris, the former industrial flour mill now housing Paris VII - Diderot university, whose facade with the inscription "GRANDS MOULINS DE PARIS" stands behind the lawn. In September 2009 the Council of Paris added the name of Abbé Pierre (1912-2007), founder of Emmaus; after abuse accusations, an October 2024 deliberation dropped it, leaving only Jardins des Grands-Moulins.

The gardens are reached from place Robert-Antelme and the surrounding streets, near the Bibliothèque François-Mitterrand station on metro line 14 and RER C. A footbridge crosses the central garden and stays open when the gardens are closed, linking rue Marie-Andrée-Lagroua-Weill-Hallé and rue Marguerite-Duras.

Three "insect hotels" stand in the gardens, winter shelters designed by Quentin Vaulot and Goliath Dyèvre with entomologist Serge Gadoum. A footbridge crosses the Central garden and stays open when the gardens are closed, linking rue Marie-Andrée-Lagroua-Weill-Hallé and rue Marguerite-Duras. A scene from season 4, episode 6 of the series Dix pour cent (2020) was filmed on the square.
