Courthouse of Créteil, Modern courthouse in Créteil, France

The judicial building combines a 16-story tower with a lower section containing courtrooms, connected by a pedestrian bridge over an entrance hall.

Architects Daniel Badani and Pierre Roux-Dorlut completed the construction of this judicial facility in 1978, following Paris regional administrative reorganization.

Interior designer Pierre Guariche created the decorative elements while Swedish artist Bengt Olson contributed a wall sculpture to enhance the building.

The courthouse contains eight civil chambers, seven criminal chambers, the Val-de-Marne Assize Court, and juvenile court facilities under one roof.

The tower's vertical supporting walls form a silhouette that represents both the scales of justice and a law book through its architectural design.
