Quai François-Mauriac

The Quai François-Mauriac extends 475 meters along the Seine River, featuring a 25-meter wide pathway bordered by contemporary buildings and water views.

This section of the riverbank transformed from an industrial zone into an urban development area through the Paris Rive Gauche project in the 1990s.

The National Library of France stands prominently along this riverfront, housing millions of documents and serving as a center for research and learning.

Multiple public transportation options connect to the quay, including Metro Line 6 at Quai de la Gare station and several bus routes.

A floating swimming pool, the Joséphine Baker pool, attaches to the quay, allowing people to swim directly above the Seine River waters.
