Square Charles-de-Gaulle, Garden square in central Toulouse, France
The Charles-de-Gaulle square extends over 5000 square meters in a trapezoidal shape, featuring dynamic water jets and numerous wooden benches along tree-lined paths.
Created between 1873 and 1875 during the development of Alsace-Lorraine Street, the square replaced the former Maison Commune, with its iron fence removed in 1928.
The square displays several art pieces including a bronze statue of singer Claude Nougaro, a Jean Jaurès bust, and the Maternité sculpture by Jean Louis Toutain.
The Capitole metro station on line A connects directly to the square, with multiple bus lines and bike-sharing stations available in adjacent streets.
The modern fountain system comprises 14 water jets emerging directly from granite ground, covering 150 square meters between the Nougaro statue and Donjon tower.
