Square Gabriel-Pierné, Urban park in 6th arrondissement, Paris, France

Square Gabriel-Pierné spans 644 square meters, featuring stone paths, resting areas, and trees near the Institut de France and River Seine.

The square opened in 1938 and incorporates the 1830 Carmes Market fountain by Alexandre-Évariste Fragonard, designated as a historical monument since 1952.

The square bears the name of French musician Gabriel Pierné and contains stone benches shaped like books, reflecting its location near the Bibliothèque Mazarine.

Visitors can access the park through Metro line 7 at Pont Neuf station, line 4 at Saint-Germain-des-Prés, or line 10 at Mabillon station.

The 1968 bronze sculpture 'Carolina' by Marcello Tommasi stands among stone benches, while the central fountain displays faces representing trade and abundance.
