Square Jacques-Antoine

Square Jacques-Antoine, Urban park in 14th arrondissement, Paris, France.

Square Jacques-Antoine is a triangular urban park of 843 m² in the 14th arrondissement, one of the smallest green spaces there. It is planted with common horse chestnuts and Prunus cerasifera pissardii flowering cherries, with bushes around its perimeter and benches along the edge. At its center stands the stone base of the Raspail monument, surrounded by a small metal fence.

The square was created in 1896 and named after the architect Denis Antoine (1733-1801), designer of the Hôtel de la Monnaie. It holds the stone base of a monument to François-Vincent Raspail (1794-1878), made in 1889 by the sculptor Léopold Morice. The bronze statue was melted down during the Occupation, but two bronze reliefs by Morice, cast by Thiébaut, remain.

The monument's two bronze reliefs by Léopold Morice, cast by Thiébaut, are titled "Raspail proclame la République à l'Hôtel de Ville" and "Raspail visitant un malade dans une mansarde". They show the politician and physician François-Vincent Raspail proclaiming the Republic and visiting a sick patient in a garret.

The space is easy to reach on foot and ideal for a break during a walk through the residential neighborhood. It offers seating under trees and functions as a designated off-leash dog area where pets can move freely.

The monument retained its original bronze reliefs at the base even after the main statue vanished during Nazi occupation. These surviving bronzes are uncommon remnants that withstood the destruction of that era.
