Square Laurent-Prache, Urban park in 6th arrondissement, Paris, France.

Square Laurent-Prache features white and red chestnut trees, a Judas tree, and a yew tree surrounded by Mexican orange flowers and rhododendrons.

The square was established in 1901 following the extension of Rue de Rennes to Quai de Conti, after buildings at 15-17 Rue de l'Abbaye were demolished.

The park contains a bronze bust of Dora Maar, given to Paris by Pablo Picasso in 1959 as a tribute to Guillaume Apollinaire.

Located at 1 Place Saint-Germain des Prés, the park opens from 9:30 AM to 7:30 PM on weekdays and 9:00 AM to 7:30 PM on weekends.

The garden displays remnants of the Virgin Chapel from Saint-Germain-des-Prés Abbey, which was demolished in 1802, including fragments of a former cloister.
