Square Paul-Langevin, Urban park in 5th arrondissement, Paris, France.
Square Paul-Langevin is a park with winding pathways and gardens featuring magnolias, ash trees, and sycamore maples. The roughly 4,300 square meter space offers varied areas for walking and resting.
The park was created in 1868 as Square Monge and contains architectural elements from the 1889 World's Fair Palace of Fine Arts. These historical components shape its appearance today.
A statue of poet Francois Villon stands in the park, created in 1947 by sculptor Rene Collamarini. Visitors also encounter ceramic works by Jules Loebnitz that add artistic character to the grounds.
The park offers children's play areas, drinking water fountains, and public restrooms for visitors. It is easily accessible via the Maubert-Mutualite metro station on Line 10.
A monumental staircase leads to the former Ecole Polytechnique building, covered with viburnum that forms a natural green sculpture. This architectural feature gives the park a distinctive appearance.
