Square Séverine

Square Séverine, Urban park in 20th arrondissement, Paris, France.

Square Séverine is a 23,527 m² park in the 20th arrondissement, bordered by boulevard Mortier, avenue de la Porte-de-Bagnolet, rue Le Vau and rue Dulaure. Its sloping lawns are planted with white willows, a weeping elm, a Judas tree, a ginkgo, a purple beech, a Provence hackberry, a tulip tree, an American walnut, a Caucasian wingnut and a honey locust. It has a skatepark, table-tennis tables and a children's playground with a sandpit.

Square Séverine was laid out in 1933 on the initiative of Dr Albert Besson, then vice-president of the Paris municipal council and councillor for the district. The stone group Les Illusions et le Regret by Lucienne Heuvelmans, made for the 1925 International Exhibition of Decorative Arts, was installed there in 1933 and taken down during the Occupation.

The square is named after Caroline Rémy (1855–1929), the French writer, libertarian journalist and feminist whose pen name was Séverine. In 1957 Gilbert Bécaud wrote the soundtrack for the film "Casino de Paris", including a song titled "Square Séverine".

The square is bounded by boulevard Mortier to the west, avenue de la Porte-de-Bagnolet to the south, rue Le Vau to the east and rue Dulaure to the north. Métro line 3 stops at Porte de Bagnolet, and tram lines 3b serve the Séverine and Porte de Bagnolet stops. The grounds are sloping lawns, so expect uneven footing.

The stone group Les Illusions et le Regret by Lucienne Heuvelmans, made for the 1925 International Exhibition of Decorative Arts, was installed here in 1933 and then dismantled during the Occupation. The singer Gilbert Bécaud wrote a song titled Square Séverine for the 1957 film Casino de Paris.
