Square de Montsouris, Garden street in 14th arrondissement, France.
The square de Montsouris is a narrow street in the 14th arrondissement that stretches for about 200 meters and is paved with cobblestones. The street runs between Rue Reille and Rue Nansouty and features sloping terrain throughout its length.
The street was created in 1922 as a private street and opened to public access in 1959. This opening marked an important moment in the development of the area located next to Parc Montsouris.
The street is lined with villas that showcase multiple architectural styles and preserve the character of an early 20th-century affluent residential area. Residents and visitors appreciate the quiet, private setting and the carefully maintained gardens that define the street's appearance.
Visitors can walk the street easily but should expect uneven cobblestones and slopes throughout. The nearest metro stations are Alésia and Porte d'Orléans, both within a short walk.
Several well-known artists chose to live on the street, particularly painter Tsugouharu Foujita who made it his home. Most houses were built with strict construction rules requiring red or ochre brick, giving the street a consistent visual character.
