Square de Yorktown, Urban park in 16th arrondissement of Paris, France.
Square de Yorktown features walking paths and landscaped gardens surrounded by a decorative fence at the intersection of Avenue Paul-Doumer and Rue Benjamin-Franklin.
The park occupies the location of a former demi-lune entrance to the Sainte-Marie barrier, part of the wall that enclosed the Fermiers généraux.
A central statue of Benjamin Franklin stands in the park, with bas-reliefs depicting his reception at court in 1778 and the Treaty of Paris signing.
The park is accessible via Metro lines 6 and 9 at Trocadéro station, offering convenient access to nearby cafés and the National Maritime Museum.
Commemorative plaques installed in 1931 and 1983 mark both the Battle of Yorktown and the bicentennial of the treaties of Paris and Versailles.
