Square de l'Aspirant-Dunand, Urban park in 14th arrondissement, Paris, France.
The square is an urban green space in the 14th arrondissement characterized by tall plane trees and a cedar of Lebanon. At its center sits an ornamental fountain and sculptural works that commemorate important figures.
The area took its name from Jean-Louis Dunand, a French soldier who died during World War II in 1940. Various memorials and tree plantings were later added to honor and preserve the significance of the location.
The statues within the space honor individuals who shaped scientific and philosophical thought, and visitors can discover these works while walking through. The place invites reflection on these figures as one moves among the trees and memorial elements.
The space is freely accessible during daylight hours and offers various areas for relaxation and activity. It is easy to reach on foot with multiple entry points from surrounding streets.
A cedar tree from Lebanon was planted in 1982 and dedicated to poet Khalil Gibran, giving the location an international dimension. This connection to a globally recognized writer transforms the space into more than just a local retreat.
