Square des Écrivains-Combattants-Morts-pour-la-France

This memorial garden in La Muette features planted areas with roses, heather, flowering ash trees, and a cedar tree spread across its space. The rectangular area measures approximately 70 meters long and 54 meters wide.

This space was established in 1929 on the former site of fortification bastions from the Thiers wall. The official name was assigned by municipal decree in 1928.

This space honors writers who died during World War I. The dedication marks the memory of more than 500 French authors lost to that conflict.

The space is accessible via Boulevard Suchet at number 22 and Avenue du Maréchal-Maunoury at number 21, both near La Muette metro station. The garden is open to visitors throughout the day and evening hours.

The building at number 1 on this street was constructed in 1932 in Louis XVI style and served as the first residence of the Duke of Windsor. This architectural detail makes the address notable among the surrounding structures.
