Square du Croisic

Square du Croisic is a private road and garden square in the 15th arrondissement featuring linear proportions of 120 meters long and 12 meters wide. It begins at Boulevard du Montparnasse and terminates in a cul-de-sac that serves the residential buildings along its path.

Originally named Square du Montparnasse in 1890, it became Rue du Montparnasse by 1898 before adopting its present designation. The area experienced a significant wartime event when German artillery struck the location on July 15, 1918 during World War I.

The square draws its name from Le Croisic, a seaside town in Loire-Atlantique, establishing a connection between Paris and coastal France.

Being a private road, access is restricted and governed by the residential nature of the space. Visitors should respect the privacy of the residents and refrain from disturbing the tranquility of this residential corridor.

This is one of the hidden private roads in the 15th arrondissement that rarely appears on tourist maps and often goes unnoticed by visitors. Its secluded location along a residential corridor makes it a quiet retreat known primarily to local residents.
