Square du Temple, Urban park in Le Marais, France

The Square du Temple - Elie-Wiesel is a 7,700 m² garden in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris, laid out in 1857 by Adolphe Alphand. It is bordered by rue de Bretagne, rue Eugène-Spuller, rue Perrée and rue du Temple. A rectangular pond with dark water, edged by low stone banks and reeds, sits among lawns, flower beds and 71 trees, including a Byzantine hazelnut and a ginkgo.

In the 12th century the Knights Templar built a fortified compound here, which later served as a prison for the royal family during the Revolution. After the old buildings were destroyed, the site was transformed into a public garden in the 19th century.

The garden's name refers to the Knights Templar, whose commandery stood on this site until the order was dissolved in 1312. Since 2017 it has also honoured Elie Wiesel, the writer and Nobel laureate (1928–2016). A stone bust on a pedestal commemorates B. Wilhelm, founder of L'Orphéon français, with a medallion portrait of Eugène Delaporte.

The garden is bounded by rue de Bretagne, rue Eugène-Spuller, rue Perrée and rue du Temple, with the Temple metro station on line 3 nearby. The largest lawn is open to the public only from 15 April to 15 October. The surrounding fence was designed by architect Gabriel Davioud.

A plaque on the northern side commemorates children deported during the war and stands beside one of the older statues in the garden. The artificial waterfall at the southern end creates a soft sound that filters through the trees and muffles street noise.
