Place Mireille, Square in the Palais-Royal neighborhood, Paris, France

Place Mireille is a triangular square formed by the corner of rue Molière and rue de Richelieu in the Palais-Royal neighborhood of Paris's 1st arrondissement. It is bordered by the Molière fountain, which stands at the junction of the two streets.

The triangular square is formed by the junction of rue Molière and rue de Richelieu, bordered by the Molière fountain. On 22 February 2008, the City of Paris named it after singer and actress Mireille Hartuch (1906–1996), who lived with her husband, journalist and essayist Emmanuel Berl, at 36 rue de Montpensier nearby. The naming also honoured her creation, Le Petit Conservatoire de la chanson.

Place Mireille takes its name from singer and actress Mireille Hartuch, who lived in this neighborhood for many years. Her connection to French music and theater is still remembered by those who know the area well.

The square is easy to reach from the Palais Royal - Musée du Louvre metro station, a short walk away through the surrounding streets. It works well as a stopping point between other visits in the area.

The triangular shape of the square came from the meeting of two narrow streets rather than any deliberate design. The fountain at its center is dedicated to Molière, whose connection to this part of Paris goes back centuries before the square itself had a name.
