Esplanade Gaston-Monnerville, Urban park in 6th arrondissement, Paris, France.
The Esplanade Gaston-Monnerville is an open green space located between Rue Auguste-Comte and the Jardin des Grands-Explorateurs in the 6th arrondissement. The area features lawns, walking paths, and a setting for strolling through this central Paris neighborhood.
The city of Paris renamed this green space in 2006 to honor Gaston Monnerville, a politician whose legacy remains present in the neighborhood. A bronze bust of the honoree was added later to mark this decision.
The open space is named after Gaston Monnerville, a French politician who held the position of Senate President. This naming reflects how Paris honors important political figures through its public spaces.
The open space is easily reached on foot from the Metro exit at Notre-Dame-des-Champs on line 12 or from Vavin on line 4. It is a public location with flat terrain and several entry points for exploration.
The western side of the esplanade was given an additional name in 2019 to honor another notable figure. This naming shows how the place continues to add new layers of meaning to its public spaces.
