Strasbourg, Stone statue in Place de la Concorde, Paris, France

The Strasbourg statue depicts a standing female figure with a sword, positioned at the northeast corner of the Place de la Concorde octagonal square.

French sculptor James Pradier completed this neoclassical stone artwork in 1836 during the reign of King Louis Philippe as part of eight city representations.

The statue represents the connection between Paris and the Alsace region, remaining covered in black cloth when Strasbourg belonged to Germany after 1870.

The Place de la Concorde location provides direct access from the Champs-Élysées to the Tuileries Gardens through designated pedestrian walkways.

Each of the eight statues in Place de la Concorde corresponds geographically to the location of the French city it represents within the national territory.
