Parc Jean-Baptiste Lebas

Parc Jean-Baptiste Lebas is an urban park covering several hectares in central Lille with mature chestnut trees and younger linden trees providing shade throughout. Paved pathways wind through the grounds and connect different sections of the space.

The park was developed as part of Lille's growth as a modern city that prioritized accessible green spaces for residents. Its creation reflects the city's commitment to providing public places for relaxation and community use.

The park serves as a meeting place where neighborhood residents gather to walk, rest, and spend time together in a shared green space. People from different backgrounds naturally use it as part of their daily routine.

The park is accessible via Boulevard Jean-Baptiste Lebas, with Metro line 2 stopping at Lille Grand Palais and bus service nearby. Visitors should stick to marked pathways and check opening hours, which may vary with the seasons.

A striking red fence, designed by Dutch landscape architect West 8, surrounds the park and creates a modern visual boundary. This crimson line clearly distinguishes the park area from the surrounding urban street.
