Parvis Maurice-Druon, Public square in Invalides, Paris, France
Parvis Maurice-Druon is a public square located in front of the Basilica of Sainte-Clotilde in the 7th arrondissement. It extends between Casimir-Périer and Martignac streets, providing an open gathering space in this built-up neighborhood.
The square was originally part of the Rue Las-Cases and received its current name in 2014 to honor Maurice Druon, a French writer and politician. This renaming reflected a cultural recognition in the heart of the 7th arrondissement.
The square serves as a meeting point for residents and visitors heading to the nearby basilica or administrative buildings in the neighborhood. It functions as a social space that connects different parts of this densely built quarter.
The Solférino Metro station on line 12 is the nearest direct access point to the square. The area is easily walkable and accessible to visitors on foot.
The square is named after Maurice Druon, whose literary works such as The Curse of the Kings became known far beyond France. Most visitors passing through do not recognize this connection to world literature.
