Jardin d'Erevan, Green space in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, France.
Jardin d'Erevan occupies the Esplanade d'Arménie on Cours Albert-Ier, on the right bank of the Seine between Pont des Invalides and Pont de l'Alma. A green sign on a dark metal post reads "8e Arrt" and "JARDIN D'EREVAN". Behind it stands the Komitas monument by David Erevantzi: a stepped stone base, a carved section with figures and a tall tapering shaft, with trees on either side.
The garden was inaugurated in 2009 by Paris mayor Bertrand Delanoë and Armenian foreign minister Édouard Nalbandian, with Charles Aznavour and Hélène Ségara among those present. It occupies the Esplanade d'Arménie on the right bank of the Seine, between the Pont des Invalides and the Pont de l'Alma, beside David Erevantzi's Monument in homage to Komitas.
The garden takes its name from Yerevan, the capital of Armenia. It adjoins the Monument in tribute to Komitas by sculptor David Erevantzi, whose stepped stone base and tapering shaft stand beside the green sign reading "8e Arrt — JARDIN D'EREVAN". A commemorative plaque honours Armenian women.
The garden sits along the Seine riverbank and is easily reached by metro lines 1 and 13 with a short walk from the station. Its riverside position makes it a comfortable stop on longer walks through central Paris.
The garden opened in 2009 with a ceremony attended by singer Charles Aznavour and singer Hélène Ségara, alongside Mayor Bertrand Delanoë and Armenian Foreign Minister Édouard Nalbandian. The green sign at the entrance reads "8e Arrt" above "JARDIN D'EREVAN" in white letters on a gold-bordered panel.
