Lucarne d'Évry, Urban window in Les Pyramides district, Évry-Courcouronnes, France.
The window sits at 24 Rue Jules Vallès, positioned high on a concrete wall facing a street where participants gather for football challenges.
The window gained recognition in 2019 when local residents began posting videos of their attempts to kick footballs through its narrow opening.
The window has evolved into a football skill test destination, featured in the French national team anthem and an Adidas advertisement with Lionel Messi.
Participants position themselves across the street from the window, timing their attempts between passing traffic to shoot footballs through the opening.
Former Paris Saint-Germain player Nene successfully completed the challenge at age 40, demonstrating precise control by curling the ball into the window.
