Square Georges Sarre

Square Georges Sarre features a distinct, curved metal pergola that shelters the main path, covered in climbing vines. It replaced a nineteenth century industrial site, sitting directly atop the tracks of the former Petite Ceinture railway. Georges Sarre, a long-serving politician and mayor of the arrondissement, pushed for this public space during the late nineteen nineties. The garden provides a rare, quiet stretch of greenery built into the infrastructure that once fueled the city’s freight transport.
