Square Lowendal

Square Lowendal serves as a quiet, residential enclave within the busy fifteenth arrondissement of Paris. Created in nineteen thirty, this short, dead-end street connects the rue Alexandre Cabanel and the rue Mario Nikis. Its name honors the Marshal of France, Ulrich Frederic Woldemar de Lowendal, who famously led the successful siege of Bergen op Zoom in the eighteenth century. While the name suggests a grand public space, this site functions as an understated example of early twentieth-century Parisian urban planning that provides a small, private passage between modern apartment blocks.
