Square Raoul Nordling honors a Swedish-French diplomat who played a pivotal role in the liberation of Paris during the Second World War. As the Swedish Consul General in the city, Nordling used his neutral status to negotiate directly with the German military commander, General Dietrich von Choltitz, while the city stood on the brink of absolute destruction.
