Square du Temple - Elie Wiesel

Beautiful and peaceful park. It is a shame, people don't look at the memorial sign for the Jewish children from Paris murdered by the Nazis between 1942-44.

Next to the cafes and gastronomic district Marche des Enfants Rouge is a small sunny garden where people have lunch - sunbathe and dance to the music in the summer.

I was walking around Paris looking for a Gifi store and I found this lovely little garden. It's a little oasis in the centre of Paris. There was a kids area for them to play, elderly people walking around and reading, loads of trees and green which was nice to see. There are benches if you want to sit back, eat and rest. If you want a break from capitalism, then come to this place 😊

Visited in June 2025. Lovely garden, great atmosphere, with a pavilion for performances and locals sketching in the park. Fun playground with sand for the kids!

Nice space in public area around the 3rd arrondissement of Paris City. Calm place to sitting down a bit after long walk. It’s right in front of the bus stop Square du Temple, near by walking distance to Musée des Arts et Metiers, and many restaurants there.

Lovely small park located at heart of temple. Went there to find people chilling and basking the sun on a Sunday evening. Has a small pond with ducks and a lot of benches

Really lovely small jardin that’s clearly used by the local community and special groups. Great place to have a little sit with a coffee and take in the environment. I didn’t see any rats but I know it’s an issue. A place I regularly head to when in town.

Wonderful Square in Paris, well maintained Low unhoused count!!

While missing the pomp, circumstance and crowds of Place de Vosges, Square du Temple is the perfect piece of urban green space for me. Located on Bretagne amidst shops, pretty homes and cafes, the small (!) slice of greenery offers a peaceful respite in the middle of a big city with one single, dramatic piece: a waterfall. There's a waterfall in the middle of Le Marais and it's incredible. How anyone could not get lost in the peace & quiet of the running water is beyond me. The waterfall empties into a still pool that's surrounded by vibrant flowers, a jungle gym for the little ones, a good amount of park benches, and a running trail. With powerful trees of impressive age (either the park's been here for a long time or the planners built around the trees), Square du Temple invites you in not from its opulence but with its honesty. While I walked around, sat and contemplated life, I saw a couple of handfuls of visitors. Some ran. Some walked hand in hand. A mother tended to her rambunctious boy. These were the scenes from Paris I was hopeful to take in during my visit. I had no idea they would occur in such a small setting... but I am so grateful they did. This park is worth your time, your peace and your quiet.
