The Place des Victoires has been given a circular shape to reproduce a solar disk, the emblem of Louis XIV

Place des Victoires is one of Paris's most elegant squares. This is certainly due to its round shape and the classical facades of the buildings that line it. Designed and built by Louis XIV's architect, Jules Hardouin-Mansart, it was inaugurated in 1686. Its aesthetics help to perpetuate the charm of this site, which served as a model for the design of squares in several French cities. The majestic equestrian statue of Louis XIV, by François-Joseph Bosio, dates from 1822.

Grand classique du centre de Paris, cette place circulaire est majestueuse. A voir si on est dans le quartier, ou à saisir comme prétexte pour faire un tour dans ce quartier très agréable. La place des Petits-Pères, juste derrière, et le jardin du Palais-Royal tout proche, méritent aussi d'être vus.

Jolie place aux boutiques chics . Une des banques est tout en bois et classée. À voir discrètement si on a un compte de cette banque pour un petit renseignement
Do not forget the church behind the place Notre Dame des victoires of Jesuitic style with its 35000ex-votos of thanks to the Virgin mary since 1835 and cénothaphe of Lully high on the 2nd chapel on the left of the entrance. Beautiful paintings of Van Loo around the chancel.
beautiful square, large and stylish with its beautiful private mansions and the equestrian statue of Louis XIV. but it is better to go there on foot: difficult parking! enjoy in to visit the Basilique Notre-Dame des Victories on the square of the small Fathers right behind!
