THE BLOWER BASIN
Bassin Soufflot fountain by Gabriel Davioud, with a remarkable bronze statue, a must-see in Paris.
The Bassin Soufflot, also known as the "Bassin Pastoral", is located at the junction of Rue Soufflot and Boulevard Saint-Michel. From this landmark, you have a view of the Panthéon and the Luxembourg Gardens. The work, enthroned in the middle of the crossroads, seems to rise triumphantly above the traffic. The fountain was created in 1862, when the Boulevard Saint-Michel was being built. It was designed by Gabriel Davioud, to which a charming bronze statue by George-Adolphe Crauk was added in 1884.
