Real Traveler reviews for Jardin du Luxembourg (Le)

More information on Jardin du Luxembourg (Le)

The ground on which the Jardin du Luxembourg and the Palais du Luxembourg (Le) stand was originally the site of a Roman camp. In 1257 the Chartreux religious order bought the land and built a monastery here and later princess regent Marie de Médicis had the palace built in 1615. This is one of Paris' favourite gardens. Sensitively and very prettily laid out, it is wonderfully popular with students and residents in Paris' Latin Quarter. Children can go on pony rides, play on swings and sail their toy boats on the octagonal pond. A much-loved and popular meeting place. Admission: Free

Directions

métro: Odéon. RER: Luxembourg
