Directions

Place de la Concorde sits between the Tuileries Garden and Champs-Élysées in central Paris.

Place de la Concorde is one of the most important public squares in Paris, known for both its monumental setting and dramatic past. During the French Revolution, it became the site of public executions, giving the square a lasting place in French history. Today, its name and appearance reflect reconciliation rather than conflict. At the center stands the Luxor Obelisk, an ancient Egyptian monument and one of the oldest monuments in Paris. The square is also distinguished by its large fountains, statues, and grand urban layout, linking the Tuileries Garden with the Champs-Élysées. Place de la Concorde remains a powerful symbol of Parisian history, architecture, and ceremonial city planning.

Before you enter

  • Wear comfortable shoes; the square is large and best appreciated on foot.
  • Visit early or near sunset for better photos and a calmer atmosphere.
  • Check the weather forecast; the open square offers little shelter from wind or rain.
  • Plan to combine Place de la Concorde with the Tuileries Garden or Champs-Élysées.

What to expect

  • Expect a vast open square with heavy traffic moving around its edges.
  • The Luxor Obelisk is the main focal point in the center.
  • You will see monumental fountains, statues, and broad views across central Paris.
  • Sunset can offer especially striking views toward nearby landmarks and gardens.

During your visit

  • Use pedestrian crossings carefully; traffic around Place de la Concorde is constant.
  • Pause at the center and edges for different perspectives and photos.
  • Take time to look toward the Tuileries, Champs-Élysées, and surrounding architecture.
  • If visiting at dusk, stay alert and keep personal belongings secure.
