The Fountain of the Innocents in Paris, a superb Renaissance building
The Fountain of the Innocents is a superb Renaissance building, designed by architect Pierre Lescot and sculptor Jean Goujon in 1549. After many trials and tribulations, it was installed on this square, which was then dedicated to a market, but this was later removed to make way for the new halles (covered market). The fountain was then moved to the center of the square. It still stands proudly today, and is one of Parisians' favorite meeting places.

C'est un endroit chargé de mémoire très agréable car ancien cimetière. La fontaine est vraiment jolie. Il serait dommage de passer à côté

très belle fontaine en plein centre de Paris. RER les Halles. Cette fontaine est située à la place d'un ancien cimetière. Les ossements ont été déménage dans les catacombe place Denfert Rocherau.
