A little history ! The first traces of the Place Dauphine date back to 1462, when two separate islands stood in the middle of the Seine. In 1607, King Henri IV decided to unite them to create a triangular square at the tip of the Île de la Cité. Thirty-two identical houses were built, each with a small shop on the ground floor. Henri IV named this space in honor of his son, the Dauphin Louis XIII, born in 1601. A few years later, the name "Place Dauphine" was officially adopted.

CULTURE, ARCHITECTURE, DISCOVERY

The Place Dauphine becomes a place where past and present meet. The facades of the houses, witnesses to centuries gone by, stand with elegance. The shops, once bustling with local commerce, are now hidden treasures.

Under the reign of Henri IV, the Place Dauphine was a symbol of renewal and prosperity. Today, it continues to inspire, its cobblestones echoing the past while welcoming the present. The centuries-old chestnut trees provide shade to strollers, as the sun plays with the facades, creating a living painting.
