More information

Explore the natural vegetation and classical elegance of the 16th-century Tuileries Gardens, nestled in the centre of the French capital.

History

As the very first public park in Paris, established by Queen Catherine de Medici in 1564, the Tuileries Garden began as part of the later destroyed Tuileries Palace. Once a meeting point of high society and the location of lavish parties, today it's one of the most visited and beloved public parks in the city.

What to see

Among the sites to see in the Tuileries Garden are the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, dating back to 1809, and the Orangerie Museum. Given the garden's central location, it's a short walk from a number of the city's key landmarks, including the Louvre Museum, the obelisk of Place de la Concorde, and the Madeleine church.

Special events and when to visit

The Tuileries Gardens in Paris often host special events throughout the year, particularly during the warmer months. Some of these events include art exhibitions, concerts, outdoor film screenings, and seasonal festivals.

To experience these special events at the Tuileries Gardens, it's best to visit during the spring and summer months when the weather is more conducive to outdoor activities. Events may be more frequent during these seasons, and the gardens themselves are in full bloom, creating a picturesque backdrop for any occasion.
