Place de l’Hôtel de Ville

Place de l’Hôtel de Ville
75004 Paris
Métro : Hôtel de Ville.

Though it was called the Place de Grève (Strike Square), the Place de l’Hôtel de Ville (City Hall Square) was mostly used for public executions. Today, it is open on all sides and is strictly a pedestrian zone. It is around this square that the city installs an artificial beach during the summer months for the “Paris Beach” event.
