The square rené Viviani, named after the French Prime Minister during the First world war, a small. However, there are four attractions: black, fountain, rocks and the view.

Black pseudoacacia, modestly standing on the edge of the square, is the oldest tree of Paris, it is over four hundred years. Royal gardener Jean Robin put her in 1601. Botanist and Forester Jean Robin was the Royal gardener at three monarchs – Henry III, Henry IV and Louis XIII, cultivated rare species of plants. The tree which is now called by his name, was then to France exotic.

Four hundred years black looks good for his age. Wrinkled trunk was bent (it is supported by two concrete anchors), when shelling during the First world tree has lost the upper part of the crown, but it is alive and still blooms regularly every year.

The fountain appeared in the Park in 1995. Difficult to understand – that the right words to describe it. It is believed that the theme of the fountain – the life and death of Saint Julian the strannopriimtsa (square adjacent to the Church dedicated to this Saint, Saint-Julien-de-PWA). Saint Julian, in error who killed his parents, he dedicated his life to serving others and was forgiven, when warmed his body freezing leper.

Three pairs of figures on the edges of the fountain seem to indicate just that – support, compassion, and deer head recalls the details of the legends, which has acquired the life of a Saint (Flaubert wrote that Julian cursed he killed the deer). But what do the figures of children at the top, as if ascending into heaven? Here, in the square, there is a stele to the memory of those killed by the Nazis in Paris Jewish children. Child sculptor Georges Janko a whole year hiding with her family in the woods near Paris, to avoid deportation to the camp. The fountain of his work is clearly something more than a story about the fate of Julian.

The stones mentioned in the beginning, caught in the Park here and there. They were once parts of the external walls of Notre-Dame de Paris, they were removed when the partial restoration of the Cathedral in the nineteenth century and established here on the other side of the Seine. The garden is located on Quai Montebello, directly opposite the Cathedral, and the view of it, one of the best in the city – this is the fourth attraction. Can look to be a landmark? Yes, if it's on Notre Dame de Paris!
