Square where there is a lot of hustle and bustle in the middle of the city - lots of small shops, cafes and restaurants

In honor of General Marceau, an obelisk-shaped column was inaugurated in Place Marceau (renamed the same day) on September 23, 1801 (the 5th anniversary of his death). The column was designed by Laurent Morin.
