square du docteur Antoine-Béclère

The Jardinet du Docteur Antoine-Béclère is a small public garden tucked onto a central median where the Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Antoine meets the Rue Faidherbe. You can identify the space by the Fontaine de la Petite Halle, a stone structure built in seventeen nineteen that sits at its heart. Originally known as the Fontaine de Montreuil, this fountain was commissioned by Louis XV and features four arched faces and a central mask with a human face from which water flows.
