From the Eiffel Tower to the Parc André Citroën.

Starting station of the walk. It is the closest station to the Eiffel Tower.

The Vel d'hiv, which no longer exists, was located in the neighborhood and a monument was built in memory of the victims. On July 16, 1942, 13,152 people including 9,000 adults were arrested. Single people and couples without children were sent to the Drancy camp. The families were locked up in the Vel d'hiv before being sent to camps. None of the children returned.

The Grenelles bridge is a bridge for cars and the metro.

Beautiful shaded alley dating from 1825 located on an island in the middle of the Seine.

Replica of the Statue of Liberty in bronze, a gift from the Parisian colony of the United States. It is 9 meters high.

We go along the front of the Seine where the architecture is more contemporary with its large buildings.

The park is a recent creation, dating from 1992.

The site has long been an industrial site. In 1915 André Citroën opened an ammunition factory and then, when peace returned, he converted the factory into a car factory. The site closed its doors in 1974. It is here that the greatest Citroën cars of the time were designed and built (traction, DS, SM...)

In 1778 the site was already dedicated to aerostats with hydrogen-filled balloons. Today there remains this balloon intended to make discover Paris with the visitors. Note the flag and the lights on the balloon which indicate the quality of the air.

The park is not very big and it is very pleasant.

Beautiful water jets. It's hard to resist the temptation to cool off a bit in summer. The children take advantage of it.

End of the walk at the Balard station.
