Luxembourg Garden

The Luxembourg Garden (Jardin du Luxembourg, familiar nickname Luco) is a 224,500 m² public park in the 6th arrondissement of Paris, France. It is the garden of the French Senate, which is itself housed in the Luxembourg Palace.

The garden is enjoyable for its calm. On the little pond children play with miniature boats. The garden contains various statues and sculptures.

The École nationale supérieure des Mines de Paris and the Odéon theater stand next to the Luxembourg Garden.

Opening hours depend on the month: opening between 7:30 and 8:15 am; closing between 4:45 and 9:45 pm.
