The Place de la République is a square in Paris, located on the border between the 3rd, 10th and 11th arrondissements. The monument was created by brothers Léopold and Charles Morice. Leopold executed the sculptural segments, while Charles executed the architectural segments. The monument was chosen as part of an art competition announced in early 1879 by the Paris City Council, which sought to create a "Monument to the French Republic" in honor of the 90th anniversary of the French Revolution, to be erected on the Place de la République.

You can reach the place via Metro lines 3, 5, 8, 9, and 11.
