Such a gorgeous fountain! The setting all around is so beautiful even in winter. Get up close to the fountain to really admire it and check out the backside even if it isn’t quite as impressive… still worth seeing the entire fountain! 🧡

My favorite place in Paris, it’s so quiet and peaceful, perfect to read a book with a nice take away coffee!

The fountain looks beautiful. It was winter and cold. I bet it will be better in springs.

The Medici Fountain is a very historical fountain that was designed like a grotto reminiscent of one in the Boboli Gardens in Italy where Marie de Medici grew up, and she had this commissioned for the Jardin du Luxembourg when her palace was constructed, meaning it dates from the 1600s, even though it has been altered since with a different stretch of water with it and other statues. Beginnings of the Fountain Medici It all starts with Marie de Medici who was the widow of King Henri IV and regent for King Louis XIII, who at the time was not happy living at The Louvre and wanted her own palace in Paris constructed in an Italian style that would remind her of where she grew up within the Palazzo Pitti in Florence Italy.
