Trocadéro

The Place du Trocadéro is located directly opposite the Eiffel Tower. Framed by the Trocadéro Palace, the square is home to several museums and cultural venues, an esplanade famous for its view of the Iron Lady, and gardens much appreciated by walkers.

Trocadéro was named after the Battle of Trocadéro, a victory for French monarchists over Spanish liberal revolutionaries in 1823. The large palace surrounding the square was built for the 1878Universal Exhibition, then replaced by the Palais de Chaillot for the 1937 Universal Exhibition.

The Place du Trocadéro will be the venue for the road cycling events (the road races), as well as the start of the 20-kilometer walk, which departs from the Pont d'Iéna. To get there, take lines 6 or 9 to the "Trocadéro" stop, or the RER C to the "Pont de l'Alma" stop.

Tennis fans are well acquainted with this stadium, which has been located on the edge of the Bois de Boulogne since 1927: every year, the Roland-Garros stadium sees its fair share of athletes and champions on its 18 courts. Named in tribute to aviator Roland Garros, who died in aerial combat during the First World War, this sports venue is served by several bus lines, as well as by metro lines 9 (Michel-Ange - Auteuil, Michel-Ange - Molitor and Porte de Saint-Cloud) and 10 (Michel-Ange - Auteuil, Michel-Ange - Molitor and Porte d'Auteuil).

Unsurprisingly, the stadium will host not only the tennis competitions, but also the final boxing matches during these Olympic and Paralympic Games.
