Why is Place d’Andorre named after a country it is not in? It is a fair question. Place d’Andorre is a small square in Paris’s 16th arrondissement. It is named after the Principality of Andorra. The square got its name in 2005. This was due to the proximity of the Andorran Embassy. The embassy is located at number 1 Place d’Andorre. It is also at 51 Rue de Boulainvilliers.
Place d’Andorre is at the intersection of Rue de Boulainvilliers and Rue des Vignes. The RER C train serves the square. You can get off at the Gare de Boulainvilliers. The Metro line 9 also serves it. Get off at the La Muette station to arrive at Place d’Andorre.
The Gare de Boulainvilliers has an entrance on Place d’Andorre. This train station provides easy access to the square. Place d’Andorre might seem like just another Parisian square. But it represents the connection between France and Andorra. It is a symbol of international relations.
