Do you see the stars? In the heart of Courbevoie, at the Place des Pléiades, we are not in a starlit sky, but the stars are still there. More precisely: the namesake of the Place des Pléiades is the constellation: the Pleiades. There is a historical reason for this celestial reference. You see, this place is named after the seven daughters of Atlas, who were transformed into stars by Zeus, who protected them from the continuous pursuit of the mighty hunter Orion. Zeus did an amazing job with those stars – they are still visible even today, shining brightly up in the night sky, with millions of other stars – but also, in the most improbable of places: in the heart of Courbevoie, a suburb of Paris. Their story is an ancient one, but one that still survives today, not just in the constellations, but in this place, right here in front of you. The Place des Pléiades is a vibrant, lively place that is home to various businesses. The name serves a reminder of the stories that connect us to the sky and to the past, and the stories that make this place special. The Place des Pléiades is a place of history, culture, and community. It is a place to enjoy, to explore, and to be inspired.
