Why is this peaceful square named after a politician? Place Jacques Féron seems an unlikely place to honor a figure from the world of industry and politics. But Jacques Féron was no ordinary politician. He served as the mayor of this very district, the 19th arrondissement, from 1983 to 1994. Before his time in local government, he served as a member of the French National Assembly, representing Paris at different times between 1956 and 1997. The square that bears his name, Place Jacques Féron, is a testament to his legacy and a reminder of his dedication to the city and its people.
