The park is also accessible by public transport, with Line 11 stopping at Pyrenees Station, Line 2 at Couronnes Station, and Lines 11 & 2 at Belleville. The park is situated on Belleville Hill, a 108 meter high hill that was once the royal domain of the Merovingians.
History of the Site
Belleville Hill was once a vineyard where young sparkling wine, called "piquette," was produced. Mardi Gras, which was celebrated in Belleville until 1838, allowed for wild drinking and disorderly behavior, all under the disguise of costumes. Belleville Hill was the scene of a bloody battle on March 30, 1814 when 120,000 Russian soldiers set fire to Montreuil and La Villette. The opening of the gypsum mine in the 19th century attracted seasonal workers, who would return to their fields during the summer. The neighborhood was unhealthy after the quarry closed. It was completely restructured in the 20th Century with modern constructions.
Park Description
The park was designed jointly by Francois Debulois, landscape architect Michel Viollet and the landscape cooperative API. The park was opened in 1988. It is decorated with over 1,200 trees, shrubs and flowers, including oaks, beech, limes, chestnuts, walnuts, Virginia tulip trees, Judea trees, Mexican oranges, American Ash, soapberries, apple, catalpa and sophora. In memory of historical cultures, the park includes climbing, creeping, perennial plants, roses and Pinot Meunier grapevines. The park has a 100 meter long cascading water fountain, 1,000 square metres of public lawns, a children's playground with a wooden town, ping-pong table, and open-air theatre, as well as a play area for kids that includes a wooden village and ping-pong. Maison de l'air, the park's air-conditioned building, is currently closed.
