Jardin du Luxembourg, or Luxembourg Gardens, was created as part of the grounds for the Luxembourg Palace, the new residence of Marie de' Medici, widow of Henry IV. She had the famous Medici Fountain installed in 1620 on the 23 hectares of land, as well as the renowned promenades, lawns, and flowerbeds that run along prominent statues. The Luxembourg Palace is modeled after the Palazzo Pitti in Florence, Italy, where Marie de' Medici was from. |
