Parc Monceau was first planted in 1783 by the order of the Duc d'Orléans and are the most pictureque gardens on the Right Bank. Previously a private garden, the Parc Monceau still retains some of its historic features, including a large pyramid and mock ruins.
Originally a tollhouse, the rotunda features large wrought-iron gates and was previously known as the Chartres Pavilion. Parc Monceau is possibly most famous for being the place where the world's first parachutist, André Garnerin, landed in 1797.
