A series of coordinated Islamist terrorist attacks took place on Friday, 13 November 2015 in Paris, France, and the cityâs northern suburb, Saint-Denis. Beginning at 21:16, three su***de bombers struck outside the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, during an international football match, after failing to gain entry to the stadium. Another group of attackers then fired on crowded cafĂ©s and restaurants in Paris, with one of them also detonating an explosive, killing himself in the process. A third group carried out another mass shooting and took hostages at a concert attended by 1,500 people in the Bataclan theatre, leading to a stand-off with police. The attackers were either shot or detonated su***de vests when police raided the theatre.
The attackers killed 137 innocent people.
An in the heart of the city, intended as a place of remembrance, a to these victims: this is how the memorial garden for November 13, 2015 was conceived, like a âgarden of remembranceâ (according to the City of Paris website). The landscaping recalls the six locations affected by the attacks: the Stade de France, Carillon and Petit Cambodge, Bonne BiĂšre and Casa Nostra, Belle Ăquipe, Comptoir Voltaire and, finally, the Bataclan. Plans for each of these six sites (eight bombing sites in all) make up the garden, which is generously planted to allow the general public to stroll through.
The project was designed by Wagon Landscaping, with the participation of victimsâ associations 130Onze15 FraternitĂ© et VĂ©ritĂ© and Life for Paris. A major place of remembrance.
