Book and rent a parking space in Vincennes

Vincennes is a dynamic town located east of Paris, known for its rich historical heritage, its green spaces and its cultural facilities.

Château de Vincennes

This medieval fortress, whose construction began in the 14th century, is among the largest royal castles still standing in France. The keep, more than 50 m high, was a royal residence until Louis XIV, then housed prisoners such as Fouquet or the Marquis de Sade. It now hosts the Defence Historical Service, following a restoration started in 1988.

Sainte-Chapelle de Vincennes

Adjacent to the castle, the Sainte-Chapelle is a Gothic masterpiece built in the 16th century. It was restored in the 2000s and is listed as a historic monument.

Paris Zoological Park (Vincennes Zoo)

Opened in 1934 and located in the Bois de Vincennes, this zoo covers approximately 14.5 ha. It hosts nearly 3,300 animals spread across five biozones (Africa, Amazon-Guiana, Europe, Madagascar, Patagonia), and is famous for the 65 m "Grand Rocher".

Bois de Vincennes and Tropical Garden

On the edge of the town, the Bois de Vincennes offers 995 ha of green space, including Lake Daumesnil, cycle paths and leisure areas. The Tropical Agronomy Garden, accessible to the north, features remains of the 1907 colonial exhibition and mixed tropical and local vegetation.

Town Hall and historic centre

The town hall, mixing Neo-Renaissance and Art Deco styles, dates from the 19th and 20th centuries. It is listed as a historic monument for its façades, sections and interior decorations. The centre also features 19th-century buildings of interest, squares and a cultural media library.
