The Tuileries Garden is a public garden separating the Louvre Museum from Place de la Concorde in central Paris. It was commissioned in the mid-16th century by Catherine de Medici as a garden for the Palais des Tuileries. At the eastern end, you’ll find the Jardin du Carrousel. The Carrousel is decorated by sculptures and the monumental Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel. West of this section is the Grand Carré, a garden with decorative ponds and antiquity-themed statues. Further inwards, it is the Grand Couvert. Closer to Place de la Concorde, at the western end of the Tuileries are the octagonal basin, four works by artists Auguste Rodin, and the Musée de l’Orangerie.
