Batignolles, markets and contemporary architecture
17th district: Batignolles-Monceau
From Les Ternes to Les Batignolles, the 17th district changes from broad shopping avenues to quieter streets and newer green spaces. Martin-Luther-King Park can extend a Batignolles outing.
The four administrative quarters
- Ternes
- Plaine-de-Monceaux
- Batignolles
- Épinettes
These administrative names do not always match the informal areas used in everyday conversation.
Administrative area: approximately 5.67 km². This is an area measurement, not a walking distance. Official district dataset, source record dated 2026-10-06.
Choose gardens of two periods
Square des Batignolles and Martin-Luther-King Park make a useful pair of gardens from different periods. Farther west, Les Ternes offers a separate shopping walk that can continue towards Parc Monceau.
Avoid treating all the clusters as one small area
Choose the main cluster first. Garden access and market activity need separate checks; an extension is optional if your time or energy is limited.
