Parc de Bercy: gardens, lawns and free entry

Updated on October 8, 2026

Parc de Bercy is a public garden in the 12th arrondissement, laid out on the former wine warehouse site between the Seine and the Cinémathèque française. It combines three spaces: the Yitzhak Rabin garden in the centre, the romantic garden to the east and large lawns. Entry is free. For the history of the district and a full walk, see our Bercy guide.

Tips

Entry is free. Dogs are allowed, on a lead, only in the Yitzhak Rabin garden. The City of Paris lists no toilets in the park (checked in October 2026), so plan a stop beforehand. To extend your outing, Bercy Village and its former wine warehouses turned into shops and restaurants are close by.
