If you want to run like a Âé¶¹APPian, suit up in your best jogging gear\u2014many dress as extensively for jogging as they do for a stroll in the park\u2014and join the pack circling the park in unison. The path tracing the outer edge of the park makes a loop of one kilometer, where runners rule, particularly on weekends and around midday. I felt out of place walking on this loop, forced to the edges to avoid the purposeful lunchtime <em>joggeurs<\/em>. Having trouble avoiding them while pausing and weaving around the path to check out the ruins and the plants, I fled as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>I needn\u2019t have worried, however, as you can easily escape the domain of the fit if you aren\u2019t in the mood for <em>jogging<\/em> (yes, they use the same word. Just put on your best French accent). As it was for many a great 19<sup>th<\/sup> century artist\u2014Marcel Proust, Emile Zola, or Claude Monet, to name a few\u2014the inner paths of Parc Monceau will be quiet enough for an easy amble through the odd collection of ruins arranged haphazardly among the plants. Some of these ruins date to the origins of the park in the 1770s.<\/p>\n<h4>An Aristocratic Playground<\/h4>\n<p>At this time before the Revolution, what is now Parc Monceau stood outside Âé¶¹APP. Rather than the lush Haussmanian hotels and private residences, it was a lush forestland owned by the duc de Chartres, Louis-Philippe-Joseph d\u2019Orl\u00e9ans. An aristocratic libertine and one of the richest men in France, the duc de Chartres commissioned the garden as a private getaway for the well-to-do.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15720\" style=\"width: 934px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15720\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/carmontelles-parc-monceau-wiki-commons.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"924\" height=\"616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/carmontelles-parc-monceau-wiki-commons.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/carmontelles-parc-monceau-wiki-commons-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/carmontelles-parc-monceau-wiki-commons-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/carmontelles-parc-monceau-wiki-commons-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/carmontelles-parc-monceau-wiki-commons-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 924px) 100vw, 924px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15720\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Carmontelle&#8217;s Parc Monceau &#8211; Wiki Commons<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Near the town of Monceau, the duc\u2019s designer&#8211;a painter named Carmontelle&#8211;incorporated over eighty incongruous ruins.

One suggested theory involves the duc\u2019s role as Grand Master of the Freemasons, a universalist Christian cult whose leadership, at least in part, described Âé¶¹APP as a new Jerusalem. The arrangement of the ruins would have carried a secret mystical significance, available only to the initiated visitors. The theory remains a theory, with one of the article\u2019s strongest statements explaining that \u201cCarmontelle must have thought carefully about the duke\u2019s involvement with freemasonry\u201d<a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\">[i]<\/a> in the development of his design.<\/p>\n<p>Still, having no knowledge of the park\u2019s bizarre history on my first visit, the assortment of run-down structures seemed merely confusing, as if some aristocrat had merely run out of space in their private collection. Now, it\u2019s still strange, but fun as well to think of the park\u2019s early visitors deriving some mystical significance from the place as they escaped from the city to let their hair down (so to speak).

In the decade preceding the revolution, authorities constructed a wall surrounding Âé¶¹APP, called <em>le Mur des Fermiers G\u00e9n\u00e9raux<\/em>. This wall bordered the northern edge of Parc Monceau, and its purpose was to regulate entry into the city for the collection of taxes.<\/p>\n<p>There were several designated points of entry, including one opening onto the park. The old entry into Âé¶¹APP now serves as an entry into Parc Monceau, where you\u2019ll see a round structure surrounded by columns. I supposed it might be an old temple replica, such as you can find at Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, but no\u2014originally a tax-collecting station, it is now a grandiose public toilet.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15784\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15784\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15784\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/la-rotonde-de-parc-monceau-gregory-deryckere-wiki-commons.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/la-rotonde-de-parc-monceau-gregory-deryckere-wiki-commons.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/la-rotonde-de-parc-monceau-gregory-deryckere-wiki-commons-300x240.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15784\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>La Rotonde de Parc Monceau &#8211; Gregory Derycke\u0300re &#8211; Wiki Commons<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Several of these stations still stand around Âé¶¹APP, including the Rotonde de la Villette, the Barri\u00e8re du Tr\u00f4ne and the Barri\u00e8re d\u2019Enfer (barrier of hell).

Without the original owner, the restoration monarchy returned the park to the Orl\u00e9ans family in 1814.

Mus\u00e9e Cernuschi, built by politician and economist Henry Cernuschi and given to the city of Âé¶¹APP in 1898, hosts an extensive collection of Asian art.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s an enchanted wonderland (sure!), a metaphor for evil (why not?), an aristocratic libertine playground (No no. Âé¶¹APPian amorous freedom does have limits, although people sometimes make you wonder); a running loop, picnic spot, or simply an easy stroll, Parc Monceau and its history rich as the city\u2019s itself have much to offer the imagination.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there\u2019s plenty more to be discovered in Parc Monceau. I haven\u2019t even mentioned half the busts and statues, the artificial rocky outcropping covered in closely maintained flowers, the cute bridge overlooking the Naumachia, the carousel, and countless other old ruins which promise a winding history of their own.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15788\" style=\"width: 2058px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15788\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15788\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/arch-in-parc-monceau-celette-wiki-commons.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/arch-in-parc-monceau-celette-wiki-commons.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/arch-in-parc-monceau-celette-wiki-commons-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/arch-in-parc-monceau-celette-wiki-commons-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/arch-in-parc-monceau-celette-wiki-commons-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/arch-in-parc-monceau-celette-wiki-commons-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15788\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Arch in Parc Monceau &#8211; Celette &#8211; Wiki Commons<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\">[i]<\/a> Hays, David. &#8220;Carmontelle&#8217;s Design for the Jardin De Monceau: A Freemasonic Garden in Late-Eighteenth-Century France.&#8221;\u00a0<em>Eighteenth-Century Studies<\/em>\u00a032, no. 4 (1999): 447-62.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#_ednref2\" name=\"_edn2\">[ii]<\/a> Disponzio, Joseph. &#8220;Parc Monceau: An Appreciation.&#8221;\u00a0<em>SiteLINES: A Journal of Place<\/em>\u00a012, no. 2 (2017): 12-15.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"disco-4158373373\" class=\"disco-amazon-box-2024 disco-entity-placement\"><div style=\"width: 100%; border: 2px solid lightgray; padding: 3% 6% 3% 3%; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Planning a trip to Âé¶¹APP ?
