Denfert-Rochereau & the Lion of Belfort

The lively hub of the 14^th, where eight streets meet around Bartholdi's bronze Lion of Belfort — a smaller cousin of the great stone lion of Belfort. The square is the gateway to the Catacombs and the Musée de la Libération, and a busy crossroads of metro, RER and tram lines.
