It is named after the French Republic. The Métro station of République lies beneath the square. The location of the Place corresponds to the bastion of the gate of the Temple in the wall of Charles V (raised between 1356 and 1383). Decorated in 1811 with a fountain called the Château-d'Eau, designed by Pierre-Simon Girard, it took its current shape under the Second French Empire as part of Baron Hausmann's city renovation scheme. Most of the theatres of boulevard du Temple were demolished for this project. The "caserne" de Prince Eugène, a military barracks later named the caserne de la Château d'Eau, then the caserne Vérines, was erected by Degrove on this site, in 1854, to replace the former summer exhibition of Wauxhall and the famous diorama where Daguerre, one of the inventors of the photograph, had given his fifteen-minute demonstrations. Built with the foresight to house 3200 men, it has, since 1947, housed the French Republican Guard. Gabriel Davioud, Paris's official city architect, added to the square, building the Magasins réunis along its whole north side in 1866. He also built a second fountain, one decorated with bronze lions. (Girard's fountain was judged insufficient for the site, but it was salvaged and re-erected in 1867 in the market of La Villette). In 1879, a competition, to design a great monument devoted to the newly-proclaimed Third Republic, was won by the Morice brothers, Léopold Morice for the statuary and the plaques of historic scenes, and Charles Morice, his architect brother, for the base. Two inauguration ceremonies took place, the first on 14 July 1880 with a gypsum model, and the second on 14 July 1883 with the final version in bronze[ #26 of 30 Things To Do in Illkirch Palais Royal Strasbourg ~4.46 miles from Illkirch city center Hotels Close to Palais Royal #27 of 30 Things To Do in Illkirch Strasbourg Observatory Strasbourg ~4.55 miles from Illkirch city center Hotels Close to Strasbourg Observatory The Observatory of Strasbourg is an astronomical observatory in Strasbourg, France. Following the Franco-Prussian war of 1870–71, the city of Strasbourg became part of the German Empire. The University of Strasbourg was refounded in 1872 and a new observatory began construction in 1875. The main instrument was a 50 cm Repsold reflector, which saw first light in 1880. At the time this was the largest instrument in the German Empire. In 1881, the ninth General Assembly of the Astronomische Gesellschaft met in Strasbourg to mark the official inauguration. The observatory site was selected primarily for instruction purposes and political symbolism, rather than the observational qualities. It was a low-lying site that was prone to mists. During the period up until 1914, the staff was too small to work the instruments and so there was little academic research published prior to World War I. The main observations were of comets and variable stars. After 1909, the instruments were also used to observe binary stars and perform photometry of nebulae. The observatory is currently the home for the Centre de Données astronomiques de Strasbourg, a database for the collection and distribution of astronomical information. This includes SIMBAD, a reference database for astronomical objects, VizieR, an astronomical catalogue service and Aladin, an interactive sky atlas. The modern extension of the building houses the city's Planetarium (Planétarium de Strasbourg). The observatory is surrounded by the Jardin botanique de l'Université de Strasbourg. #28 of 30 Things To Do in Illkirch City Centre Strasbourg Strasbourg ~4.57 miles from Illkirch city center Hotels Close to City Centre Strasbourg #29 of 30 Things To Do in Illkirch Parc des Contades Strasbourg ~4.70 miles from Illkirch city center Hotels Close to Parc des Contades Built in 1870, this park makes up a number of parks and gardens in the city of Strasbourg.
