1. 10ème Arrondissement Enfant Juifs / Tenth Arrondissement Jewish Children Marker
De 1942 à 1944, plus de 700 enfants juifs demeurant dans le 10ème arrondissement furent déportés dans les camps d'extermination. Parmi eux, 75 tout-petits furent arrachés à leur famille et sont morts sans sépulture. Afin d'honorer leur mémoire, une stèle leur a été dédiée dans ce jardin. L'accès aux squares, entre autres, avait été interdit aux Juifs par les autorités de Vichy aux ordres de l'occupant nazi.
Ne les oublions jamais.
