Setting 6: Place Edith Piaf
Setting
In 1978 the square at the intersection of Rue du Capitaine Ferber and Rue Belgrand was named in honour of Edith Piaf, a child of the
streets of Paris who began her singing career in the street. On 11 October 2003, 40 years to the day after her death, the newly refurbished square was inaugurated by Bertrand Delanoë, Mayor of Paris, who unveiled
a 1.75-metre bronze statue of the singer by Lisbeth Delisle. The square is just a few metres from the Hôpital Tenon, where Edith Giovanna Gassion – later Edith Piaf – was born in 1915.
