Headquarters of the Communist Party
Overlooking the Colonel Fabien Square since 1971, the headquarters of the French Communist Party were designed by Brazil’s star architect Oscar Niemeyer.

Pierre Georges, then aged 22 and a member of the Communist youth section, became a leader of the French Resistance under the pseudonym Colonel Fabien.
