À propos du lieu

Cirque Jules Verne

Place Longueville, 80000 Amiens, France

Somme

Hauts-de-France

The municipal cirque of Amiens is built on the site of the former bastion of Longueville, which commanded the fortified belt in the south of the city. This one is destroyed in 1845 to allow the development of the railway and the construction of the bourgeois district of Henriville where Jules Verne was supposed to reside. A wooden circus (probably as large as the current one) was built in place Longueville around 1874-1875\. In 1887, the construction of a permanent building was decided, responding to a general enthusiasm for circus and fairground arts. Jules Verne, then a municipal councillor, is a fierce defender of the project, whose inauguration he honors with a great speech on 23 June 1889\. Designed by the architect Émile Ricquier, this 16-sided polygonal building is inspired by the Parisian creations of Jacques Hittorff (summer circus in 1841 and winter circus in 1852).
