The park's grounds were once a gypsum quarry. The rock has now become crumbly. In 2022, the central rock island with the Temple of Sibyl and the two bridges was closed off. However, no reinforcement measures are visible yet.

The rocky island with the Sibyl Temple has been closed since 2022, as have the two bridges leading to it. The brittle rock has since been checked for changes, but no measures have been taken to secure it. The brittle Drachenfels near Bonn is fixed every 20 years with new supports made of steel and concrete.

Background: The area was originally a barren gypsum quarry and even a landfill. It was transformed into an artificial mountain landscape under Napoleon III for the 1867 World's Fair. Architecture & Design: The park is an engineering masterpiece. Steep rocks, a 30-meter-high grotto, and an artificial waterfall were created with dynamite to simulate an "alpine" wilderness in the middle of the city. Landmarks: Temple de la Sibylle: A small circular temple perched on a 30-meter-high rocky island, offering a great view of Sacré-Cœur. Hanging bridge: A 63-meter-long bridge leading to the rocky island, designed by Gustave Eiffel. Special feature: In contrast to many other Parisian parks, you are allowed to sit and picnic on the lawn almost everywhere here. It is extremely hilly and is considered one of the most romantic places in the city.
