The Place Colette is a square in the 1st arrondissement of Paris, France.
The square is bordered to the north and east by wings of the Palais-Royal (containing, to the north, the Comédie-Française and to the east, the Conseil d'État), to the south by the Rue Saint-Honoré and to the west by the Rue de Richelieu.[1]
An entrance to the Palais Royal–Musée du Louvre Métro station, serving lines
