Origin of the name Champ-de-Mars

The location of Champ de Mars was formerly the site of fortifications for the young city's defense. They were demolished at the beginning of the 19th century soon after City Hall and the Palais de Justice were built. The site's name commemorates its former military purpose; Mars was the Roman god of war, and campus Martius was a Latin term for a military exercise ground.
