Place Cachée was the wizarding section of Paris, France. It was accessed through a Magical Bronze Statue in the Montmartre district of the city.^[2]^[3]

Entrance

The statue to access Place Cachée was located at the juncture of Rue Richer and Rue Girardon. Both streets and Boulevard Voltaire were known to be part of Place Cachée and therefore the location of several wizarding shops and similar.

In 1927, the Circus Arcanus toured the Rue Girardon and displayed various spectacles.^[2]
