The Pompidou is a center of Art and Culture, designed by Gianfranco Franchini, Renzo Piano, Richard Rogers and Sue Rogers.
The different colors of the external piping of the Center Pompidou are differentiated according to their use: yellow lines for electricity, red for elevators and escalators, green for water, blue for air.
Inside the square is positioned one of the most extravagant fountains of Paris, also called "Fontaine des automates", which, realized in 1983 by Jean Tinguely and Niki de Saint Phalle, is composed of 16 colored aluminum sculptures that move thanks to the water jets.
