Tours Société Générale

Société Générale Twin Towers are two office skyscrapers located in La Défense, a high-rise business district, and in Nanterre, France, west of Paris.

The towers were built and opened in 1995 to become the head office of the Société Générale, one of France's largest banking groups.

[1] Before the twin towers were constructed, Société Générale's headquarters were located in Paris.

The towers were the tallest skyscrapers built in La Défense since the Tour Total in 1985.

Despite the large office space available in the current twin towers, Société Générale needed yet more space and so it launched the construction of a third skyscraper, the 183 m (600 ft) tall Tour Granite, which stands immediately behind the twin towers and was opened in 2008.
