Place Vendome is the debut album of the hard rock project Place Vendome. The songwriting for this album was provided by Dennis Ward (Pink Cream 69), with further contributions from David Readman and Alfred Koffler.[4]

The album received very positive reviews and was hailed as vocalist's Michael Kiske's glorious return to a heavier rock sound, since his exit from the German power metal band Helloween in 1993.[5][6]

It was released in 10 October 2005 with cover art credited to Carl André Beckston.
