Page 4 Arc de Triomphe L’Arc de Triomphe Think of Paris and the Arc de Triomphe will spring to mind as one of its most significant commemorative monuments. The beautiful neoclassical arch was ordered in 1806 by Napoleon and designed by the architect Jean Chalgrin to honor those who fought and died for France in the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars.
Page 5 Champs-Elysées Les Champs-Elysées One of the world’s most beautiful and famous boulevards, the Champs-Elysées is synonymous with all that is glamorous and grand about Paris; luxury shops, cafes and theaters. Running almost 1.25 miles (2 kilometers) through the 8th arrondissement, it initially was an extension of the Tuilleries Gardens leading to the palace at Versailles, opened by Louis XIV in 1667, a date that many consider to be the birth of Paris as a grand city.
Page 6 Tour Montparnasse La tour Montparnasse This 688.9 ft. (210m) monolithic skyscraper is located in the Montparnasse area of Paris. Designed by the architects Eugène Beaudouin, Urbain Cassan, and Louis de Hoÿm de Marien, it was built by Campenon Bernard. It was the tallest tower until 2011 when the Tour First surpassed it.
Page 7 Grand Palais Le Grand Palais The Grand Palais des Champs-Elysées was built in 1897 in preparation for the Universal Exposition of 1900 and is now a historical site, exhibition hall and museum complex. Its original purpose was to be the home of great artistic events in the city of Paris.
Page 8 Eiffel Tower La tour Eiffel Nothing represents Paris more than the iconic Tour Eiffel, or Eiffel Tower. Built between 1887-1889, it is named after the engineer Gustav Eiffel, who designed and built the wrought iron structure. The actual design of the tower was by Maurice Koechlin and Émile Nouguier, who worked for Eiffel at the time, together with architect Stephen Sauvestre, and was inspired by the Latting Observatory in New York.
Page 9 Musée du Louvre The Musée du Louvre opened in 1793, during the French Revolution, and from the very beginning was intended to provide inspiration for contemporary art. As a former royal residence, the Louvre is inextricably linked to eight centuries of French history.
