The Original – the Arc de Triomphe in Paris
The Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile, or Arc de Triomphe for short, stands at the center of Place Charles de Gaulle at the western end of the Champs-Élysées and is one of Europe’s most famous monuments. It was commissioned in 1806 by Napoleon Bonaparte to honor the victories of the French armies in the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. It was not completed until 1836 – Napoleon did not live to see its completion. The structure is 49.5 meters high and 44.8 meters wide. The names of 558 French generals and 128 battles are engraved on its inner surfaces. Beneath the arch lies the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier from World War I, where an Eternal Flame has burned since 1923. The Neoclassical building, designed by Jean-François Chalgrin, is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
