A short guide about Arc de Triomphe

When touring Paris – one must be sure to take time out to visit the Arc de Triomphe; a monument in the city of Paris; that stands in the centre of the Place Charles de Gaulle, also known as the Place de l'Etoile. It is at the western end of the Champs-Elysees. The triumphal arch honours those who fought for France, particularly during the Napoleonic Wars. On the inside and the top of the arc there are all of the names of generals and wars fought. Underneath is the tomb of the Unknown Soldier from World War I.

The Arc is the linchpin of the historic axis – a sequence of monuments and grand thoroughfares on a route which goes from the courtyard of the Louvre Palace to the outskirts of Paris. The monument was designed by Jean Chalgrin in 1806, and its Iconographic program pitted heroically nude French youths against bearded Germanic warriors in chain mail and set the tone for public monuments, with triumphant nationalistic messages, until World War I.

The monument stands 49.5m in height, 45m wide and 22m deep. It is the second largest triumphal arch in existence. Its design was inspired by the Roman Arch of Titus. The Arc de Triomphe is so colossal that three weeks after the Paris victory parade in 1919, marking the end of hostilities in World War I, Charles Godefroy flew his Nieuport biplane through it, with the event captured in a newsreel.

Tourabout has catalogued a range of vacation packages to the Arc de Triomphe monument in Paris, France – where you can explore the City of Light. Go sightseeing with a local guide to see such attractions as the Arc de Triomphe, followed by the Louvre, and the famous Champs-Elys and the Eiffel Tower.
