The Arc de Triomphe was built in Paris’s Place
de l’Etoile to commemorate Napoleon’s military
victories. Construction began in 1806 and was
completed in 1836. The walls of the arch are
decorated with sculpture and relief carvings
depicting the battles of Napoleon’s armies.
Along with the Eiffel Tower, the arch is today one
of the best-known symbols of Paris.
