A unique view of the Champs Élysées, the most beautiful avenue in the world.
In 1806, Napoleon I ordered the construction of the Arc de Triomphe in honour of the Grande Armée. Inspired by the ancient arches, this emblematic monument bears the names of the battles and generals of the Revolution and the First Empire. It houses the tomb of the Unknown Soldier whose flame is rekindled every evening. The Arc de Triomphe museum allows you to explore its history and understand the meaning of the sculptures that adorn its facades. Located on the top level, the panoramic terrace offers a unique view of Paris, day and night.
