The Obelisk dedicated to Napoleon Napoleon was inaugurated on April 12, 1804.
It is located at the entrance to the village of Monginevro (Italy side) and its history is linked to the construction of the road to the pass.
The obelisk was destroyed with explosives in 1835 by the Piedmontese and rebuilt by the architect Giuseppe Andreoli under King Louis Philippe.
The original marble commemorative plaques, also destroyed, have been replaced by bronze plaques, engraved in four languages: French, Italian, Spanish and Latin, where you can read the homage paid to Napoleon Bonaparte and the prefect Ladoucette.
