    Located on the Champs-Élysées, the Arc de Triomphe is an emblematic monument of Paris. Built on the orders of Napoleon in 1806, it pays homage to the Grande Armée by displaying the names of the battles won by the First Empire. The Arch is also home to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It is possible to go up to its terrace to enjoy a spectacular view of the most beautiful avenue in the world.

    Hiking

    An exclusive view over the Champs Elysées, one of the most beautiful avenues in the world.
    In 1806, Napoleon I ordered the construction of the Arc de Triomphe in honor of the Great Army. Inspired by the arches of antiquity, this emblematic monument collects 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 lit every night. From the terrace, you will be able to admire, both day and night, an exclusive view over the Champs-Elysées.

    Hiking

    The queue for the Arc de Triomphe is fast moving. So don't be put off. Entrance fee per adult: €13. A visit to the viewing terrace is worthwhile. The ascent over the numerous steps is certainly a bit tedious, but you will be rewarded with a wonderful view, especially of the Champs-Elysées shopping street. Inside the building there are numerous historical remains to admire.
