Lady Diana Memorial 🌹

The most well-known monument in Paris to Princess Diana is the Flame of Liberty. This gilded copper monument stands in Place Diana, near the northern end of the Pont de l’Alma. Although originally a gift to France as a symbol of Franco-American friendship, the flame has become an unofficial memorial to Princess Diana since her tragic death in 1997.

Pont de Alma is one of many bridge crossings in Paris and is also a memorial to Princess Diana, who died in a tunnel accident here in the summer of 1997. Since then, the golden flame symbol has been a focal point for tourists, who still lay flowers and texts on the marble field to express their grief. However, since the city does not like this, everything is regularly removed.
