The bascule bridge, built in 1885, is an interesting and impressive historical structure. 😄

From a technical standpoint, it is actually two parallel steel bridges, connected only by the raised central strip and supported by a shared pier structure. Each bridge consists of two box girders, the height of which decreases from the pier towards the riverbanks. The current bridge was built between 1974 and 1976 according to the plans of engineers Jean François Coste and Ch. Blanc. The old Zouave of the Pont de l’Alma was then re-erected in front of the pier. It is a stone figure over 5 meters high, depicting the troops of Napoleon III in the Crimean War of 1853–1856. The Zouave figure served as an unofficial high-water mark for the local population, based on the saying, "When the Seine reached their feet, the riverbanks were closed; when it reached their hips..."

Many padlocks 🔐 are hung on the bridge, and the keys 🔑 are then thrown into the Seine 💦. People then enjoy the view of the Eiffel Tower.

The Luxembourg Gardens in Paris are a delightful place for miniature boating! On the central pond, known as the “Grand Bassin,” you can rent small wooden sailboats and steer them with a wooden pole. This activity, called “Les Voiliers du Luxembourg,” is a historic tradition that has entertained children and adults for generations. ⛵

The garden covers an impressive 23 hectares and is a delight for those who love sculptures and fountains. There are two interesting fountains. The more famous of the two is the Fontaine de Medicis, a Baroque fountain designed in 1624. It is located on the northeast side of the park.

It was Maria de Medici who decided in 1612, after the assassination of her husband Henri IV, to convert this existing Hôtel into a palace, surrounded by a beautiful garden. As an Italian by birth, she longed to return to her Tuscan birthplace, but for political reasons this was not possible. So, on this spot, a wealth of luxury and tranquility was created and exchanged for her current home, the Louvre. It is said that this place reminded her too much of her husband with his numerous mistresses. After being purchased from the Duke of Luxembourg, the Hôtel and the enormous amount of land was renamed Palais de Medici, but after a serious quarrel with her son, Louis XIII, Maria was banished to Cologne where she died a lonely woman in 1642. She was soon forgotten and the Palais then gave its current name, Palais Luxembourg. All in all, the Parisians have her to thank for the creation of these beautiful gardens.

The Viaduc des Arts (Viaduct of the Arts) is a former railway viaduct near the Place de la Bastille in the 12th arrondissement of Paris. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viaduc_des_Arts?wprov=sfla1
