Tomb of Napoleon
Description
Napoléon Bonaparte died in exile on the Isle of St. Helena in 1821. In 1840 his remains were returned to France and a magnificent memorial was built between 1843-53 that now serves as his final resting place. Visitors can observe the giant sarcophagus. The layout has a total of five gigantic blocks. Along the walls is etched a chronicle of Napoleon's victories that add counter-point to the grandeur of the vault. Napoleon's Tomb sets in Les Invalides that was built by Louis XIV originally as a hospital for injured soldiers. On the grounds is also the Musée de l'Armée, the French war museum.
