Discover the secrets of the Parisian landmark that everyone knows but few people experience: the Arc de Triomphe.

The world’s second-largest triumphal arch (at 51m) was commissioned by Napoleon Bonaparte аnd completed in the 1830s to commemorate French soldiers who fought during the Napoleonic Wars. It is located at the western end of the exclusive Avenue des Champs-Elysees, known for its shops, restaurants, and hotels.

Though walking around the arch is free, access to the museum and the impressive viewing terrace requires a ticket.
