Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel

  Built in 1808, the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel stands proudly at the western end of the Tuileries Gardens in Paris. This elegant triumphal arch, designed by architect Jean-Nicolas Huyot, commemorates Napoleon's military victories with its detailed sculptures and a prominent chariot atop. Positioned just a short walk from the iconic Louvre Museum, it serves as a gateway for visitors exploring the stunning gardens or heading towards the Place de la Concorde. In spring, the arch is set against a backdrop of blooming flowers, making it a picturesque stop for photos or a leisurely stroll. While there, you can admire its intricate artistry and take in views of the surrounding historical sites.
