Make the most of Paris
Why visit the Arc de Triomphe?
- Architectural marvel: Measuring 164 ft in height and 148 ft in width, it follows a neo-classical design, partially inspired by the Roman Forum’s Arch of Titus. The most prominent highlights are the engraved names of fallen warriors and the Tomb of the Fallen Soldier.
- Spectacular view: Located right in the heart of Paris, visitors are treated to a splendid panoramic view of the city from the rooftop. Since the structure is seated in the middle of a plaza from where 12 avenues lead out, it lends the impression of a large star.
- Historical significance: Commissioned by Napoleon in 1806, the Arc de Triomphe honors those who fought and lost their lives in the French Revolutionary Wars and the Napoleonic Wars. The names of several French generals are inscribed on the monument. Beneath the Arch lies the Tomb of the Fallen Soldier from World War I.

Explore the Arc de Triomphe
Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
Inscriptions
Museum
Pillars
Since 11 November 1920, the Arc de Triomphe has housed the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. After deciding against honoring an anonymous soldier chosen at random in the Pantheon, the Chamber of Deputies voted unanimously for the burial of the Unknown Soldier at the Arc de Triomphe. 2 years after the burial, the idea of a Flame of Remembrance was met with enthusiastic approval which has never been extinguished since 1923.
The names of 158 battles fought by the French First Republic and the First French Empire are engraved on the attic and the inner facades under the grand arches. The names of 660 military leaders who served in the French Revolution Wars and the Napoleonic Wars are inscribed on the inner faces of the small arches. These inscriptions serve as a memorial to the many who lost their lives serving the country.
The Arc de Triomphe houses a small museum dedicated to the history and significance of the monument, located just below the observation deck. The museum displays historical exhibits, including artifacts, photographs, drawings, models of the arch, and information about the wards and the soldiers who lost their lives during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars.
Created between 1833 and 1836, each of the pillars is adorned by different sculpted groups. The Departure of the Volunteers by François Rude illustrates the conscription of 1792 when 200,000 men organized defense against foreign armies aligned against the revolutionaries; Napoleon's Triumph by Jean-Pierre Cortot signifies the expansion of the Napoleonic Empire in 1810; The Resistance by Antoine Etex symbolizes the nation's resistance to invasion in 1814; and The Peace by Antoine Etex constitutes the return of peace to France after the Treaty of Paris of 1815.

I loved the view and the museum. I wish the museum was more explanatory about the context in which the Arc was built. I LOVED the detailed explanations of the figures on the exterior friezes.

Had an early dinner here before seeing a show nearby. The open sandwiches are legit. Service was quick, but they forgot our water twice. Not a dealbreaker, just a bit annoying. Would def recommend for pre-theater eats.

My husband and I came for our anniversary and wow, what a treat. The staff made us feel so welcome, even brought a little candle on our dessert (unexpected and sweet). Had the set menu—salmon starter, cod main, tart for dessert. I’m still thinking about that tart. Pricey but honestly, worth every euro for the experience. Would recommend for something special.
