- 🏰Background: The Arc de Triomphe, located at the center of Place Charles de Gaulle (also known as Place de l'Étoile) in Paris, is the largest triumphal arch in the world. It is one of the four major landmarks of Paris, alongside the La tour eiffel, the Louvre Museum, and Notre-Dame Cathedral. The Arc was commissioned by Napoleon in 1806 to commemorate his victory over the Russian and Austrian armies in 1805. Construction halted after Napoleon's fall but resumed during the Bourbon Restoration, with the monument finally completed in 1836. The Arc features the names of 386 generals and 96 victorious battles from Napoleon's campaigns inscribed within its doors. It stands at the center of 12 radiating avenues, making it a model of urban design in European cities.
