As at the end of each year, Tales and Stories are back at Monuments Nationaux during the Christmas vacations, and in particular at theArc de Triomphe, on Thursday January 4 and Friday January 5, 2024.
This is your chance to (re)discover this historic national monument, which has stood the test of time and history, with your family. Built under Napoleon 1st, from 1806 to 1836, the Arc de Triomphe is a reference to theArch of Titus in Rome. It took thirty years to build, with work suspended several times, and Napoleon 1st never even saw the monument completed. Finally, it was Louis-Philippe 1st, King of the French in 1836 (after the First Empire, the return to Monarchy...) who saw theArc de Triomphe before his eyes for the first time. On the façade of the arch, the names of decisive battles and important generals are engraved in stone.
For the2023 edition of Contes et Histoires, we invite you to discover this monument steeped in history (and emblematic of Paris) duringan original storytelling tour, to be enjoyed by the whole family!
