Premium Series ARC DE TRIOMPHE
Located on the right bank of the Seine at the centre of a dodecagonal configuration of twelve radiating avenues.

Laying the foundations alone took two years and, in 1810, when Napoleon entered Paris from the west with his bride Archduchess Marie-Louise of Austria, he had a wooden mock-up of the completed arch constructed.
