Les Invalides
Les Invalides is a complex of buildings containing museums and monuments related to France's military history, a hospital and a retirement home for war veterans, and the burial site for some of France's war heroes, located in Paris. This project was initiated by Louis XIV in 1670, as a home and hospital for aged and unwell soldiers. You will see great examples of Baroque architecture, and the tomb of Napoleon Bonaparte, among its many interesting sights.
I'm interested in using this photo on our site. I'm a writer and editor for an online destination guide. If you could contact me that would be great! I look forward to hearing from you.
