The Luxor Obelisks are a pair of ancient Egyptian obelisks, over 3,000 years old, carved to stand either side of the portal of the Luxor Temple in the reign of Ramesses II. The right-hand stone, 23 metres high, was moved in the 1830s to the Place de la Concorde in Paris, France, while the left-hand obelisk remains in its location in Egypt.
