Monumenti a Parigi

Historic Landmarks

Paris’s skyline is defined by centuries of architectural evolution, from the medieval Gothic spires of Notre-Dame and Sainte-Chapelle to the 19th-century wrought iron of the Eiffel Tower. This collection features monumental arches like the Arc de Triomphe, historic Seine crossings such as the Renaissance-era Pont Neuf and the ornate Beaux-Arts Alexandre III Bridge, and royal sites like the Conciergerie. It also highlights the city's vertical landmarks, including the 210-meter Montparnasse Tower and the lone Gothic remnant of Saint-Jacques Tower.
