Notre-Dame de Paris is a historic landmark that is being restored.

One of the most iconic landmarks in Paris is Notre Dame, which came to fame through its appearance in countless works of art, literature and cinema.

The cathedral stands on sacred ground and has been a symbol of the city since it was built.

Ile de la Cite, or City Island, is the very centre of Paris and where the Battle of Lutetia was fought in 52BC.

A Roman Palace once stood on this land, featuring several altars and temples.

Unfortunately, much of its archaeological history has been lost.

The design of Notre Dame features the golden ratio, a favourite inclusion in architecture and art, known to reflect true perfection.

The western facade of the cathedral shows this ratio through its height, width and positioning of windows.

At present, Notre Dame is closed to the public following a devastating fire in 2019 that destroyed its spire but you can learn about the rebuilding of Notre Dame on this intriguing virtual reality tour.

The French government is currently raising money to restore the cathedral to its former glory.

Notre Dame was built between 1163 and 1345.

The July Column in Place de la Bastille is an instantly recognisable landmark of Paris.

Another of Paris’ reminders of the French Revolution is Place de la Bastille.

The Bastille was completely destroyed, and only the area it covered remained.

The square is centred by the July Column, a monument that commemorates the July Revolution of 1830.

The square is filled with open-air markets twice a week, and it is dotted with pleasant cafes and restaurants.

After the destruction of the Bastille, the square became a location to celebrate liberty, and many curiosities were erected there.

One such curiosity included a 24m (78ft) high elephant monument cast from bronze.

The monument was given immortality in Victor Hugo’s novel Les Miserables but was sadly demolished during the 1840s.

Place de la Bastille dates back to the 14th century and is at Place de la Bastille, 75011.

La Conciergerie became a key prison where those who were due to be executed were kept.

6- The Louvre

The Louvre is arguably one of the most important museums globally, housing everything from famous paintings, sculptures and archeological finds.

The Louvre, despite its grandeur and popular appeal, does have a dark history.

During WWII, the Nazis used the museum to house stolen art from homes and businesses they raided and destroyed.

The Louvre was a gigantic storeroom for everything they collected, and a display in 2018 showcased the stolen art.

It was originally built in 1546 on the site of a 12th-century fortress and its first use was as the palace of King Francis I.

Did you know there’s a Pantheon in Paris, a historic landmark modelled after the one in Rome.

Pantheon, translating to ‘temple to all the gods’, is in the Latin Quarter of Paris.

Jacques-Germain Soufflot designed the Pantheon, which was built between 1758 and 1790 on orders of King Louis XV.

Pantheon was originally built as a church dedicated to Saint Genevive, the patron saint of Paris.

Following the French Revolution, however, the church was transformed into a mausoleum to house the remains of distinguished French citizens.

The remodelled design was heavily inspired by the Pantheon in Rome.

In total, there are the remains of 81 people inside the Pantheon, with the majority interred during Napoleon’s reign of the First French Empire.

Pantheon is at Pl. du Pantheon, 75005, Paris.

Historic Landmarks in Paris – 19th Century

11- Catacombs

A Parisian landmark for the brave, the Paris Catacombs is a dark labyrinth of bone beneath the streets of the City of Lights.

The catacombs are 20m (65ft) underground and were created during the 18th century when disease was rife.

The cause was the cities cemeteries, and authorities decided to move the bones of the deceased into a labyrinth of 15th-century quarry tunnels to Montrouge, outside of the centre of Paris.

The bones were moved under the cloak of darkness to avoid protests from the church and were piled high inside the tunnels.

Hericart de Thury decided to rearrange the bones in a more decorative, respectful and interesting manner in 1809, and so the Catacombs we know today were born.

Catacombs is at 1 Avenue du Colonel Henri Rol-Tanguy, 75014. Skip the line with this Paris Catacombs Tour offering VIP access to restricted areas.

12- Arc de Triomphe

Arc de Triomphe landmarks of paris at night
Arc de Triomphe is a classic Paris monument that has stood the test of time.

At the top of the Champs-Elysees, the Arc De Triomphe is a symbol honouring the countries military achievements both centuries ago and more recently in wars post-1900.

The land given to the Arc de Triomphe was originally planned to be given to a more unusual structure.

Charles Robert, a French architect, had plans sketched to construct a three-story elephant that would stand proudly as a landmark in Paris.

The elephant would feature staircases from the ground where people could see views over the city.

Sadly, authorities denied permission for the gigantic creature, and the Arc was built in its place.

The Arc is uniquely carved, and each of the four pillars tells four different stories of French history by four different sculptors.

It was built between 1806 and 1836.

Arc de Triomphe is at Pl. Charles de Gaulle, 75008. Skip the line and access the terrace and book your Arc de Triomphe entry ticket here.

13- Obelisk of Luxor

Egyptian Obelisk
The Egyptian Obelisk is a rather unusual landmark in Paris but certainly worth visiting.

The Obelisk of Luxor was given as a gift from Egypt to Paris in 1830.

The Sultan and Viceroy of Egypt, Mehemet Ali, offered the two obelisks that stood at the entrance to the Luxor Temple as a gift of friendship to King Charles X.

The gift was a thank you for Champollion’s role in deciphering hieroglyphs on many newly discovered artefacts from Ancient Egypt.

The Obelisk of Luxor stretches for 22m (72ft) and, due to its shape and positioning, is the largest sundial in the world.

The obelisks are of great historical value, as they were built during the reign of Pharaoh Rameses II in the 13th century BC.

The fountain features four sculptures of important French religious figures during the 17th century.

Each of the four statues on the fountain were designed by a different sculptor.

Each statue also faces one of the four points of a compass, which gave the fountain the nickname of ‘La Fontaine des quatre points cardinaux’ or ‘Fountain of the four cardinal directions.

The statue is a quarter the size of the statue in New York.

Since being made, the statue has moved around Paris and spent time on Pont de Grenelle for the Worlds Fair 1889.

Bartholdi wanted the statue to face the west towards New York however, the presidential inauguration needed to be done from the bridge, so it faced the east.

The peak of Montmartre hill is one of the highest locations in Paris and was once an important location for Pagan worship.

Temples for Roman gods Mars and Neptune were once built at the site before Christians took it over.

An unusual feature of the basilica is its pristine white walls that defy the grey built up by pollutants that coat the city surrounding it.

The white walls are made from travertine limestone, which, when in contact with water, self cleans as it releases calcite.

The collection began as plants grown from alpine seeds however, today, the garden’s collection is now filled with plant samples from mountains all over the world.

As the plants within the garden are all inside the lowered landscape, the gardeners have created a varying microclimate with a temperature difference as significant as 36 degrees Fahrenheit (20 degrees Celsius).

This allows plants from the Atlas Mountains, Himalayas and Japan to live together.

Alpine Garden is at 57 Rue Cuvier, 75005, Paris.

27- Japanese Garden of the Buddhist Pantheon
