This iconic bridge, built along the Invalides axis, was inaugurated for the Paris Universal Exhibition in 1900. It was intended to symbolize Franco-Russian friendship, established by Alexander III.

Stop 11

This Palace, built in 1897 for the Paris Universal Exhibition, was dedicated to the glory of French art. Its primary purpose is a museum, and it is a vestige of a time before the age of electricity.
