Arc de Triomphe

Place de la Comédie, Montpellier, France

 

Erected in 1691, this monument is one of several built to glorify the monarchy. The carved medallions, dating from 1773, celebrate the achievements of king Louis XIV of France. A small door under the vaulted archway provides access to the interior of the monument and a staircase winds up to the rooftop terrace for a magnificent view of the city. Contact the Office du Tourisme for information on opening times. Free visits are organised on Journees du Patrimoine (heritage days) in September.

  • NONE. JUST VIST IT!

“Ok, this is not the real Arc de Triumphe, but just to stand beneath it, gives you a real sense of what French History is all about.”
