Description:
7èME ARRONDISSEMENT. Part of Hôtel des Invalides, this striking church was originally the complex's royal chapel. Now (as then) a landmark on the skyline, the dome was completed in 1708. It rises to 331 feet at its crowning spire and is a wonderful example of classical French architecture. The structure is the burial place for many military heroes, including Napoleon. In 1989, the dome's exterior gilding was refreshed; twenty pounds of gold leaf were required for the job.
