Grande Arche of La Défense

Highlight • Monument

Inaugurated in 1989, the Grande Arche de La Défense is built in line with the historic Parisian axis (former royal road) joining the Arc de Triomphe of the Place de l'Etoile, the Obelisk of the Place de la Concorde , the Tuilleries garden, and the Louvres carroussel.
With its characteristic shape of a large hollowed out cube and its height of 110m, it is the emblematic monument of the business district of La Défense.
