Question

Whats a good monument in paris to do a project on?

Answer 1

take the obelisque from the Place de la Concorde, it was brought from egypt, it would be good for a project

Answer 2

First off, don't pick the Eiffel Tower. It isn't a monument.

The Arc de Triumph is less known about monument, but you would be able to find a lot of research on it. It is dedicated to Napoleon. It is also easy to draw/build/model if artwork is part of your project.

Email me at [e-mail] if you want some websites with really good research. I know a bunch.

Answer 3

I always liked the Panthéon.  It is located on the Left Bank, in what is called the "Latin Quarter," and it is a monument (former church building), dedicated to the great civilian heroes of France.  There are famous people buried there:  Victor Hugo, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Voltaire, Emile Zola, Marie Curie, and Louis Braille, to name a few.

It is important for me because some of the great political philosophers who formed the philosophical foundation of the American [and French] Revolution are there.  

Oh, yes, if you are interested in science, there is a Léon Foucault exhibit there showing an 1851 experiment which proves the rotation of the Earth (Foucault pendulum suspended from the dome).

Answer 4

It depends on what kind of project it is. But you can pick :

Sainte Chapelle, Basilique St Denis ( French Kings are buried there), or the Hotel des Invalides.

You can also pick more recent monuments such as L'arche de la Défense, or Le Centre Pompidou.
