Panthéon in Paris

2.32

The Panthéon is an imposing building located in the 5th arrondissement of Paris, on the hill of Sainte-Geneviève. Originally, it was built as a church dedicated to Saint Genevieve, the patron saint of Paris. However, during the French Revolution, the Panthéon was converted into a mausoleum dedicated to the great men of France. The Panthéon houses the remains of some of the most prominent figures in French history, such as Voltaire, Rousseau, Victor Hugo, and Marie Curie, among others. In addition to its historical significance, the building itself is an architectural marvel, with an impressive neoclassical dome and a monumental façade. Besides functioning as a burial place, the Panthéon has also been used as a venue for important events throughout France's history, such as national funerals and other official ceremonies.
