Almost in the very centre of Paris, in the 7th municipal arrondissement, is a place unique in its architecture and history - the Hotel des Invalides.
Construction of the Invalides began in 1670 by order of King Louis XIV of France. This complex was supposed to become a place to house former military personnel who were injured in wars.
Under the dome of St Louis Cathedral there are tombs with the ashes of prominent military and military leaders of France. St Louis Cathedral was also the final tomb of Napoleon Bonaparte I, a prominent French military leader. Napoleon's ashes are sealed in six coffins (made of tin, mahogany, lead, ebony and oak), which are placed in a sarcophagus made of red-coloured Karelian stone. It is placed in the centre of the cathedral on a green marble pedestal. The sarcophagus itself and its lid are crowned with laurel wreaths. Around the sarcophagus on the marble floor in gold letters are written the names of the Emperor's victories, including the battle for Moscow. The crypt is surrounded by twelve columns - 12 goddesses of victory.
