Napoleons Tomb and the Hotel De Invalides

Next to Rodins Museum is the Hotel De Invalides which was a military compound that King Louis XIV had built in the 1600s. It housed a hospice, barraks, hospital and factory. It also had a church. In 1864 the church Napoleons tomb was brought in and is now on display for all to see. After we saw this we went over to the Champs Elysees but I didn't take many photos because me feet hurt and we were exhausted.
