Palmier Fountain

The large fountain that sits in the center of Place du Chatelet, Paris, is known as the Palmier Fountain. It was built in 1808 and erected to pay homage to Napoleon’s victory in Egypt. A golden winged figure sits atop the column in the center of the fountain and a number of sphinx surround it, each commemorating a famous battle. The photos were taken on April 12, 2009.
