Les Invalides is a network of museums dedicated to war and those who served. The buildings date back to as early as 1704 and have trained soldiers and treated injured ones. The dome of the church is a famous landmark overlooking the city.
Napoleon's tomb is in the Dome Church. It has layers of tin, lead, mohogany ebony and oak.
There was a WW I & II museum. We got a kick out of the French military helmet with a rooster!
We also enjoyed the EXTENSIVE display of Mideavil armor and weapons.http://www.invalides.org/pages/anglais/menu_ang.html
