Paris, Ile-de-France Travel Guide
Axe Royal (Royal Axis)
The Axe royal, the “Royal Axis”, which leads from the Louvre up the Champs-Élysées to the large Arc de Triomphe – through the smaller Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel and past the obelisk in Place de la Concorde – used to start at the central pavillion of the Tuilieries Palace which marked the eastern limit of the Jardin des Tuileries. This palace was destroyed in a fire in 1871. The ruins were demolished in 1882, thus extending the Tuilerie gardens towards the Louvre.
