Description

Inspired by Trajan's column in Rome, the 44 meter high column was placed in the center of the place Vendôme and was dedicated to the soldiers of the battle of Austerlitz. Cast in bronze from 1200 cannons seized from the Russian and Austrian armies, it is decorated in classical style with bas reliefs representing trophies.
