Palais de Tuileries

The Palais de Tuileries was a historic royal palace in Paris, situated between the Louvre Museum and the Seine River. Built in the 16th century for royal residence, it featured grand architecture and beautiful gardens. Over time, it served as a royal and governmental residence, but was destroyed in the late 19th century during the Paris Commune. Today, the Tuileries Garden and Place du Carrousel occupy the site, offering public spaces, sculptures, and walkways that reflect its historical significance. The palace's remains and grounds continue to influence Parisian architecture and urban design.
