Les Invalides is a grand 17th-century complex built by Louis XIV for wounded soldiers, crowned by a gleaming golden dome. Beneath the dome lies the imposing tomb of Napoleon Bonaparte, and the site holds the Army Museum, one of the world's great collections of arms and armor. The complex is large, so budget a few hours to see the tomb and the museum together.
