In the 1990s, a decision was made to revitalize the city based on the construction of an architectural icon.

After the Battle of Jena-Auerstedt fought on October 14, 1806, the victorious Napoleon Bonaparte took the quadriga figure to Paris, where it was to be placed permanently.

Another historian describing the history of the pyramid of Cheops was Diodorus Siculus.

The earthquake of 1375 dealt the final blow to the building.

Members of the Yeomen Warders are popularly called Beefeaters, i.e. beef eaters.

The site for the Opéra Garnier was chosen by Georges-Eugene Haussmann, prefect of the French department of the Seine and considered the urban planner of Paris.

The building has 6514 windows.
