The Arc de Triomphe in Paris reintroduced its museum, right, with a new permanent exhibition highlighting the history of the site. More than $1.45 million was spent to clean and refurbish the museum in the first major makeover since it opened, in 1929, Jean-Paul Ciret, director of cultural development for Franceâs national monuments, said in a telephone interview. âThe arc is the most symbolic monument of France, like the Eiffel Tower is a symbol of Paris,â he said. The exhibition, officially inaugurated by culture officials on Monday, includes video images showing famous arches throughout Europe and details of the monumentâs frieze. The arch, which opened in 1836, was visited by 1.3 million people last year, more than 80 percent of them foreigners.
