Which neoclassical arch in Paris is located in the Tuileries Garden?

The Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel is the Neoclassical arch in Paris located in the Tuileries Garden complex.

Napoleon commissioned the monument after his military victories in the Wars of the Third and Fourth Coalitions. Architects Charles Percier and Pierre François Léonard Fontaine designed it, and it was built from 1806 to 1808 as a ceremonial gateway to the Tuileries Palace, the emperor’s residence.

The arch draws directly on Roman imperial triumphal architecture, especially the Arch of Constantine. Its Corinthian columns, battle reliefs, and military statuary celebrate Napoleon’s campaigns. The original crowning quadriga used the Horses of Saint Mark, taken from Venice; after Napoleon’s fall, those horses were returned, and a replacement group was installed in 1828.

It is frequently confused with the larger Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile, which stands west of the Champs-Élysées. The Carrousel arch is much smaller and sits between the Louvre and the former Tuileries Palace site.
