PARC DU CHAMP DE MARS
( MAP GOOGLE MAP ; Champ de Mars, 7e; Champ de Mars-Tour Eiffel or École Militaire)
Running southeast from the Eiffel Tower, the grassy Champ de Mars - an ideal summer pic-
nic spot - was originally used as a parade ground for the cadets of the 18th-century École
Militaire , the vast French-classical building at the southeastern end of the park which
counts Napoleon Bonaparte among its graduates. The steel-and-etched glass Wall for Peace
memorial (2000) is by Clara Halter.
