About Pont Alexandre III

Pont Alexandre III is a grand Beaux-Arts deck arch bridge spanning the Seine, linking the Esplanade des Invalides in the 7th arrondissement to the Champs-Élysées/Grand Palais area in the 8th. Opened in 1900 for the Exposition Universelle, the bridge is famous for its elaborate pylons, gilded statues, and its designation as a historic monument. It’s part of the UNESCO World Heritage site Banks of the Seine in Paris (inscribed 1999). While not a seating venue, Pont Alexandre III is a remarkable public landmark used for iconic photography, film shoots, and as a start/finish point for major events like the Paris 2024 Olympic triathlon.

For visitors, the best experience is to walk the bridge and enjoy views of the Seine, with nearby iconic sites like the Pont des Arts, Grand Palais, and the Eiffel Tower in easy reach. When you plan a visit, consider nearby transit options, parking garages, and comfortable stays at nearby luxury hotels. We’ve got you covered with practical details and trusted affiliate hotel and dining partners to help you secure your arrangements with ease.
