Pont de Jéna
Description
Also known as the Pont de l'École Militaire, the Pont de Jéna (usually spelled Iéna) was inaugurated in 1813 and cost over 6 million francs to build. This bridge was named after Napoléon's victory over the Prussians in 1806, and in 1815 was saved from destruction by Louis XVIII when the Prussians occupied Paris. The bridge was referred to as the Pont des Invalides until 1830. It was later enlarged in 1914 and 1937 to support the increasing traffic, and is situated adjacent to the Eiffel Tower.
