Napoleon' s Grave and the War Ministry

I was at the War Ministry  and Napoleons Grave yesterday after the Eiffel Tower. There is also Military Chapel there that still hosts ceremonies for fallen solders and generals. My favorite section was the ware museum on  World Ware 1 and 2 weapons.  After that I went to the Napoleon Era Musuem, where it showcased all the history and weapons during Napleon's Wars. It even showcased  weapons from the American Revolution and the Freanch envolovement...you know im a history nerd, so I loved it all. The buildings are so amazing to walk through. Imagine the things that had happended within the walls of the building! Anyways...take a look at some pictures...more to come!
