Best La Madeleine Tours from Frankfurt

Built to honor the victories of Napoleon's army, La Madeleine features neo-classical architecture reminiscent of an ancient Roman temple. The Roman Catholic church's exterior is surrounded by Corinthian columns standing almost 70 feet high. The interior is adorned with statues, bronze bas reliefs and a pipe organ widely considered the best in Paris. Pay special attention to the half-dome located above the altar; its fresco, titled "The History of Christianity" features key figures of the Christian religion, with Napoleon located in the center.
