The Louvre's pavillon de l'Horloge, refaced in the 1850s at the eastern end of the Nouveau Louvre. The expansion of the Louvre under Napoleon III in the 1850s, known at the time and until the 1980s as the Nouveau Louvre [1] [2] [3] or Louvre de Napoléon III, [4] was an iconic project of the Second French Empire and a centerpiece of its ambitious transformation of Paris.

Marly-le-Roi is the town that developed to serve the château, which was demolished in 1806 after passing into private ownership and being used as a factory. The town is now a bedroom community for Paris. At the Château of Marly, Louis XIV of France escaped from the formal rigors he was constructing at Versailles.
Le Rat Mort ("The Dead Rat") was a popular cafe/restaurant and cabaret in Paris in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Located in the Place Pigalle in the Montmartre District, it was frequented by artists, writers, actors, artist models, and prostitutes, and was a gathering place for lesbians in the evenings.
The café was bought by Jean Louis Hilbert between the two wars and took the name La Palette in 1950. [1] The establishment has two rooms: the tiny bar room, and the larger back room (which used to be a billiard hall [2]) that is adorned with ceramics of the 1930–40s and numerous paintings.
The restaurant was founded in 1898 [2] during the 1900 Paris Exposition at the intersection of 3–5 rue Marbeuf and 27 rue du Boccador neighboring the Hôtel George-V, the Théâtre du Rond-Point, the Théâtre Marigny and the cabaret Crazy Horse between the Champs-Élysées Avenue and the Seine River.
Paris City Hall, Luxembourg Museum - the small museum in the garden of the same name - and Pinacothèque are also among the most attractive exhibition spaces. Many Paris exhibits are also held outdoors, with public display spaces such as the Champs-Élysées, the banks of the Seine or the Champ-de-Mars.
