About Chaillot Palace
The Palais de Chaillot is a neoclassical Art Deco cultural complex on the Trocadéro hill, directly facing the Eiffel Tower across the Seine. Built in 1937 by architects Léon Azéma, Jacques Carlu, and Louis-Hippolyte Boileau for the International Exhibition, it replaced the earlier Palais du Trocadéro from 1878. The building consists of two curved wings framing a wide open esplanade that offers one of the most direct frontal views of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
