La Sainte-Chapelle Like many Gothic designs, La Sainte-Chapelle has many gargoyles high atop the church. Gargoyles were mainly used as water spouts projecting from roofs at parapet level and were a common device used to shed rainwater from buildings until the early eighteenth century.
Le Pont de Normandie Just outside Honfleur, France is the incredible Normandy Bridge. You don't expect this type of contemporary design in the middle of the French countryside.
The Horses of the Grand Palais Atop the two corner entrances to the Grand Palais you will find a Quadriga, or a chariot drawn by four horses abreast. They are the the work of French sculptor Georges Récipon, created around 1900. Each entrance is concave, with the quadriga rising a hundred feet above street level. This copper quadriga on the Seine side, Harmony Triumphing Over Discord, weighs 12 tons, yet seems to defy the law of gravity as the horses leap into the air.
