The Panthéon is an impressive and imposing neoclassical edifice in which the remains of the most illustrious Frenchmen and women are kept and their deeds remembered.
When King Louis XV recovered from an illness in 1744 he vowed that he would rebuild the ruined church of Sainte-Geneviève in Paris’s Latin quarter. Work got underway but by the time the building was completed the revolution had transformed the political landscape of France.
The new government ordered that the Pantheon be rededicated as a ‘Temple to Reason’ and that henceforth it would be used not for religious purposes but as a mausoleum for the greatest French intellectuals.
