Originally a church dedicated to St. Genevieve, the Panthéon became a secular mausoleum housing France's distinguished citizens like Voltaire, Rousseau, and Marie Curie. Completed in 1790, its neoclassical design features a dome inspired by Rome's Pantheon. Foucault's pendulum demonstrating Earth's rotation hangs beneath the dome. This image showcases the building's Corinthian columns and pediment sculptures, ideal for educational content about French history, architectural studies of neoclassicism, or biographies of interred luminaries who shaped French culture and science.
