Description
To celebrate the capture of the Trocadéro fort near Cádiz in Spain by the French in 1823, a celebration was organised for the soldiers upon their return. This was held on the Chaillot hill and centred around a fort made from paperboard. The name Trocadéro has been given to this square since 1827. An equestrian statue of Marshal Foch stands at its centre.
