Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) was in exile when he died on the Isle of St. Helena. In 1840 the French decided to construct a glorious memorial that was opened in 1853. Five enormous blocks are used as the layout, and listed on the walls are each of Napolean’s victories. Also located in this area is the Musee de l’Armee and the French War Museum.
