Fodor's Review:
French and foreign decorations are displayed in the Seine-side Legion of Honor Museum, which is linked to the Tuileries by the elegant, two-tier Solférino footbridge. The original building, the Hôtel de Salm, was constructed in 1786 as one of the largest and grandest mansions in town; not surprisingly, it was burned by the worker-led Paris Commune in 1871. Rebuilt in 1878 in glittering neoclassical style, the building was renovated in 2005.
