English: A. Leconte, 38, rue Ste-Croix-de-la-Bretonnerie, Paris. Postcard, posted on the 3rd of May, 1900 ? at rue St. Roch Post Office, Paris 111. Méltóságos Verneda Emilné úrnőnek, Budapest I. Fehérvári ut 6. Scanned on the 22nd of December, 2014. Place Vendôme (French pronunciation: ​[plas vɑ̃dom]) is a square in the 1st arrondissement of Paris, France, located to the north of the Tuileries Gardens and east of the Église de la Madeleine. It is the starting point of the Rue de la Paix. Its regular architecture by Jules Hardouin-Mansart and pedimented screens canted across the corners give the rectangular Place Vendôme the aspect of an octagon. The original Vendôme Column at the center of the square was erected by Napoleon I to commemorate the battle of Austerlitz; it was torn down on 16 May 1871, by decree of the Paris Commune, but subsequently re-erected and remains a prominent feature on the square today.Unknown photographer.
