Luxor Obelisk
The Luxor Obelisk (French: ''Obélisque de Louxor'') is a high Egyptian obelisk standing at the center of the Place de la Concorde in Paris, France. It was originally located at the entrance to Luxor Temple, in Egypt.
== History ==
The Luxor Obelisk is over 3,000 years old and was originally situated outside of Luxor Temple, where its twin remains to this day. It first arrived in Paris on December 21, 1833, having been shipped from Luxor via Alexandria and Cherbourg,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Luxor Obelisk Monument In Paris France )〕 and three years later, on October 25, 1836, was moved to the center of Place de la Concorde by King Louis-Phillipe. It was gifted to France by Muhammed Ali, Khedive of Egypt.
In August 1832, the French paddle ship ''Sphinx'' sailed to Alexandria to rendezvous there with the barge ''Louqsor'', which was to load the Luxor Obelisk and bring it to Paris. ''Sphinx'' then towed ''Louqsor'' back to France. The ships departed on 1 April 1833 and reached Toulon on 10 May. The ships arrived at Cherbourg on 12 August 1833.
