Mur pour la Paix, Peace monument at Champ de Mars, France
The monument consisted of a metal structure covered with wood, stainless steel, and glass panels, measuring 16 meters long and 9 meters high.
The Wall for Peace was inaugurated in March 2000 in front of the Military School and remained there for twenty years until its removal in 2020.
The glass facades displayed the word peace in forty-nine different languages across thirty-two columns, drawing inspiration from Jerusalem's Western Wall.
Located in the Champ de Mars gardens, the monument provided a clear view of the Eiffel Tower and included computer terminals for visitors to submit peace messages.
The structure incorporated thirty internet-connected screens allowing people to view and share messages promoting global peace and understanding.
