This building allows the passage between the Jardin des Plantes and the Gare d 'Austerlitz (left bank) and the Gare de Lyon station (right bank). Originally built in 1807 to commemorate Napoleon's victory over the Austrians and the Russians, he was rebuilt in 1854 and 1885 for security reasons. Over time, the Emperor's "N" and imperial eagles decorating the frontlines were replaced by a lion identified with flags and arms symbolizing the Republic. However, the bridge preserves a roaring lion holding in his legs a flag of Austerlitz. The monument has the viaduct of Austerlitz, employed for the movement of the mess from line 5.

Un très bel endroit pour prendre des photos de Paris. Le matin côté viaduc d'Austerlitz avec le croisement des métros sur un très bel ouvrage et en fin de journée plutôt côté Notre Dame ! Il y a beaucoup de place pour les piétons avec de larges trottoirs et également des pistes cyclables.

Superbe ouvrage du debut du 19rme en pierre. On relit la gare de Lyon a la gare d'austerlitz avec une vue sur paris magnifique.
