This is mainly a copy of http://www.paris.org/Musees/Invalides/, I think it has to be removed for copyright violation. -- JeLuF 02:58 Jul 21, 2002 (PDT)
section has a big gap.....need reorganization from one with skills to do so. Randalllin 23:21, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
Not all domes are imitations of St Peter's. Mansart's dome is a hemispherical cap that stops the upward movement. St Peter's is an egg-shaped dome with bold ribs that rises to its lantern.

When I visited Paris as a boy (early 1980s) there was a WW1 Renault tank at les Invalides. Is it still there? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 171.192.0.10 (talk • contribs) 10:49, 27 February 2007
When I was in Paris in Sept of 2008, I remember reading something that said that said there were 12-14 veterans from WWII that continued to reside here. Can anyone confirm or deny this with certainty? I have been unable to find an online source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.165.132.252 (talk) 17:12, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
The list of people interred in the vaults includes "Nigel Uno Roman King of Babaganesh". Nigel Uno is the name of a cartoon character from the TV show "Kids Next Door", and Babaganesh is a dish made with eggplant. I suppose it is possible that the cartoon character was named for a historical figure, who ruled a kingdom named Babaganesh, who gave its name to a food, so I'm not going to edit it out. Somebody with more chops in the European and Roman history may want to look into this. Just sayin'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.199.189.6 (talk) 14:12, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

I've been lucky enough to visit the dome and lantern (which are deemed dangerous and not available to the public), and uploaded pictures detailing the architecture of the triple-dome structure, the wooden frame and carpentry, the lantern, the cityscape and other things.
The gallery is available on wikimedia commons. Maybe some of these could be included either in the article itself or some other architectural/historical topic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.6.47.122 (talk) 23:25, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

I have removed a section listing structures whose designs are claimed to be influence by that of Les Invalides. No claim was cited, and the section has been tagged for likely original research for two years. Kablammo (talk) 16:52, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
