FRANCE-HERITAGE-NAVAL-NAPOLEON

This picture taken on September 24, 2018 shows Admiral Vincent Campredon, director ot the national navy museum, posing in front of France's Imperial Canoe of Napoleon I before its transfert from the Musee National de la Marine (National Navy Museum) in Paris to the city of Brest for renovation. - To move the boat, a huge breach will be pierced in the wall of the Palais de Chaillot at the Trocadero where the museum is housed, to allow the imperial 18-meter long boat, completed in 1810, out for the first time since 1945. In Brest, the boat will be restored, the crown reassembled, and it will be on view to the public in late 2019. The boat was built for the Emperor's visit to Antwerp to visit the arsenal which he had ordered created a few years earlier. In 1814 the canoe was shipped to Brest and new modifications were made before the visit to Brest of Napoleon III and the Empress Eugenie in 1858.
