Stone Castles

yes it was because it was the "look out"

== == Oh, Yes. Les Invalides The HÔTEL NATIONAL DES INVALIDES was built as a barracks for 7,000 men - mostly old wounded soldiers - in the reign of Louis XIV. It now houses about 100 old codgers, part of the Army Headquarters, and an enormous Military Museum. The main courtyard, lined with old guns under a grand arcade, is overlooked by the most famous statue of Napoleon, the one known as 'Le Petit Caporal' - enormous hat, brooding expression, hand on wallet, The Museum, which occupies most of the left-hand side of the building, spreads over several floors, and traces the French Army from the Middle Ages to Vietnam. Don't miss the top floor, Le Musée des Plans-reliefs, where there are vast three-dimensional models of fortified towns and battlefields. Observe, too, a strange anomaly. Young people in full-time education are entitled to free entry to all Museums belonging to the state; but Les Invalides belongs to the Army, so you have to pay. In the centre of Les Invalides you will find two churches, back-to-back; St. Louis' and the Dome. Captured flags hang in St. Louis'; there used to be thousands more, but they were burned to prevent their recapture in 1814. Under the Dome, in a crypt specially dug and taking up nearly all the floor space, lie the remains of Napoleon I, brought back from St. Helena in 1840. The body is in a tin coffin inside an iron coffin in a mahogany coffin in a lead coffin in another lead coffin in an ebony coffin in an oak coffin in a five-ton red porphyry sarcophagus on a green granite base. That lot ought to hold the little blighter down. Around him are the tombs of his son and the Marshals of France. The other great claim to fame of Les Invalides is that the French Revolution started here, because it was here that the mob came to steal weapons for the storming of the Bastille. The whole story - Governor's daughter forced to drink cup of blood, and so on - is told at the 'Son et Lumière' performance twice nightly - once in French, once in English. What is Son et Lumière? Well, it means Sound and Light. A play performed by voices and lights. Invisible marching soldiers tramp across the courtyard; the flames of revolution light up the dome. Stirring and impressive stuff, and the performance at Les Invalides was the first of its kind. It tells the story of Napoleon, and manages to do it without once mentioning Waterloo. In front of Les Invalides is the ESPLANADE, a vast open space originally a parade-ground, now laid out as a rather formal park - with the mandatory underground car-park beneath. Notice the old cannon round the entrance, and the two German tanks captured on Place de la Concorde in the battle of Paris in 1944. At the other end is Pont Alexandre III, an iron bridge of a single span, named after the Czar of Russia in 1900 and bristling with statuary of all kinds.

You are looking for a personal property appraiser, preferably one whose subspecialty is fine arts, photography, or antiques. There are two national societies which accredit personal property appraisers, the American Society of Appraisers (http://www.appraisers.org/) and the Appraisers Association of America (http://www.appraisersassoc.org/). Their members have passed educational, ethical, and experience requirements that qualify them as professionals. Of course, they don't work for free. If you're looking for a free or lost cost appraisal that's accurate, don't look online, but instead look for a local appraisal clinic at a fair, charity fund raiser, or a show (antiques, crafts, etc.). If you think the picture might be really valuable, consider taking it to an auction dealer, such as Christie's or Sotheby's, who will give a free opinion of value.

It was used to get under the palisade around the castle

Yes as a stone castle does not rot, burn, or can be attacked manually

Concrete:

*Pros: Extremely strong in compression, can be poured into a form on-site, or pre-fabricated. Can be poured and cured under water, if necessary

*Cons: Very weak under tension, though this can be moderated with steel reinforcement

they were made of strong stone and therefore harder to destroy.
