The 7th arrondissement of Paris is one of the 20 arrondissements (administrative districts) of the capital city of France.
Situated on the left bank of the River Seine, it contains a number of French national institutions, among them the French National Assembly and numerous government ministries. The 7th arrondissement is also a major tourist destination, being home to the Eiffel Tower and the Hôtel des Invalides, which is Napoléon's resting place.
The land area of the arrondissement is 4.088 km² (1.578 sq. miles, or 1,010 acres).
The 7th arrondissement attained its peak population in 1926 when it had 110,684 inhabitants. Because it is the location of so many French government bodies, this arrondissement has never been as densely populated as some of the others. In 1999, the population was 56,985, while the arrondissement provided 76,212 jobs.
